Emily Welch is the one of the sweetest gals in the HANDmade community. Just one of the reasons we are thrilled to share her with our readers. The second reason? Because her biz, Magnolia Creative Co., is one of our go to places when having a party! We absolutely adore her custom work and her passion. Get to know Emily in our chat with her below. You don't want to miss the amazing giveaway either with not just ONE but 5 different vendors retailed at $345!
1.) Tell us a little about yourself & your Etsy shop.
I'm a wife, mother of two and lover of parties, planning and color! I've always loved to create and make art and my shop shows that. I offer a variety of products including printed and DIY party collateral as well as a full line of ceramic and melamine gifts. I love custom jobs and unique themes for parties!
2.) When did you realize you wanted to open a shop an Etsy?
2.) When did you realize you wanted to open a shop an Etsy?
After my sister-in-law told me about it. It's a fabulous website where you can find so many unique products, who wouldn't want to be a part of that. Last May when I was in New York I was able to visit the Etsy Studio Labs on craft night, it was incredible!
3.) Do you have any personal party planning tips?
3.) Do you have any personal party planning tips?
I love parties, growing up in the South we have a party for everything. I think the most important thing is to have fun and stay focused on the guest of honor because that is what the party is all about! I find it's always helpful to have a pantry full of supplies to make quick hor d'ourves and drinks as well as cute paper plates and napkins or classic clear glass plates so you can always put on a party in a flash no matter what the occasion. I learned that from my mother.
4.) What are some of your favorite Etsy shops?
Way to many to list, I'm sure. I love all the jewelry you can find on Etsy. I've ordered several pieces for myself. I also love all the handmade clothes and bags you can find. I found one of my favorite designers from my daughter on etsy, CourtneyCourtney. Every time I log on I find something new!
5.) What is up next for your shop?
The most important thing are all the new print collections. The holiday ones will be coming out soon along with coordinating ceramic and melamine items. All these new products will be available in the etsy shop and the newly designed website.
