Visual Art – Orange County

I am Cortney the creator of Coco\'s Hoopla. I create embroidery hoop art. I make my own designs and also custom designs. I am self taught and started embroidering in the fall of 2014. It started out as a fun gift idea for my family but I loved doing it. My sister eventually convinced me to open a shop and I opened my instagram in June of 2015 and my etsy shop in July of 2015. I am a graduate of California State University, Long Beach with degrees in technical theatre and communication studies. I have worked in the childcare industry for about five years. I have a day job as a nanny to two amazing kids and I spend my nights embroidering, with my husband, or at Disneyland.
