About Us


Joe Bushardt & Clay Spivey / Owners


BAREFOOT LANDING


BROADWAY AT THE BEACH


Joe began painting in craft shows
when he was just thirteen.

History:
Is there really a Joe? Yes, there really is a Joe! Anything Joe's(R)® began in Myrtle Beach, SC in the spring of 1997 with a kiosk at a local mall. But the idea of Anything Joe's has much earlier roots. Founder Joe Bushardt began personalizing items at craft shows at the age of 13. With his family's help, he traveled all over the Southeast doing weekend shows, earning enough money to purchase his first car. Joe went on to graduate from the University of South Carolina with a degree in marketing. Following college he worked as a loan officer with a large regional bank. Joe kept up his crafting all through college and after two years in the banking world, decided to leave banking behind. He put all of his energy into building a business using the art skills he had developed as a teen. As he began in Myrtle Beach, he was joined by partner Clay Spivey who has no background in art but had twenty years of management and public relations and marketing experience in the music industry. Together they have grown Anything Joe's into a nationally known personalizing business with two large retail locations, a catalog and a web site.

The Retail Stores:
Two of our stores are located on South Carolina's "Grand Strand!" One store is located in the charming Barefoot Landing ( www.bflanding.com) shopping complex which looks like a New England fishing village surrounding a 10 acre lake. Most of the 100 shops are actually on stilts in the edge of the lake which is crossed by floating bridges.

In 2004 a second location opened at a Myrtle Beach attraction called Broadway at the Beach.( www.broadwayatthebeach.com ) This store is located on the bow of the Harbor Queen, docked between the Jimmy Buffet Margaritaville and Ripley's Aquarium. This In addition to the personalized items you can order we have a store full of toys, stuffed animals, dolls, kids books, and room accessories. Store hours are 10 AM to 11 PM in the summer months and 10 AM to 9 PM in the fall, 10 AM to 6 PM in the winter, seven days a week.

In 2006 several new franchise stores have opened around the southeast.

The Website:
www.anythingjoes.com is an extension of Anything Joe's® retail operation. Being in a tourist location, many if not most of our customers are from different points around the country. The web site was started in 1999 to make it easier for our out of town customers to order from home. However web shoppers from around the country have found the site and we now ship items to all 50 states.

The Catalog:
Our full color catalog features favorite items from our stores and website. It is mailed once a year in the fall to over 30,000 customers. You may mail or fax in the order forms found there or call in your orders toll free at 877-279-0606.

What happens when I order?
The web and catalog orders are received in our retail stores. All of the items you choose are hand painted after we receive your order. We do not use set patterns or stencils, but do everything freehand. This gives us a lot more freedom and flexibility when creating your gifts. (This also means that your order will vary slightly from the pattern you choose.)

Does Joe still paint?
Yes, he does. And we now have eight artists on staff painting alongside Joe. Some of them have art degrees and some, like Joe, have just painted all of their lives. These artists take great pride in creating one of a kind gifts for you. All of our artist's goals is to produce the most unique personalized gifts yet get it out in a timely fashion.

Customer Satisfaction:
We strive to make each item ordered one that you will be proud to own or give as a gift. We know it is difficult to shop online and know exactly what you are going to get. If you have been in our shop it is easier because you have seen the products firsthand. If you've not had that opportunity feel free to call before placing your order and speak with any of the staff or artists regarding your order so that we can get you exactly what you want. If upon receipt of your order you have questions, please also feel free to call. We are happy to have you as a customer and want to be sure you receive what you ordered.
