Featured Shop: Minnie and Me

This weeks featured etsy shop is Minnie and Me. This shop is run by Shelbey, an absolutely precious newlywed who adores God and strides to share her faith. Look how cute she and her new hubby are!

 Here is a little bit of what Shelbey has to say about herself:

"Ever since I was a little girl I’ve always loved to work with my hands. I love the outcome of a project or a craft that in the end you can say, “I made it myself”. It’s so rewarding. My mom and dad were a big inspiration to me growing up. They built their own home and it is absolutely gorgeous. On weekends they are always working on home projects and I think that is where I received my drive for my own projects. Luckily, I married a wonderful man who supports me and loves home improvements as well. We do not have a lot of experience in home improvements as a couple, but we are gaining a lot of trust and knowledge from one home improvement to the next."
Isn't this pin beautiful?

 
"I have been making my marble and wire crosses for over 8 years, that’s almost a third of my life! (I turn 21 next month.) I’ve loved improving on them and making them a very sound product. My crosses are something that I am very proud of. I get to work with my hands and in the end I have not only made a beautiful product, but I have shared my faith. I began making my Pins of Faith 2 years ago when my best friend asked me if there was anything I could make that was a cross but was small enough that she could give to several people. I whipped those up on the spot and I absolutely love them. I have one on my purse. "



This pin comes in a color for everyone

"Minnie and Me was born in my first apartment during my first semester of college. I had been making my crosses and selling them, but then I stumbled upon Etsy and fell in love with all the handmade products. I knew I had to be a part of the community. Minnie is my little dog who I love dearly. It was always “Minnie and Me” in my apartment and for a very important part of my life. "

  
I collect crosses and love this wall cross

"I love to be able to stay at home with online classes and my Etsy business. I would love for my Etsy business to take off to where I had orders every week. My dream job is to be a stay at home momma while bringing in an extra income through the gift of crafting that God has given me."

The cross Pins of Faith are so delicate and precious! And all of the colors are lovely, I think my most favorites are the Blue Green and the Light Blue (which looks like aquamarine, my birthstone.)
