#MarchMeetTheMaker is a great challenge for many creative makers to showcase the social media world their creativity! For this year the month long challenge and strives are bigger and better than before! You can see for yourself a month of creative posting on Instagram and discovering an incredible amount of new talent to follow. As an Etsy shop owner I am participating along with this challenge and couple of my friends are too. I wanted to share along in this blog post a little bit about myself the “face”behind the shop’s name Flymeawaycreations and highlighting two Etsy shop’s!
I’m Angela the owner of Flymeawaycreations, and I was born and raised in NC. I love gardening, art, and especially nature. I wanted to create a shop blending my passions into one, so when you visit the shop you will see the shop inspired by my art, nature, and gardening! I’m a southern girl at heart! I love sweet tea, being outdoors, spending time with my family, and I love being creative! I love using the 3D printer for my designs, which it plays a huge part in the making many of the planters that are listed in the shop. Technology is growing so why not blend it with art and creativity! The idea name behind Flymeawaycreations was helped by my kids and the love of butterflies since I was a little girl.

Lucy Katze, is a small business owner known as, obsessedwithorganics, and a native of Los Angeles, California and currently lives in Michigan. She’s a solo mom of 6 and DIY addict. This vegan hippy animal lover is literally obsessed with organics. Her strange obsessions with all things organic lead her to her Etsy store where you can find vegan organic salve (multipurpose moisturizer) that is available.
A core value that she has always had and now incorporates into her business is the golden rule. Treat others as you wish to be treated. Salve is a definite must in your natural pharmacy. It’s perfect for relieving skin irritations, inflammations and wounds. There is minimal risk of negative skin reaction or allergy because salve contains few and simple ingredients. Plus it’s vegan and cruelty free. Her salve is available at Rare Earth Goods in Ishpeming, Michigan and Madgoodies in Marquette, Michigan.

Jodie, owner of Ornamental by J Phelan, which you can find on Etsy, Facebook, and Instagram, has a unique shop with very cute hand-sewn ornaments! Many years ago she began making animal figurines and other momentous for family and friends. They have either symbolized an event in her life, such as an amazing travel memory, or just been inspired by the world around her. She notes, “I’m always amazed when the picture in my head comes to life in my hands”. Traditionally, she would give these as Christmas gifts, always left as a big surprise until that day. Many people have told her that they love them so much that the figurines are left out year round to enjoy. With their encouragement she opened an Etsy Shop sharing the joy with others by capturing the essence of one moment in time in a small figurine that she created. I hope you too come to enjoy seeing the world thru her eyes and the love of these handmade figurines as much as I do! Jodie has also adopted the reduce/reuse/recycle attitude and started to make decor items by up cycling and re purposing whenever she can.
