Michigan Etsy Shop of the Day: Bloomfield Hills

Shop of the Day: Design by Byn.

There are several great shops in Bloomfield Hills and it was hard to choose, but something about my early '80s upbringing kept bringing me back to this shop. I can't help it -- I want to snuggle up with this robot...

Michigan Etsy Shops of the Day: Birmingham

There are several talented artists in Birmingham with Etsy shops and -- although there aren't dozens like other cities -- I think I have no choice but select two. I really like both of these artists for very different reasons.

Patrick Irla Jewelry. features exquisite jewelry -- sadly most of which I can't afford. BUT for those of you who can, I want to share it. It's truly beautiful.



HolloDesigns gives me a more affordable outlet to feed my stationary addiction.

Although this is the only shop in Big Rapids, it's not lacking in many kinds of items to choose from, including blankets, jewelry, scarves, photo albums and much more!

Michigan Etsy Shop of the Day: Berkley

Shop of the Day: Forest Creations.

Although there were several amazing shops in Berkley to choose from, I ended up choosing Forest Creations. I like to think I randomly choose shops because I just get "a feeling." This time, the feeling may or may not have been this sailing bookmark.

Here is some great jewelry out of Southwest Michigan -- quite a variety to choose from!Some of the stones make me feel like I'm looking at a painting. Great stuff!

Michigan Etsy Shop of the Day: Belleville

Shop of the Day: Grandpa's Workshop.

Here is some amazing woodworking from Bob, a grandpa of two who started toiling away in his workshop in 8th grade. I especially love the candlestick and I sort of wish my pile of apples was in the large bowl right now...
