They combine French & American pastry techniques and pair them with flavor profiles found in both cuisines to create unique and exciting treats!

INBOOZE COCKTAIL KITS

InBooze® is owned by Ashleigh Evans, a mother of 4, former food blogger and cocktail lover.

In 2018, she wanted an easier (and healthier!) way for everyone to enjoy drinks at home.

By infusing with simple fruits, spices and herbs, you know exactly what is in your cocktail!

Ashleigh sources as much locally in Michigan as possible, using as many organic ingredients as she can find. You'll find mainstay flavors like Old Fashioned, Red Wine Sangria and Berry Lavender Lemonade, as well as seasonal varieties. On average, she has 16 options--perfect fit for everyone!

In 2020, as the world got crazy, so did InBooze!

By fall, they realized they needed everything under one roof and found the perfect location in Grandville!

They now have a storefront coming soon, plus a production kitchen and warehouse.

Don't worry, everything is still handmade with care!

They can't thank everyone enough for their support. Their #InBoozeSquad is pretty badass!

InBooze has been featured by Buzzfeed, Oprah, Women's Health Magazine and more!

You can find it in over 300 stores across the country, Macy's and more!

HENNA BY DESIGN MI

"Hi everyone! My name is Danielle, I started Henna By Design MI at the beginning of 2020. I’ve been doing henna for over 7 years and professionally since 2016. I was first introduced to Henna from a speaker who was living in India. She used henna to get to know women and gave me a henna cone. I fell in love with henna the first time I did it. Since then, I’ve been covered in henna. It quickly became one of my favorite art forms."

"My goal with my business is to empower people through my art. Henna has been very therapeutic to me and I love sharing it with others. I often tattoo a word or design onto someone to remind them of hope and love. A lot of people have insecurities of their body and I love seeing the difference of perspective of their bodies after having art drawn on them."

LAVENDER HONEY BAKES

"Hello, I'm Jasmine from Lavender honey. I specialize in custom cookies and cakes. I started baking about 3 years ago for my daughter's 1st birthday."

"It started off mostly for family and friends with a few breaks in between. During 2020, I decided to bake full time, and my business has been growing ever since. I bake mostly for the Holland area and surrounding cities."

KAREL CREATES

KarelCreates offers high quality clay accessories for the modern woman: earrings, hair clips, lanyards, keychains, & more. Earrings are always nickel free; most options are a true sterling silver. All accessories are extremely lightweight no matter the size. Wicker and brass add texture and shine to the already beautiful hand formed polymer clay.

"As a former art teacher, I have years of experience working with ceramic clay. During the pandemic, I lost access to high fire kilns and pottery wheels. In need of a creative outlet, I experimented with polymer clay, and with the help of my husband, jumped in with KarelCreates!"

"On top of an online Etsy shop, we participate in markets across the state, sell in boutiques including Mackinaw Island’s Little Luxuries, & love selling locally in West Michigan with other small businesses any chance we get."

MAGPIE MISCHIEF SHOP

Anni Christie, is a west Michigan native who returned to Michigan in 2019 after fifteen years of teaching art in Florida. As an art teacher, she specialized in illustration as she taught High School drawing and 2D design. During her time as an art teacher, she created large murals and elaborate sculptural paper collages.

It became difficult to work on such a large scale once she had children, and around the time her daughter was born, her great-aunt sent Anni her her first kiln (it traveled from Michigan to Florida). Working with clay allowed Anni to start designing her very own pottery of her dreams. A combination of bright colors, whimsical illustrations, and pieces that are surprisingly functional.

On her return to Michigan, she began working as a full-time potter. She works from her home studio, and Magpie Mischief pottery is currently available on her website, Etsy, and retail shops around the US.
