Welcome to MKE Three, a new blog series that will feature three Milwaukee things we’re loving each month. MKE Three could include anything from local breweries to new restaurants to our favorite coffee shops to a Milwaukee maker we admire, and everything in between. This week we are featuring one of our favorite local shops, a beer-licious\u00a0soap maker and a Wisconsin artist we can’t stop listening to.<\/p>\n

1. localMKE<\/h3>\n

localMKE<\/a> is shop in the Historic Third Ward that offers a curated collection of U.S.-made goods, many of which are made right here in Milwaukee. Owned by a great couple (who also enjoys the occasional craft brew), localMKE is the perfect destination to find a gift for anyone on your list. Here, you can find local artwork, leather bags, hand-crafted apparel and jewelry, candles, soap, essential oils, coasters and even custom guitars. Stop in for a visit. You won’t regret it.<\/p>\n

2. Soapfixx<\/h3>\n

New to the maker’s scene like us, Soapfixx<\/a> is a one-woman artisan soap maker who’s already making moves. Soapfixx launched in November 2016 and has already created batches upon batches of the best-smelling soap. She offers all natural soap flavors like vanilla custard, lemon drop, lavender, manly man, energy and #relax, but also offers Wisconsin-themed and beer flavors, including Door County Cherry, Wisconsin’s Northwoods, Wisconsin’s Brandy Old Fashioned and Patchouli Amber Ale, made with Lakefront Brewery<\/a>‘s Riverwest Stein. She also creates kid-friendly soaps with rubber ducky bath toys perfect for the little one in your life. Her soaps can be purchased through Instagram or at the Waxwing<\/a> on the East Side.<\/p>\n

3. GGOOLLDD<\/h3>\n

GGOOLLDD<\/a> is a Milwaukee electro-pop band that just released a new EP called Teeth. Inspired by icons like Queen, Black Sabboth and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, GGOOLLDD is led by Baton Rouge native, Margaret Butler. The band was formed on a whim in Wisconsin in 2014 and they haven’t looked back since. In 2017, they won the 88Nine Radio Milwaukee<\/a> Music Award for Band of the Year and will begin a national tour in 2018 kicking off at Union South at UW-Madison on February 9th. We saw them at Summerfest last year and love their catchy, upbeat danceable songs and are excited to see where they’ll go next.<\/p>\n
