I always loved arts and crafts in school. Every project we made was unique and I made it my own. When I finally finished the project be it a mixed media collage or a birdhouse I would be eager to bring it home to show my Mother and get her approval. She always had a big smile and hug ready for me with lots of praise for my talent. She still has them all til this day!

When I became a Mother in 1990 I was determined to pass on my talents to my beautiful daughter. She soaked it up like a sponge and is now a wonderful artist herself in more ways than I could ever dream of. I am a very proud Mom!

My handmade arts and crafts business started on Etsy in 2008. My product line has changed over the years as my health changed. I am happy to say I am a 10 year Lyme disease survivor. I use my time making products as therapy to keep me happy and positive since now most of my time is spent indoors.

My work has been featured on high traffic blogs for Mom's and on Facebook. I've placed ads in various women based magazines to spread the word about Markets of Sunshine. I offered my handmade products in a gift of the month club for a few years and even did Celebrity Gifting Lounges in 2013.

My goal is turn my Etsy shop into a thriving business so my husband who does all the woodwork in our shops and I can work together along with our daughter who draws all the artwork in our shop and have a true family owned Etsy business.

To do that I have to build up my inventory and get my customer's and friends to spread the word about our shop on social media. So, if you are reading this and have a social media account we would be honored if you would Pin your favorite items in our shop to your Pinterest boards. Or, share a few of our items on your Twitter or Facebook accounts.

We are so thankful and grateful that folks like you like our work and help make it possible for us to reach our goal with our Markets of Sunshine Etsy shop!
