\u201cI just have to\u00a0 create,\u201d says Tracey Trefren. \u201cIt\u2019s what keeps me sane.\u201d Working in a high-intensity job as the victim services coordinator at the Jackson police department, Trefren needed an artistic outlet to help her unwind. To do so, Trefren taught painting classes through her Everyone Paints business. Then, COVID hit, and painting classes were put on hold. This meant Trefren had to look for additional ways to implement her creativity. \u201cI just wasn\u2019t being able to create as much and interact with people as much,\u201d says Trefren, \u201cother than my normal job, which is pretty stressful. So I needed some kind of a creative outlet.\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Then one day, as Trefren was keeping her eyes open for ideas, a coworker posted a photo\u2014and it set everything in motion. \u201cIn the background,\u201d says Trefren, \u201cwas this tumbler, and it had the Wyoming flag on it. It was so cool, and so I was like, \u2018I want one of those.\u2019 And I got online, and I couldn\u2019t find them anywhere, and so I figured I\u2019d just make one.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI googled what it was I needed and ordered in a little turner to spin the cups and ordered in some metal cups and some epoxy,\u201d explains Trefren. \u201cI started it in my kitchen and then that quickly proved that it wasn\u2019t going to work out because epoxy has fumes and glitter gets everywhere. . . . Having glitter all over your dining room and kitchen is really not conducive to everyday life.\u201d Trefren\u2019s parents, who own the firework stand in Thayne, cleared a space there for Trefren to create. \u201cI started doing it back there,\u201d says Trefren, \u201cand it just was a trial and error, really just teaching myself how to do it and different techniques that worked and different things that were epic failures.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

After a few tumblers, Trefren was hooked. So much so, that she started Jackalope Press, a business dedicated to creating unique and personalized tumblers. \u201cIt\u2019s just a really great outlet for me. I go into Glitter World\u2014I call my space Glitter World\u2014it sounds so silly, but that\u2019s what I call it. I go into Glitter World, and I\u2019ll tell my family, \u2018Okay, I\u2019m just going to go in and flip a cup or two. I\u2019ll be home in an hour, and they know to multiply that by four because it\u2019s almost impossible for me to go into Glitter world for just an hour. . . . I get in there and I just start creating and I kind of lose all track of the outside world. I love the challenge of it and coming up with ideas that are different or unique. Or when somebody calls me and says, \u2018Hey, I saw this cup, and I want something like it. Can you do something?\u2019 I don\u2019t do the exact same cup. I like to make it my own. To be able to provide people with something that they can have and gift or use, that hopefully means something to them.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Trefren not only sells her own creations but also works with clients to create personalized cups. \u201cIf people have an idea, and they\u2019re like, \u2018I want something for a guy, he really likes hunting turkeys\u2019\u2014I got it for him right at Christmas time. But he didn\u2019t want glitter, so we hand painted wood and then we put the Tetons on it and then we put wild turkeys. I made it how he liked it.\u201d\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

You can work with Trefren to create a personalized tumbler that fits all of your needs. \u201cIt\u2019s really limited by your imagination,\u201d says Trefren.
