Introduce Yourself!

[BathSavvy]

Hi Everyone!

I am the manager of BathSavvy here on Etsy. BathSavvy is a family owned and run business right here in Michigan.

I started this new team to promote Michigan Shops, Michigan made products and boost the morale of Michigan Shop Owners.

My only rules are be nice, use the established threads for promotion and if you have time, create some team treasuries with our team tag : mi team

Please stop here first and tell us a little about you and your shop.

Hi everyone,

I moved to Michigan about a year ago from the west coast in order to attend law school. I recently opened my shop here that sells beaded jewelry and misc vintage stuff. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I can reach 100 listings before my fall classes start....that's if my fingers don't fall off from all the beading, lol!

To me this is a place where people can find items that express themselves, bring conversIon to their home, or just make them stop and smile each time they see it! I love vintage albums and am working on a new line of framing and matting unique album covers.

First off Id like to say I am a Ann Arbor native :) I'm in fact new to Etsy by way of my best friend who encouraged me to present and share my creative work to the Etsy community! I hope I can meet and exceed all expectations of all my clients!

I think its so awesome to be a chosen and most importantly trusted to create such an important item such as an Invitation for a client. I believe the Invitation is the key item that allures and impresses your gust first hand, kind of gives them the mood or sets the bar of what they can expect at your event or celebration. With this in mind I always go above and beyond in every creation as if it was going to be used as my own!

Enjoy my shop, and PLEASE come again :)

Hi! My Name is Jen! I started the store AdoptingNations. I live in Mt. Pleasant, and I make anything with FABRICS! I LOVE fabric! I mostly make pillowcases and bags.

Hi everyone,

I started BAB after my own wedding designing was done, and I have having so much fun working in the wedding industry. I really hope that my product takes off - what separates it from other fabric bouquets is that all the fabric comes from scraps or unwearable vintage clothing - so it is sustainable and eco friendly.

I am in Ann Arbor, MI.
