Eco-Friendly Market Feature no.15-Shared Markets

1000Markets is an amazing venue worthy of exploration. The fabulous members of Eco-Friendly Market often belong to other markets as well. In this feature we take a look at a few of the many wonderful markets that our Eco-Friendly Market members also belong to. Follow along using the image as your guide, starting with Lilac Ave and moving clockwise.

Lilace Ave makes wonderful soy candles like Coconut Lime Upcycled Soy Jar Candle 22oz. The jars are recycled food jars, the wicks are hemp, the wax is renewable soy wax, and even the label comes from recycled paper grocery bags. Lilac Ave is also a member of Homefront Market, a market of shops, all owned by spouses and significant others of members of the uniformed services. Their one common thread is that they are personally involved in supporting our countries on a day-in, day-out basis. Without prejudice, or regard for religion, race, nationality or political views, they keep the homefires burning and our families together, no matter how far apart they are.

Also a member of the Homefront Market, Bowman Originals stands out with their fine jewelry like their gorgeous Laurel Leaf Ring Band with Stripe. This great shop is also a member of Handmade Haven, a market that celebrates talent and craftsmanship and the people behind the product.

A fellow member of Handmade Haven is Pickman. Their hand cut, hand drawn guitar picks are affordable and unique. Art Copper Guitar Pick would make a great gift for any guitar lover. Pickman has also joined Reclaimed To Fame, a market for recycled products that once were used and unwanted and now are restored to their glory.

In Reclaimed to Fame you're sure to find Marjorie's Cracked, recycling broken china, porcelain and ceramic into beautiful jewelry using wire wrap and wire crochet techniques. Butterfly broken china wire crochet necklace is designed from a Medley San Francisco china vase and is totally unique! Marjorie's Cracked is the founder of Reclaimed to Fame. She is also a member of the Garden State Artisans Market, a geographic-based market made up of artisans from New Jersey.

Spoiled Rotten is another member of Garden State Artisans Market and makes a great product, 8 oz Natural Herbal Insect Repellent -Got Bugs? -Vegan, which includes natural plant-based skin moisturizers to condition your skin while the six-essential-oil-blend fights off pesky critters like mosquitoes, chiggers, fleas, and ticks. Spoiled Rotten also belongs to the Succulent Wife's Marketplace, where all the products tell a story, exude a special spirit, and exhibit exquisite craftsmanship.

And finally, Enchanted Cupboard is also a member of Succulent Wife's Marketplace. Her fantastic and special Wedding Cake Toppers are the perfect pair to be custom made and painted in your likeness and are just the right thing to top your wedding cake. Which brings us back to the market that all these great merchants share in common, Eco-Friendly Market, the diverse group of artisans, each committed to hand crafting products that benefit the environment and the community around us.
