About Us

JENNIFER FELIX- I have always been very crafty and creative.  I love coming up with new ideas and seeing people’s reactions.  One of my biggest JOYS….is to make people smile.  My husband surprised me one year with an embroidery machine.  I was a stay-at-home mom with my daughter.  I loved every second of being home with her for those 12 months, but I was itching to do something creative.  So, I thought this would be the perfect answer….this could be a great “home based business”.  That way I can still get my creativity out, set my hours and not miss out on anything with my daughter.  After I started “working” on my business for several years, we needed to make it official.  So, my husband and I started thinking of business names.  I loved the number 4 because there were 4 of us in the family.  And since it was going to be a family business, it fit perfectly!  And Shadows came from a double meaning…everybody in the family having a shadow in the business and part of our street name where we used to live.  In 2004, I grew so much, from word of mouth, that I traded my machine in and got a semi-industrial one.  My name was starting to take shape in Lake Mary, FL and the surrounding areas.  I was very proud of what it had become.   The biggest compliment from anybody is telling someone about me and what I do.  Since then, I now have 2 machines and a garment printer.  My husband and my sweet girls, Nicole (9) and Megan (7) are very supportive.  I never rest, which does become a problem some days.  But, one day, I hope my daughters will appreciate the work ethic and dedication I have. Because I LOVE what I do!  And that is SO important to find something you are that passionate about and LOVE to do it every day!  I found this saying and it fits so perfect because it’s a constant reminder to me…..

Enjoy the LITTLE things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the BIG things.
