Today I will be sharing TEN amazing shops you can find on Zibbet.com


1. Auntie M Boutique is a daughter, sister, mother and grandmother, but mostly, she is a work in progress (still). She loves taking a great piece of fabric and within in a few hours create something someone (hopefully) will wear and enjoy. She loves wearing aprons, because she says she make such a mess, and that was really how she got started making them. It's been a fun journey. 
She also loves to knit, socks are her favorite. She carries her knitting with her and it often starts people talking... 
She has a son (grown), two grandsons (growing faster than she likes), an awesome cat (Lucky) and a little pomp, Max who takes her for walks...
The name Auntie M came actually from The Wizard of Oz, the first movie she ever saw on TV, and she just happen to be an Aunt and my maiden name is Mott...

You will find aprons & pot holders that match in Auntie M Boutique!

4. Clay Art by Daresa is lovingly created by Daresa who loves working with polymer clay. Her favorite things to create with clay are ornaments, beads, pendants, magnets and figurines. Sometimes she will use up-cycled items like bottle caps, old glass ball ornaments and small tins in her creations. She also incorporates polymer clay beads that she makes into most of her jewelry pieces. She has been working with polymer clay for about 8 years now... it is a lot of fun.

Ever since she can remember, she has always loved being artsy-crafty and is pretty much self taught in everything except crocheting.... her grandmother taught her how to do that when she was a little girl.  She can also draw, paint, create jewelry, play with clay, crochet.

She is a licensed cosmetologist specializing in nails my whole career... she loves doing manicures, pedicures, artificial nails and nail art.
You can also find me on facebooktwitter, and she is also starting to work more on a blog.

5. Georgia Marbles makes APRONS for all members of the family!  All of her APRONS are made in my pet free, smoke free home using an original pattern she created to fit almost everyone. Most of my APRONS are OOAK (one of a kind) but sometimes she does have enough fabric to do matching sets. Please feel free to contact her for CUSTOM ORDERS!
She also has a line of vintage inspired CLOTH PAPER DOLLS . She enjoys adding vintage buttons and lace to them and naming them. They are great little gifts for all! She has HOME DECOR PILLOWS which include BURLAP, VINTAGE BUTTONS, AND MORE!

6. Hannah's Gems - Hanna has been making jewelry for over two years and her work has been sold at fairs and bazaars. She decided to start selling online to keep in touch with her customers and give them easy access to her jewelry.
When she isn't  working with my bent-nose pliers, round-nose pliers, wire cutters, chain-nose pliers, beads, and other tools of the trade; she is on the move taking care of her family.

Making jewelry and having others wear her work has been a life long dream. She works
 mainly with genuine gemstones. Glass beads including the finest Czech fire-polished beads, are used sparingly to bring variety, texture and added color to her pieces. She loves to work with sterling silver, but she has introduced Argentium Silver (nickle free), surgical steel, and silver-plated earwires in some of her designs. She strives to bring you jewelry that is practical and within a descent price range.
7. Izzy's Place is the creation of a Mom of 3 grown children who lives in a lovely New England town called Bethel.  All the charm in the world and easy access to all the shopping in the world!
Since her retirement she is happy to be able to craft all day long.  She loves her little corner of the crafting world.
You can also find her work at www.zibbet.com/izzyknits  and read more at www.izzys-place.blogspot.com
Handmade gifts come from the heart.

8. ume origami folded her first origami paper crane in second grade after reading the story of Sadako and the 1,000 Paper Cranes for a class assignment. It is a story that many of us read as children, but we often forget the message that is desperately tries to tell as we get older… A story of hibakusha suffering, Sadako’s story has become one urging peace and understanding from the level of those on the ground.

She attended a program in Hiroshima (Hiroshima and Peace 2009) and the stories she heard and the people she met have had a profound effect on her. She started brainstorming how she could contribute to the project of peace. So in her spare time, she fold little cranes that she can send on each anniversary of the bombing. Origami is so simple and yet the message is so powerful. When people see a paper crane, they immediately stop and remember Sadako's story.

So since this initial project, her origami journey continued and it branched into all kinds of directions. She opened a small shop online to try and sell her origami jewelry creations. After little success, she tried her hand at folding origami paper dolls and bookmarks. Her hope is that she can continually create and bring the joy of simple paper folding to others around the world.

9. Xquisitely Lady M got into her glorious hobby quite by accident. She got bored one day and decided to teach herself chain maille. Everything seemed to follow from there.

She has two incredible sons, ages 22 and 24, who keep her on her toes more often than not.  She also has a cat named Steve (not my idea LOL) and a lionhead rabbit named Poof because she looks like a giant powder puff with the face of an Ewok.   

10. Paper On Parade - POP embroidery for Personalized Gifts that POP!
POP creative efforts are leaning to machine embroidery and personalizing baby and wedding gifts. Previous venues include designing wedding dresses, dance costumes, square dance outfits, teaching machine embroidery and always sewing for her children plus creating custom picture frame designs in Alaskan art galleries.
