Etsy was where it all began—our little online shop that started this amazing journey. When COVID hit, our first attempt at joining a market, the Knights Christmas Market, shifted to an online pre-order and pick-up event.


By 2021, we took a leap into a physical shelf space, which opened up a whole new world of learning.

Today, we’re proud to be a vendor at *two* Makers’ locations—
* Metrotown in Burnaby
* Guildford Mall in Surrey

We wouldn’t be where we are without your support. We truly appreciate you all ❤️✨

**Meet the Maker**

Hi, I’m Melissa, the creative heart behind Busybee Creates! My journey into entrepreneurship started long before Etsy, when I began selling handmade creations to friends and family. As a young mom, I loved creating unique pieces for my kids’ celebrations, from party labels to personalized decorations. Eventually, I turned my passion into a business, sharing my designs with others who wanted to make their special moments even more memorable.

I hold a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Interior Design from back home and work in the optical field here in Canada. Over the years, I’ve explored countless creative outlets like candle making, soap making, floral arrangements, and gift basket creation, to name a few! In 2014, I started making button pins for **Light the Night for Blood Cancer**, a cause close to my heart. Since then, I’ve been creating custom buttons to celebrate life while donating a portion of proceeds to **Team Chua** in support of Light the Night.

Being a small business owner has taught me so much about running a business. I’ve had to wear many hats—designer, marketer, customer service, and everything in between—while learning to adapt to the ups and downs. It hasn’t always been easy, but the journey has been incredibly rewarding.

At Busybee Creates, we’re all about adapting and growing. Today, we offer custom mugs, pillows, keychains, and more—thoughtful gifts that make a difference. We know change is constant, so follow along as we continue to create heartfelt pieces to celebrate life’s meaningful moments. 💛

The lights may have gone down, but the memories of Vancouver as the final stop of the *Eras* tour will shine forever. ✨

A keepsake to relive the magic—because when it comes to Taylor, it’s never truly over.
