Today, I am pleased to tell you about our returning sponsor, BayanHippo Handmade! BayanHippo lives and works in Turkey, but ships all over the world. You can follow along with the BayanHippo story on the blog, or check in on Vildan's new website. In Vildan's words:
"At BayanHippo Handmade, I have had an etsy shop since 2008 and I have been designing a variety of bags/purses for women (and unisex) by using the best materials and workmanship. My goal is to always provide the best material and workmanship with reasonable prices and great service. That is the reason my shop, BayanHippo has many repeat buyers. Once my buyers receives my products, they see the difference and come back for more. Customer satisfaction is very important for Bayanhipppo."
Vildan: 24 hours is not enough most of the time, I have been working so hard to keep up with everything but I always find time to be with my twins and my family. I always feel energized when I spend play time, story telling time with my two sweethearts.
SouleMama: How does the balance of work and family play out for you?
Vildan: I have a great family and we all live close by, it is great to know and feel that all my family members are with me and giving their love and support.
SouleMama: How has motherhood changed the work that you do?
Melanie: I started by business after I became a mother. I could not find things that fit my needs for my twins (like bags!). When I could not find it, I decided to make my own. This is the great connection to be in the same shoes with other mothers, with this I know what mothers really need and design the products in this way.
