We’re having a blast making buttons and gathering business cards for our fancy handmade duct tape business card holders at the One of a Kind Show in New York.  But today we will be taking a small break from the Make Something Awesome area to talk about the benefits of buying handmade. 

If you are attending the One of a Kind Show, come to the show stage at 4pm to hear Hello Craft Directors Kim, Kelly and myself discuss the ins and outs of smart handmade shopping. We’ll cover what to look for, where you should be shopping and how buying handmade impacts shoppers, makers and even the environment.
