Welcome
and thank you for stopping by
Kendall's Creations! My name is Kendall Milici and I consider each of my
handmade creations a personalized little jewel to be loved by its new owner.
I graduated from the University of Kentucky
in 1995 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree. When I began my college
education, my intention was to become a graphic designer but I soon realized
that I was more at ease in my drawing and painting classes. While majoring
in painting, I discovered a real passion for fiber arts after one semester
with an incredible teacher/mentor, Arturo Sandoval. After graduation, my
husband and I moved to Boulder, Colorado where we could be surrounded by the
beautiful landscape, climate and quality of life that the Rocky Mountains
offer. In 1999 I decided to try my hand at faux finishing and quickly built
a successful business that I ran for 5 years, until the birth of our first
son in 2003.
I started creating these unique, handmade
baby signs written in French and Italian as baby shower gifts for friends
and family. Inspired by travel through Italy and the beauty of the Italian
and French languages, my signs were always a hit at the showers and after a
great deal of encouragement I decided to make them available on a larger
scale.
I have always been inspired by folk and
tribal art, the beauty and simplicity of ordinary objects, text/language,
European architecture, weathered objects, and decorating magazines. I love
to look at something ordinary and envision that object not just for what it
is, but also for what it could be. As an artist, it always gives me great
pleasure to be able to share these passions and vision with others through
my work.
Kendall's Creations would not be
possible without the support of family and friends - thank you!
