CharleyJo's began in 2012 when I bought my first embroidery machine to experiment with by making my two-month-old daughter a bib.
My husband is in the United States Air Force, and soon after we were married was deployed to Korea for one year. I worked as a Real Estate Agent/Property Manager during the day and at night would work on my Etsy store. It kept me busy - as if having a full-time job and a baby was not enough.
When my husband’s orders sent us to the UK, I started making some shirts for new friends. Now 11 years later, I am happy to be creating custom projects for my clients full time.
