About Mumbo Jumbo Boutique

Hi Everyone; My name is Sherry Nelson, and I am the Proprietress of Mumbo Jumbo. I want to tell you a little about myself. I have been in the retail business for about 20 years here in Arizona. I spent several inspiring years in the Antique business. It was the hunt that was the best for me! My passion for finding that unusual piece of furniture or collectable is what built our business and created our reputation of uniqueness . About five years ago I decided I wanted to follow another passion of mine …clothes, shoes, and accessories! And my first love is the Victorian Era! I wanted to carry a collection of Victorian inspired clothing, jewelry and hats that would be comfortable and easy to wear, yet captured the grace and style of an era gone by. Feminine, wearable styles that offered a fun charm, specially suited to our sunny Arizona weather. While in the Antique business I found Elsie Massey! Wow, I immediately fell in love with her wonderful original designs. This lady knows what she is doing! She is a 4th generation hat maker. I have a wonderful selection of her hats, from large Touring hats, walk in the park hats, to riding hats, and our fun Mad Hatter collection! Every woman needs at least one sensational hat in her wardrobe. Another great collection is our recycled denim handbags. The bags are wonderfully made - be sure to check them out, especially the one shaped like a high heel boot! Just too much fun! I have fun clothes and accessories too, but, like the Antiques, I hunt for those unusual pieces of jewelry, gift items, accessories and clothing. Especially the Vintage inspired clothes. Like the beautiful era of a time gone by, every woman should have those romantic, classic , and timeless pieces in her closet……. This is my dream, this is Mumbo Jumbo. Sherry
