why buy handmade?

when you purchase handmade gifts for your friends & loved ones, you are not only purchasing a unique gift imbued with the love & creativity of the maker, but you are supporting the new economy.

crafters, artists, and designers are an integral part of the way our economy is being rebuilt. they are the manufacturer, the pr agent, the marketing firm, the accountant…you name it. they support their families. they spend money in your town. they share your values and give back to the same organizations that you do.

don’t take it from me!
