Hi, I'm Jan! I am a daughter, sister, aunt, wife, mother (not yet a grandmother) and friend to many...including our precious PuppyKids, Jasper, Benny and Rosie. I have always been in Sales of some sort...beginning with Junior Achievement back in high school and continuing into selling Insurance for Prudential, Cars and Trucks (Buick, Chevy, Jeep) and then finally into Interior Designer at Ethan Allen. Along with full-time jobs, I occasionally would have a part-time job such as Mary Kay and being a Process Server. I have always had more than a couple of "irons in the fire" at one time. Now is no different.

I've used my Seamstress skills in sewing Bridal Gowns in my own business "Heart's Desire" for several years and still do continue to sew. I have catered, made wedding cakes for 500 people, made wedding bouquets ("forever" flowers only) and designed and created window treatments for clients as well.

Now I work for myself...from Home. I go to my Home Studio, and create Jewelry, Rosaries, Crocheted Items and More!

I've been "gifted" with talents from the Lord...and I believe these talents should be used to make others feel good while they wear and use them...creating a feeling of warmth from memories of the past, all the while creating new memories.

I love what I do and have decided to open PuppyKids Boutique - which will be a line of ComfortWear for Pups. I have been making clothes for our 3 pups & jewelry for 1 - Jasper, a Maltese - Benny, a Havanese - and Rosie, a Toy Poodle. I even make Necklaces for Rosie, who really LOVES wearing them. I know alot of other people enjoy dressing their pups - either simply for warmth or for fun...and since we have always called our dogs PuppyKids...PuppyKids Boutique (coming in Fall 2012) - maybe not filled to the brim with cute ComfortWear for Pups, but at least several items.

Thanks for reading this...and I hope I can bring a smile to your face with something here at Jan Tanis Designs or PuppyKids Boutique.
