Meet the maker

  • Hi! My name is Alissa and I am the creator behind Lilybug Cre"A"tions.  Growing up I was always creative,  I loved drawing, painting with my Grandma while we watched Bob Ross, and Crocheting.  After high school I followed my dream and went to nursing school.  I am an RN and have been a nurse for 24 years.  I have been married to my high school sweetheart and best friend for 21 years.  Together we have one beautiful teenage daughter.  My beautiful Lily "Lilybug" a nickname given to her by some very special NICU nurses.  

    I decided when she was about 2 that I wanted to try my hand at sewing, so I bought my first sewing machine a basic singer and started learning how to sew.  I cannot believe I have been sewing now for 11 years, when I look back at my first few pieces I cannot help but chuckle.  But hey we all must start somewhere.

     So, in February of 2020 Lilybug Cre"A"tions was officially started and named after my inspiration: my Lilybug.  For the past few years I have been selling items from my Facebook group.  But this spring I decided to step away from nursing and pursue my small creative handmade dream full time.  I am thankful to my wonderful hard working husband and my beautiful daughter for all of their encouragement and support.

    So... enough about me! I am so excited you are here and I look forward to creating something special for you soon.
