How the dream became a reality:
I {Lauren} used to grab my sketchbook and draw out plans for owning my very own "market" for days on end. For years, I dreamed of owning my own bed and breakfast with a little, small-town shop in it with all my faves, from kitchen decor to clothing. Little did I know, the internet would pave the way for this to happen, just the same from our little farm.
​
My entreprenuer spirit always took me on a new adventure, but I finally found a way to do all the things I loved, all under one roof- all while empowering other entrepreneurs like myself. It's been a long time coming, but the JPF Market is a labor of love and couldn't be done without the girls below. They have believed in me, trusted me, and made this market come to life.
​
So, we hope you'll stay a while, shop a lot, and love someone through gifting from our families to yours.

Fulfill by Brooke: Jewelry
About Brooke:
My name is Brooke, and I am married to Bryce and mom to Samantha (9) and Max (8). We live in Greenville, SC, and I can't imagine living in a place we could love any more. Bryce and I have been married for nearly 17 years, and he is my favorite person around. We are community group leaders at our church, and our group has become our family. Our family loves amusement parks, riding trains and watching movies. I am thankful every day for the innumerable blessings God has given me.
​
Her entrepreneurial story:
I have always been a "crafter", and it runs in my family. My mother is extremely creative and gifted in making something from nothing. Three years ago, I made some gifts for friends, including some paintings and a few scarves. Immediately, I heard from friends encouraging me to start a business. I had ZERO interest in that. Like, ZERO. I love making, but branding and handling money are not my strengths, and I was nervous to start something new. After hearing the same refrain from several more friends, I vowed to pray about a business. Doors opened, and I started crafting. I made a little bit of everything (seriously, check out the old photos on IG...not pretty). After about six months, I narrowed it down to jewelry. Jewelry sold the best of all the things I made, and I enjoyed making it the most. It seemed like a no-brainer. After the decision was made to make jewelry exclusively, things started happening that I never could have orchestrated for myself. A contact from a large corporation in my area got in touch with me, and I started making jewelry for all of their events. I very quickly ended up placing jewelry in several stores in my area. The business took off in a way I never could have imagined. I love what I do because it allows me to make something that someone will treasure. Words are an important and vital part of my life, and I relish being able to make something with meaning, with words that carry weight. It is a blessing to me to be able to create. In using my gifts, I have been blessed beyond measure. I know I am doing what God has called me to do, and that is one of the greatest feelings in the world.

A portion of the proceeds from Fulfill by Brooke go to fight human sex-trafficking and to serve and support a Compassion Child.

Shelf143:
Handcrafted Wood Signs
About Stacey:
I'm married with 3 children, 3 dogs, and 1 cat. My oldest is Kendal, middle is Carson and youngest is Ryleigh-Ann. Both Brad and I were born and raised in Greenville, South Carolina where we have lived almost all of our lives. A little over 2 years ago we had this crazy idea of living out in the country, and after some time of searching, we found the perfect home out in Laurens, SC neighboring an Equestrian Center and surrounded by some awesome people. We love it out here!
​
Her entrepreneurial story:
Shelf143 was started in 2013, but I have always loved making things and exploring creative outlets. Shelf143 originally began when I was selling a different kind of decor - framed art made from well-loved children's clothing that was no longer wearable due to stains, tears, etc. I began exploring with paint and canvas and sold those for a bit, Then, one day I used some leftover plywood from our garage to make a deer sign for above our bed. I loved painting on wood so much I posted them on Facebook. The sales started from there! My grandfather was a woodworker - he would build desks, shelves, tables, and clocks. I never thought I would be working with wood and using saws, but I love it!
Shelf143 specializes in handcrafted wooden signs- some of which are made from reclaimed wood and recycled materials. Each piece is cut, sanded, painted, and coated by hand. I love how each of the pieces of wood have their own character - just like the homes and families they become a part of. I love to inspire and encourage others through my signs. I absolutely love seeing how happy each sign makes my customers and I am thankful to have a part in making their houses feel like homes.
Splash Swim Goggles
About Ashley:
I live in the Pacific North West with my husband David and our two children. David and I have been married for over 10 years now. He suffered a severe brain injury just a few years into our marriage. While life has lots of challenges I am thankful for the family the Lord has blessed me with.
Her entrepreneurial story:
I started Splash Swim Goggles in May of 2017. I first came up with the idea for our goggles while getting ready for a family vacation. I noticed the strap on my son's goggles was broken, I was tired of buying new goggles all the time. So thats when I decided to make a different kind of strap. My daughter who hated goggles wanted her own goggles after seeing her brother's "new" goggles. We took their "new" goggles on our trip and they both loved them! My daughter who was only 3 at the time was able to put them on and take them off all by herself without them pulling and tangling her hair. My mom and I noticed how much more comfortable and easy to use the goggles were. The other children at the pool were constantly needing help with their goggles. We soon partnered to make our goggles available to everyone. As a busy mom I love being able to make a product that helps make other's day at the pool a little more fun!
