About Us
Quinn’s Creations is
located in Neptune Township at the Jersey Shore. Ms. Quinn has been
crafting glass and writing beautiful calligraphy since she was very young.
Her uncle, Monsignor Hugh Quinn was a renowned and talented
calligrapher. The gift of beautiful writing seems to run in the family.
At about ten, Ms. Quinn was instructed in
this skill by her uncle. Her love affair with beautiful writing has
remained strong to this day. As “Uncle Hughie” would say, “The beautiful
writing comes from the heart and the eyes, Frances, not so much by the
hand. You must practice, practice and practice some more to perfect your
talent.
Themes are very popular with brides today. Ms. Quinn will work with the
bride and groom to ensure a beautiful addition to the wedding. Etiquette
requires that the addressing of wedding invitations not be done by
computer but by hand; preferably by a calligrapher. Be it addressing the
envelopes, seating charts, menu’s or favors, she will do it with flair
and style. Each season carries with it wonderful opportunities to design
many parts of the celebration with its beauty. Just let us know what you
like, and we will produce your perfect wedding writing.
In high school at Red Bank Catholic, Ms. Quinn was introduced to a simple
glass etching class and from that day, she loved working with glass.
She prefers to etch clear glass as in wine glasses, windows and doors.
Ms. Quinn also likes to keep the designs on the glass as clear and simple
as possible. Surface etching is her favorite because it gives you the
design – clear and simple- without being gaudy or overdone. She also
loves the Victorian and Art Deco etchings which were so popular in their
time. She will go to any lengths to supply you with the look you love.
In etching mirrors, which we like to call Reflective Reflections, beauty
and inspiration go hand in hand. When Ms. Quinn etches a phrase such as
“Believe” “Love” or “Keep it Simple”, it is a way to look at yourself
while looking at the phrase as a way to remind YOURSELF of the uplifting
message you see. You see yourself along with the message. These are
perfect for inspirational gifts.
Etching front doors gives you the privacy you need while doing it with
great beauty. Ms. Quinn will work closely with you to create the look you
want.
