We, at www.BuyMichiganNow.com, are working on our suggestions for great Michigan-made gifts, and I'd love to have some helpful hints. If you make a product or have a favorite we should know about, please let me know. We are looking gifts ideal for kids or adults, men or women, old or young, republican or democrat, yada yada. No product is too big or too small, so long as it comes from the Great Lake State. So, what are your favs?

If you are interested in truly buying Michigan made gifts this summer, come out to all the great Michigan summer art fairs and support your local artists. Maple Days in Walled Lake takes place this Memorial Day and will be a great place to start!
For more details about this and other awesome art fairs this summer, check out:http://joyfulgrrljewelry.b
Hey Kelly, I'll be at Maple Days in Walled Lake too (5/25)... for Gertie Gear pet air beds (www.gertiegear.com). See you there!
And thanks for the art fair list!!
More great ways to find Michigan arts is at your local farmers/artisans markets:
Ann Arbor: The Sunday Artisan Market (313) 333-5117 (www.sundayartisanmarket.org)
Canton: Sunday Farmers Market (734) 394-5323 (http://leisure.canton-mi.org/farmersmarket.aspx)
Gertie Gear will be at these two throughout the summer as well, but there's also Royal Oak, Northville, Garden City, and others on weekdays too!
Great ideas! Another winery that you should add to your list is Vintner's Cellar in Royal Oak. They are a custom winery that can do labeling for special events and they make their own wine on site. www.royaloakwinery.com Lisa and Sheryl are the owners and they are both helpful and fun!
Vintner's is also a franchise opportunity HQ in Burton, MI - the site is www.vintnerscellar.com
Don't forget that the Mt Clemens Art Fair is this weekend! There will be tons of Michigan made items there for sale!

Largest seller in the world of vitamins, cosmetics. Really an overwhelming variety of products including the 'Ribbon' gift program where the recipient gets to chose his own gift from a variety of different 'themed' catalogs.
Any of the cherry products always work good from Traverse city,
Grand Traverse pie co on M59 by mongolian has all michigan based
products including pies , turnovers etc. you can also have business
lunch there. Sharon
The Livio Radio make a great gift. We started and are based in Ferndale. The company is called Myine Electronics. It's a small starter up business.
The Livio Radio featuring Pandora comes at the affordable price of $150. This is a great deal for an internet radio. The Livio has both Pandora which is an online music streaming website, and Recieva which provides over 11,000 internet radio stations. These two systems make the radio easy to use, customizable, and a great present. Here's the website http://tinyurl.com/blog-jnl
