Shopping Local This Holiday Season
Part 3: Tina Fagan owner of Moxie Blue
Welcome to Tina’s Moxie Blue. Tina started Moxie Blue in 2019 just before Covid shut everyone down. Like many small business owners, she pushed through and is ready to move forward at full speed!

Tina can be found at many shows around Northwest Wyoming and Southern Montana. You can also see her work at Eternal Light Creations, in Powell, and at Works of Wyoming, in Laramie. As you can see, Tina’s work is largely inspired by her Wyoming roots. She is very proud of our state and strives to create functional art that captures the beautiful state we live in.

“Art is commonly interpreted as wall art. Why not enjoy art everywhere in your home with art you can use anywhere in your home?” -Tina
Although Tina attends so many shows, she would like to move her business over to a custom order based business. When she isn’t working on custom orders, she is creating beautiful, functional, art to submit into juried shows. Shows like the Summer Fair in Billings are shows that are juried and only accept work that is above a specific level of quality.
We have all been hit by the economy the last couple of years. This holiday season, get something truly meant for you. Custom order the exact thing you want and make sure it is functional, made with exceptional quality, and beautiful to look at as well! Make sure to sign up for her email list where she gives away $25 coupons every month.

It is so important that we support the local businesses in our area. These business owners contribute to the community in more ways than we would think. Between donations, the convenience of local commodities, and their social contributions as amazing people, we need to make sure we are giving back and giving thanks to our local businesses.
