Local mom and inventor Keli Hazel

Portable Jewelry Cases by Keli's Kreations was the brain child of a local mom who was so convinced her products filled a need in the market place that she quit her day job to pursue her dream. Two years later, the dream has become a reality for this local mom, inventor and entrepreneur. Keli's innovation now allows this devoted mom the flexibility she needs to spend quality time with her children, while providing her family with a steady income. I recently spoke to this enterprising mompreneur.

Keli Hazel said that she always found herself frustrated when packing her jewelry for a trip. She tried every organizer available – rolls, pouches and cases. “Nothing seemed to work and my jewelry always ended up in a jumbled mess,” she explained.

Her “big idea” came in 2007 when Keli envisioned a jewelry travel case with accordion expansion and slip out pads to keep everything organized, protected and easily accessible. A year later, Keli attended a casting call for Everyday Edisons. The panel of experts confirmed that Keli’s creation was an innovation, and that nothing else like it existed in the marketplace. Finally, the marketing guru behind Mr. Coffee helped Keli line up manufacturers, attorneys, designers and freight companies. Portable Jewelry Cases by Keli’s Kreations™ was born.

The new Diva Deluxe™ and Diva Lite™ are highly innovative portable jewelry cases that keep your jewelry organized, safe and easily accessible. Each jewelry organizer is stylish, sophisticated and features four removable pads that allow you to organize your jewelry by ensemble and outfit; so packing is a snap! The hard-sided Diva™ Deluxe and soft-sided Diva Lite™ easily fit into any carry-on bag. Upon arrival at your destination, voila! Your jewelry arrives just as you packed it, not in a jumbled, tangled mess. No other portable jewelry case, organizer or roll can make this claim. The Diva Deluxe™ and The Diva Lite™ are the only products on the market today that totally eliminate frustrating jewelry jumbles. They also make great gifts for those busy women on your list!

Keli Hazel, owner and inventor of Portable Jewelry Cases by Keli’s Kreations™, said, “I am so happy about my new invention. I truly believe it will make life easier for busy women travelers.” She went on to explain, “I am so blessed and I’d love to pay it forward by helping Haven House.” A portion of every sale will be given to Haven House, a non-profit organization that empowers women to rebuild their lives.

To order The Diva Deluxe™ or The Diva Lite™, simply log onto www.kelikreations.com. The cost of the Diva Deluxe™ is $37.99 and includes free shipping. The cost of The Diva Lite™ is $27.99 and also includes free shipping.

Kudos to Keli Hazel, a local mom who put her family first, and went for her dream! Moms across Atlanta salute you.
