Words to live by…
Words to live by people… If you ever have a doubt over whether you should purchase something mass produced from sweatshops or something full of handmade goodness from an artisan, read the pledge. I flat out refuse to personally wear jewelry that is mass produced. Why wear something that everyone and their Grandmother can get their hands on? With Christmas around the corner, it’s time to support Independent artists and move away from factory made goods.
Run, don’t walk and make your pledge to buy handmade this Holiday season. You won’t be disappointed.
Ok, I’ll step off my soapbox now..

Sorry, comments for this entry are closed at this time.
Amen to that! I’m doing the same this year and with so many of us on tight budgets, it’s good to know our $ will not only mean something to our gift recipients (because we took care to choose their gifts) but it also supports hard working artisans.
Amen to that Sista!
