Michigan Made: Bespoke by Feldman
(CBS DETROIT) – Lightweight statement jewelry that shows off your style without giving you a headache. That’s the idea behind leather, hand-cut and handmade earrings being created on the east side of Detroit.
“I moved to Detroit in 2010. And I’ve lived all over, in Arizona, LA, San Francisco, Seattle. When I moved to Detroit, it was the most at home I felt in any place. And I don’t have family here. I didn’t have an established network here. So being so welcomed into the community and really having my roots start to establish in Detroit was important to me. I settled down on the east side of Detroit and just fell in love with the city. So, I’m proud to represent it and now I’ve been in Detroit for longer than I’ve been in any other city,” said Sarah Feldman, the owner and creator of Bespoke by Feldman.
Sarah Feldman first moved to Detroit as an educator, but a severe back injury a few years later caused a change in plans. She began to hand-cut and create leather earrings to keep her mind off of the injury.
“It gave me a sense of both control and hope. When you have a big injury, you kind of have to reevaluate how you do everything. For me, it was my back. I had herniated a few discs. I didn’t feel like I had a lot of control in my life at that time. And so I felt empowered. When I was making jewelry, it was something that I was proud of that I could do without thinking of pain in that moment. And then to see how people reacted and responded to my jewelry really just gave me a sense of pride.”
The response was overwhelming.
“Last year, I left my job in education because I had built up bespoke by Feldman enough, and I actually came into the community and economic development as well.”
Especially her signature 3-1-3 statement pieces, allowing her to change careers.
“I would love to be able to open up a brick-and-mortar one day along the East Warren corridor. That’s where I live. That’s where I work. It’s a really important place to me.”
And leave her imprint on the local art scene in an area all her own.
“I think I’ve really found my niche and what works for me, especially in Detroit. I go to a lot of different markets. And I don’t see a lot of leather artists, and so that’s one of the reasons I love working with the material is because jewelry is beautiful and artists create so much incredible work, and I want to be able to contribute and not take away from someone else’s artistic mark. So, I love being able to work with leather.”
(CBS DETROIT) — Neighbors near the only Michigan Sheetz store welcome the addition to their community and believe expansion is good for state.
“It makes my life a whole lot easier and I love it,” said Wendy Drew, who lives half a mile from the first Michigan Sheetz store. “I use a lot of gas and it’s always cheaper there than the two other gas stations we have.”
However, every community isn’t keen on the proposed expansion of up to 80 new locations of the Pennsylvania-based chain of convenience stores.
Earlier this week, the Middle East and Northern African Chamber of Commerce (MENA) held a panel for independent gas station owners who are concerned about the large chains ability to undercut their prices.
“Sometimes you need competition like that,” said Robert White, who lives near the Romulus location. “You have to play the game.”
“The other two gas stations near me are ridiculous,” said Drew. “And my truck takes a lot of gas. I like Sheetz.”
ORLANDO, Fla. – After a three-game west coast trip, the Orlando Magic have returned home. They’re set to square off with the Detroit Pistons Saturday night for a one-off home game before again hitting the road. Tipoff is set for 7 p.m. ET inside the Kia Center.

The Detroit Tigers were able to have an incredible season in 2024, and arguably the most impressive feat for them was the performance of their ace all season long.
It was an incredible 2024 campaign for the Tigers, as they snapped a lengthy playoff drought and won the American League Wild Card Series against the Houston Astros.
In the middle of the summer, it didn’t look like either of those things were going to happen. At the trade deadline, Detroit traded away most of their talented impending free agents as most teams who are out of contention generally do.
However, the Tigers went on to be one of the best teams in baseball in the second half of the season, and rode that momentum right into the playoffs.
One of the main reasons for the success down the stretch was the performance of Tarik Skubal. The American League Cy Young award winner was simply phenomenal every time he got the ball to start a game, and he was the clear choice for the award.
Recently, the southpaw spoke about how the team playing better in the second half of the year helped him win the award. Also, he spoke the unconventional way Detroit went about managing their pitching staff around him.
“That was a blessing. When I was given the ball every fifth day, I think everyone expected to win,” Skubal said to Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press. “and that’s something I take a ton of pride in. I’m trying to be the same guy and put my team in a position to win every fifth day, and we’ll figure out the other three, four days in between. I think it speaks to what we did. We were able to do those things and probably gave A.J. (Hinch, manager) some long nights, but he was good for it.”
Skubal finished up the season with a 18-4 record, 2.36 ERA, and 228 strikeouts, which led the league.
From start to finish, it was a great campaign, as in his worst month of the season, he only posted a 3.05 ERA.
The southpaw is very much a team player and really passes all the credit along to those around him. Now, after a great run into the playoffs, the Tigers will be hoping to do that again and get even further in 2025.
With their talented lefty leading the way, they know that they will be a favorite to win against pretty much anyone when he is on the mound.
