I love Michigan!

The State of Michigan has gotten a bad rap lately...

But, there are many great people that live and work here, and I want to showcase some more talent from around the state.

We'll start off with MoonMaidenSoaps. I just purchased a few things from this shop, and what great service! I received my package two days after I ordered. The packaging is gorgeous - and love the products!!!

First I ordered a bar of the Bergamot and Chamomile Goats Milk Soap. I've been looking for calming, soothing scents lately and this sounded right up my alley. It smells so good!!!


I also ordered a gift set, since I couldn't decide if I wanted soap, lotion, or lip balm, so why not get all three? :-) This came beautifully packaged, and I chose lavender for the soap and lotion, and Dreamsicle for the lip butter - which is FABULOUS. I've used it so much the last few days, I think I'll have to buy more soon!





I have also discovered a great store for dog lovers - which I am one! FannieAndSprout has some great dog related items, including these great magnets!



I would also suggest searching Etsy.com for the "Michigan Trolls" group - there are lots of great items from many shops - all made in Michigan!!!!

Kudos for supporting local Michigan goodness. Everyone should take a note from you. We'd turn this one state economic craphole thing around in no time if they did.
