Why Buy Handmade?

Why buy handmade?

Buying Handmade makes for better gift-giving.

The giver of a handmade gift has avoided the parking lots and long lines of the big chain stores in favor of something more meaningful. If the giver has purchased the gift, s/he feels the satisfaction of supporting an artist or crafter directly. 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.

Buying handmade is better for people.

The ascendancy of chain store culture and global manufacturing has left us dressing, furnishing, and decorating alike. We are encouraged to be consumers, not producers, of our own culture. Our ties to the local and human sources of our goods have been lost. Buying handmade helps us reconnect.

Buying handmade is better for the environment.

The accumulating environmental effects of 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

Win Win Win SnugBaby Carrier



Win a SnugBaby sling!

Win a ready-made SnugBaby baby carrier in their fantastic Autumn competition.
A word from SnugBaby:-

"Our SnugBaby baby carriers are made from our most popular base & panel combinations. The slings are reversible, plain on one side, with a patterned accent panel on the other.

SnugBaby baby slings can be used from birth right up to toddlerhood, and your child can be carried in a number of ways - on your front, on your back or on your hip. It is easy to tie and very comfortable to wear, thanks to the way the baby's weight is distributed through the wide padded straps, meaning that it is your back, and not just your shoulders that take the weight of your bundle of joy.

And even if you don't win - not to worry, we also have 2 pairs of BabyLegs leg warmers to give away to runners-up."
