Sheri Corey has been in business for 30 years with her start as making appliqués for children's clothing. Over the years her business has evolved into other areas, but her passion for sewing and interior design has continued to flourish. Her newest venture, Sassy Slipcovers, has her wheels turning.
Corey learned to sew from her mother when she was young. She used fabric to make dresses for her dolls. With a desire to stay at home with her children and help provide for her family, she left her nursing job to start Sew Sheri Designs, which evolved to Sassy Slipcovers.
“When I closed the doors to our brick and mortar location, I wanted to provide services to our customers near and far,” said Corey.
And that is where Corey found the perfect solution - become mobile.
“Now I can hit the road, traveling to different locations to provide products and services to our customers,” she said. “I follow the business plans that God has set. We are able to transport all of the necessary tools and equipment to continue creating beautiful slipcovers, pillows, and cushions to the homes of our customers.”
Corey explains that Sassy Slipcovers is the first of its kind mobile sewing studio.
“We come directly to your home, lake, beach or mountain house for the ultimate curbside service,” she said. “We also offer local pick up and delivery in the Birmingham area and will travel just about anywhere.”
She takes pride in running Sassy Slipcovers mobile service. The one-stop shop makes customers’ home beautification process easy and pleasant, and she enjoys knowing that she is not only providing for her family, but is also helping those who seek expertise.
Corey believes in the power of people and community which has helped her business provide personalized service a top priority. More than 30 years later, this dedication and the Sassy Slipcovers community has grown stronger.
Corey sets herself and her businesses apart by continuing to learn about her craft. “I stay up on the current trends of construction and the newest ways to do things properly,” she said. “I am blessed enough to be able to help people make their home beautiful,” she said. “I have such a passion for it.”
