Greetings!
 
There's a world of wonderful handmade products, and I've created a new blog to help people find them.  We don't have to buy mundane factory made products that thousands of other people have.  We don't have to spend our hard earned money on things that have no resale value because thousands of other people have them.  We don't have to support large-scale business practices that don't seem right to us.  We have other options.
When we buy a handcrafted creation, we help the person who made it.  But we also benefit by getting a product that's made to last, to do its job well, and to look good in the process.  Plus fine handcrafted products bring added value by virtue of being uncommon.  (And that's in addition to being just plain cool to have.)
 
So I'm scouting the range of things handmade, from high quality everyday products to special treasures that just might become family heirlooms.  Please add my blog to your favorites list, and tell your friends about it too, ok?
 
Thanks.
