Hello fellow small shop owners and faithful supporters! My name is Elizabeth and I am the creator behind Faimel Micro Fashion. I am a stay-at-home mom by day, elementary teacher by trade, and bow maker by night. Faimel was born just a few months into my maternity leave. Once I left the classroom I quickly felt the need for a creative outlet. That is exactly what my shop has been able to provide for me. There is something beautiful about creating something with your hands and then seeing it somewhere else making memories with you and your little ones. Now that I have been part of this small shop community for two years I can't believe the kinship and support from everyone in this community. I hope to continue making high quality hair accessories for the little wild flower in your life.

Dudley Denim started in February of 2014 after receiving pants and long overalls for my son from family members. We live in South Florida and it is hot 51 out of 52 weeks of the year, so I began to cut off all of the legs and make him shorts. I started experimenting more and more every day with bleach and dye, then ended up opening my own shop that same month. I strive to add the right amount of distressing and bleaching in all the right areas to every item in my shop. I want my pieces to be one of a kind and your favorite wardrobe staples!

Eli came up with the idea for Toki Mats while on maternity leave with her second baby, Shaya. Sitting in her living room on her couch, looking out at all of the small-shop baby decorations and toys she collected while pregnant, she realized there was no place to get down on the floor and safely play with her newborn and toddler. At least, she didn’t have one that was both comfortable and modern. She spent the next year designing and building Toki Mats. Through naptime in those first few months of maternity leave, then late nights after going back work, she did tons of research to make sure she had access to the best materials, designs, and partners. While Eli has a packed schedule with her family and full time job, seeing other families play together on Toki Mats is worth the hustle.

I started making these T-shirts as a fun hobby to pass the time while trapped in the house during a national pandemic, a small creative outlet to help pass the days and time from feeling like Groundhog Day.

When we became parents, we found that the toys our kids played with were overstimulated. They are designed to be consumed at a fast pace. However, the majority of them were made with plastic. When they got thrown out, they would end up in the landfill. We often built cardboard toys for the girls, and we found that the most basic and un-glorified toys spark their creativity and imagination. We were inspired to spread joy with parents and kids around the world. Through Father’s Factory, we are able to bring families together and create memories that would last lifetimes.
Discovering new and fun children's items is kind of our thing! We started by sharing little bits of our lives on Instagram, and eventually fell in love with kid's fashion and trends. Now, we simply can't keep it to ourselves. From monthly curated subscription boxes to our shop full of amazing brands, you're sure to find something to inspire your little ones at Why and Whale! shop.whyandwhale.com

Cabin Fever Goods was started in 2014 during a time when I (Jill) was stuck at home raising my young son and newborn daughter (in addition to nannying two others). I lost a bit of myself during that time. I had always dabbled in a lot of different creative mediums and needed an outlet to relieve stress and spend some time rediscovering myself as an individual. CFG originally started as an embroidery business and quickly changed to handcrafted, small batch candles (2015). My love of home, fragrance, and working with clean, non-toxic ingredients is the driving force behind every product I make.
Wild Copper Rose opened in November 2020. I make bows, headbands, scrunchies and more for momma and tiny babe. I’m a SAHM of two and wanted a space where I could have a creative outlet. I’m inspired by so many other small shop owners and grateful for the positive response to my small shop. I’m honored to create beautiful things for you and yours. -XO, Jackie
