Sometime circa , Miss was wandering the streets of a small lovely Illinois town where she happened upon a local grocer who sold colorful hollow creatures — far too expensive for a five year old.

After several years of dormant piñata making, otherwise known as adolescence, Miss Keys found herself in the middle of a neighborhood that led to inspiration and she resurrected her knowledge of the party artform — creating for charity events and having random run-ins with hot pink donkey piñatas.
