We had the good fortune of connecting with Kristie & Jared Miller and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Kristie & Jared, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
ReLoved Creations began from the love of recreating unique pieces of furniture for myself and friends. It originally began as a fun and therapeutic hobby while being a mom and care taker to my Veteran father. We realized we created quality and unique pieces that many people were interested in purchasing, and we also wanted to find a way to give back to the community…..Hence, ReLoved Creations was born!

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
It all began in my garage in Florida. I needed an artistic escape from being a full time mom to two children and care taker for my father, an Air Force /Vietnam veteran who was suffering from Parkinson’s Disease and eventually dementia. Many evening of painting and building took place in that garage. After we moved to Colorado in 2019, the creating continued. I had always wanted to find a way to create beautiful and unique pieces, generate income, give back to the community and do it in a way that the whole family was involved. In 2021 my husband stepped away from his full time job so we could build and expand this business together.

Giving back to the community was a large part of this business. We have lost loved ones to complications from Cerebral Palsy, cancer and Parkinson’s Disease and wanted to find a way to honor those we love. We live by the line of “giving back to those in need, those who deserve and those who have served.”

We recreate and bring back to life old pieces of furniture and also build new treasures such as live edge tables, charcuterie boards and bread boards.

We both enjoy painting, creating and building and after many years of people supporting and encouraging us, this hobby was turned into a business and ReLoved Creations was born!

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
By far, the beauty of nature in this area is my favorite! We enjoy taking friends to Garden of the Gods, Red Rock Open Space, Cheyenne Mountain State Park and North Cheyenne Canyon Park. We also enjoy taking our jeep up into the mountains and seeing all the beauty the Colorado has to offer and see the road less traveled. Camping and snow skiing are our favorite activities.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
Our family and friends…and especially my husband Jared.
