Why “Elfin View”?

You might wonder, “Why the name Elfin View?” Here’s the story:

  1. A Magical Perspective: “Elfin” hints at something magical and otherworldly. We believe in seeing the world through a lens of wonder and possibility. Just like elves in stories create beautiful, handcrafted items, we bring you unique, artisanal products that add a touch of magic to everyday life.
  2. Small but Mighty: Elves are often portrayed as small creatures with big impact. Similarly, we’re a small business making a big difference. We prove that you don’t need to be huge to create meaningful change.
  3. Nature’s Guardians: In many tales, elves are protectors of nature. This name reminds us of our commitment to sustainability and caring for our planet.
  4. A Fresh Outlook: “View” represents our fresh perspective on shopping and living. We offer a new way to see products – not just as things to buy, but as stories to be part of and values to support.
  5. Whimsy meets Wisdom: Elfin View blends the playful spirit of elves with the clear-sighted wisdom of a thoughtful viewpoint. It’s our way of saying we take our mission seriously, but we do it with joy and creativity.

This name captures the essence of what we do: offering a unique, magical view of the world through carefully chosen, ethically sourced products.

Michaelle Barbor

Michaelle started Elfin View with a big dream. She’s a mom to Chanel and Ripley, and married to her best friend, Brandon.

Living in Haiti, Michaelle saw how damage to nature hurts people. Some of her neighbors worked in sweat shops and though factories just to get by.

These experiences lit a fire in her. She wanted to help people live better while caring for our planet.
