TQ’s Background

Hello, I’m TQ, the Co-Owner of TM Custom Kreations LLC since 2021. I previously owned MycustomTQs7 since 2016. In 2021, I met the love of my life, and we decided to merge our businesses due to our shared passion. Originally from Jacksonville, Texas, I now live in Phoenix, Arizona ever since I moved there in 2001 to attend Collins College. I graduated with degrees in Visual Communication and Computer Drafting & Design. I’ve always had a passion for art, drawing, design, and computers. Being creative, designing, and painting brings me joy. Unleashing my imagination through art and design is truly fulfilling.

TQ’s Inspiration

I am extremely passionate about what I do, and every minute spent creating something brings me immense joy. Helping others bring their ideas and designs to life is a privilege that allows me to contribute to their creative expression. While I rarely find myself not working on a project, I also cherish quality time with my family and friends. They inspire much of my work as well. Purple holds a special place in my heart, and anything glittery or sparkly instantly brings me delight. Crafting and bringing my ideas to life are activities that truly fulfill me. During my school days, free time was always the highlight for me. It provided an opportunity to let my imagination run wild through drawing and painting. As I grew older, my passion for designing, arts, and crafts only intensified. Now as a business owner, I have the incredible opportunity to pursue what I love doing!

Michelle’s Background

Hi, I’m Michelle, a co-owner of TM Custom Kreations LLC. I grew up in Chicago, IL, and now live in Arizona. I’ve always loved crafting, designing, and bringing my ideas to life. I enjoy interacting with customers, sharing ideas, and hearing the excitement in their voices.

Michelle’s Inspiration

In December 2020, I lost interest in crafting after making a Cancer awareness tumbler and t-shirt for my father who was battling cancer. I thought I could never love crafting again after losing my father. However, I met someone who shares the same passion for crafting. TQ told me, “I’ve seen your work and I won’t let you lose that drive.” Her motivation and support have helped me rediscover my true passion for crafting. Since then, things have only gotten better. We merged our companies and have come back stronger than ever together. We live by our motto… We don’t brag about our craft, we’re just VICIOUS with it. Quality over quantity!
