Coffee, Cats, & Creativity
Caffeinated creative chaos in the company of cats!

Hey There
I'm Jessamyn! Along with my husband, TJ, our two kids, and cats, we're the creative minds behind Coffee, Cats, & Creativity. We've been together for over 17 years, navigating life's ups and downs, learning so much along the way. In recent years, especially since the pandemic, we've made more of an effort to slow down, focus on what truly matters, and find joy in the small moments rather than just going along with the crowd.
​
Both TJ and I work full-time while juggling hobbies and passions alongside the ever-evolving interests of our kids. Through this blog, I hope to create a space to document our adventures, share my creative experiments, and express my love for coffee and cats!
Grab a cup and cuddle up!
At Coffee, Cats, & Creativity, you'll find a mix of creative projects, introspective musing, and cozy family and feline moments. My goal is to inspire you to embrace creativity and find joy in the everyday chaos. Whether you're here to check out my craft experiments, see what TJ's whipping up in the kitchen, or just to enjoy some heartwarming feline antics, you're in the right place! From craft tutorials to personal growth and mindset musings, pet stories to food experimentations, we hope you'll find your next project or feel validated that you aren't the only one feeling lost in this great wide world.
​
I originally wanted to start a blog because I got tired of the "polished" view of life that dominates social media and the blogs designed just to drive viewers. I wanted to create a space for honesty and imperfection, because that's what life is really like. We shouldn't strive for perfection but give it our best shot, regardless of the outcome. Through experimentation, I landed on using this space to document my craft experiments, share my thoughts on challenging times, and showcase my love of my feline friends and a good cup of coffee.
​
After years of focusing on work and family, TJ and I wanted to reconnect with our creative selves. After reading books like Eve Rodsky's Fair Play and Unicorn Space, we came to the realization that creativity was what was missing in our relationship. So through this blog, we want to share some of our creativity with the world.


So grab a cup of your favorite drink and curl up with your favorite feline (or other furry creature) as you join us on this crazy adventure called life. We hope that you like it here and keep an eye out! Once I've gotten more established (and learn my way around the web editing tools) I'll work on getting together a notification list for when our blogs are posted. I'll try to keep up with dual posting on Instagram and adding things periodically to Pinterest. Thanks for joining us for this trip!​
