Yelena Lipovetsky
Booth 169

New to Saline Craft Show in Booth 169 on 11.8.25 at Saline Middle School will be local resident YELENA LIPOVETSKY. She has been quietly designing hand-felted treasures — whimsical creatures, soft accessories, and cozy décor pieces. “My ideas spring from small, poetic moments: a fox darting across a trail, a pattern in a vintage shawl, the colors of moss on a stone. Needle-felting lets me translate those impressions into tactile objects,” Yelena relates. Sometimes it is a tiny character, sometimes a functional piece like a pouch or throw — they feel like fragments of a story you can hold. “I’ve always had a “maker” streak,” she states and “working with my hands is my reset button.” The rhythm of felting wool, shaping it, adding layers of color and detail, slows Yelena down and makes her feel grounded. Whether it ends up as an animal or a wearable accessory, Yelena continues, “it’s my way of making something warm and lasting out of everyday moments” Entry for this show has changed, so use GPS to find parking and entries at 520 Woodland Dr E or 7265 N Ann Arbor St, Saline or ride the free shuttle from Forvia (former Ford Plant).
Sunny, with a high of 77 and low of 40 degrees. Sunny during the morning, clear in the afternoon and evening,
Nice idea. Thank you to the kids who support this. Seems a bit of diversity in the make-up of the kids leading the group would go a long way to making "everyone" feel welcome. Sadly, not seeing it, at least in what is presented here.
Awful, racist perspective. There is nothing wrong with the "make-up" of these four kids.
Not saying there is anything wrong with those four kids. Really appreciate what they are doing and think it is great. Hardly find it racist to think having folks representative of other "groups" leading the group would go even further to making everyone feel welcome.
As we noticed the rapid deterioration and indentation of the road from all of this truck traffic, which presumably will only get worse as the weather and road surface gets warmer, we have wondered just who is responsible for the cost to repair/replace these roads?
