Welcome to our hive!

Come on in and make yourself at home—we’re so glad you’re here! Whether you’re shopping, creating, or just buzzing around, there’s always something sweet waiting inside. Good vibes, great finds, and friendly faces? Yeah, we’ve got that covered.

The Hive Behind The Hive Collective

Hey y’all! We’re Michelle and Madelyn—a mom-daughter duo with a passion for creativity, community, and a little bit of chaos (the fun kind). What started as a hobby making t-shirts at home has turned into a buzzing boutique full of custom apparel, unique local goods, and big dreams.

Michelle (a.k.a. the queen bee of multitasking) spent 18 years as a stay-at-home mom before turning her creative spark and love for graphic design into a full-fledged business. From sketching logos to slinging tees, she’s all about helping other small businesses stand out—without breaking the bank.

Madelyn, better known in the race car world as Mighty Mads, has been racing since she was 4.5 and can hold her own on the track and in the shop. She's currently taking a break from racing to focus on her next big adventure—welding! After graduating from homeschool, she headed to Northeast Tech to chase her dream of fabricating race cars. She's a maker, a builder, and a creative force in the hive.

Together, we run The Hive Collective—offering custom apparel, graphic design, handmade finds from local vendors, and a welcoming space for creative classes and parties. Our mission? Keep prices fair, support fellow dreamers, and make sure every customer leaves with something they love (and maybe a sticker or two).

Come join the swarm—we can’t wait to meet you!
