Why buy handmade?
- Mass production are a major cause of global warming and the
poisoning of our air, water and soil. Every item you make or
purchase from a small-scale independent artist or crafter strikes
a small blow to the forces of mass production.
- The recipient of the handmade gift receives something that is
one of a kind, and made with care and attention that can be
seen and touched. It is the result of skill and craftsmanship that
is absent in the world of large-scale manufacturing.
- Avoid the parking lots and long lines of the big chain stores in
favor of something more meaningful.

can develop their own business.
