Well, Christmas is almost upon us!  As you all wrap up your holiday gift shopping, just a gentle reminder that giving a handmade gift is not only a promise of something unique and of high quality…it is a wonderful show of support for all of us that have chosen to be part of the handmade movement.  Those of us who believe in the importance of growing handmade economies through craft, cultural heritage and community assets.   Honoring arts, artists and cultural traditions preserves and enriches community life. With technology and the web, this vision has been expanded globally but its meaning is the same; an appreciation of art and the artisan within the global marketplace.  A strong sense of community and a pride in the creation of quality goods and providing excellence in customer service.  So I think I can speak on behalf of our entire community when I say a resounding, “thank you for your support…and Happy Holidays!!”

Here is a selection of gifts that are each an expression of the artists themselves!  We are so proud to present to you the work done by our community!!
