Sunshine Sam is thrilled to announce that it has been chosen as one of the first featured shops on Etsy Local! Etsy Local is a directory of boutique stores that support independent designers who sell their items on Etsy.

Marlene Lewis, owner of Sunshine Sam, is often asked where she finds so many unique items for her store. The answer is simple: she has spent countless hours combing through Etsy’s offerings to find whimsical and unique items. Marlene seeks out the best of the battery-free toys, handcrafted playthings and quality décor to offer to her clientele both in-store and online. Similarly, she hunts down the most creative seasonal offerings to make holidays and milestones extra-special and theme parties sparkle.

Cate & Levi’s fun animal inspired wall hangings, accessories and puppets; Tweet Toys boats and sling shots; and Artsy Totes featuring animals and other designs by CommonRebels are just a few of Marlene’s favorite Etsy items. Feel free to stop by the store or on the Sunshine Sam website to browse these items and many more!

Marlene’s commitment to offering an exceptional variety of quality items is unparalleled. With the movement to support artists and small business owners in full swing, Sunshine Sam is proud to offer imaginative and innovative items, and to give customers the chance to discover new designers they might not otherwise stumble upon.

Sunshine Sam is excited and honored that Etsy has recognized that Marlene has curated a wonderful array of exceptional items that kids and families love. Check out Sunshine Sam on Etsy here: http://bit.ly/SunshineSamEtsy — and happy shopping!
