Featuring Other Artisans

Sometimes I think it's nice to take the focus off ourselves and enjoy and promote the talent of others.  For better or worse, I've found a giant community working in the handmade movement - and while we're a diverse group, I think the one thing that really units us, our love of creating, and our respect for quality hand crafted goods over mass produced items.


I'll be using this blog to talk about handmade, what it means to me, what it means to those I talk to, and sometimes to promote shops that I think really personify the "handmade movement" that is sweeping America.  One such shop is Jill2Day on Etsy.

Green and Purple Trillium Tunic - $87


Jill's designs are beautiful, and eco friendly as they recycle old garments into new ones, and with Jill's seamstress skills, become more charming than they ever were before.  The handmade and green movements go hand in hand together - more on that in upcoming posts.


Happy Crafting,
- Emma
