Welcome to NenaBean Creates!
Hello, My name is Nina many calls me Nena Bean. I’m a wife of an amazing husband, a mother of three beautiful & smart girls and a proud GMOM of three wonderful grandkids. When I was 14 years old my mother brought home a Singer sewing machine that her employer gave to her. I’ve always had a passion for everything sewing and found myself wanting to learn everything there was to learn about this machine.
I found myself immersed in the world of sewing and started making suits for my mother to sewing my first wedding dress. My love of sewing eventually lead me on the path of learning about different machines like the Serger and coverstitch machines. I learned to use these machines to perfect my craft which eventually lead me to the world of Embroidery where I purchased my first embroidery machine.
So in 2005, I wanted to share my talents with others and make a living doing what I loved. Thus turning my passion & dreams into a small business named "Just Sew Boutique".
After taking the leap and start my own small embroidery and monogramming business. In 2010 I began to taping into the world of sublimation and started reinventing my business this is where "NenaBeanCreates" was formed. I invested in high-quality sublimation printers, heatpress machines and all the necessary supplies. I started an Esty shop and began making beautiful sublimation creations.
At first, My business was slow to take off. And I struggled with marketing my services. But I refused to give up. I reached out to neighbors, churches, friends and family, offering them discounts on my services in exchange for referrals and their business. I started attended local school craft fairs, showcasing my work and handing out business cards.
Slowly but surely, My business began to receive more and more orders, and my customer base expanded. I even started to receive requests for custom designs, which I was more than happy to create. My reputation for high-quality work and excellent customer service started spreading, and soon I was receiving orders from all over the country.
Today, my small embroidery, sublimation, and monogramming business is thriving. I am so proud of what I have accomplished and grateful for the opportunity to pursue my passion every day with the world.
Nina aka NenaBean :)
