Buy Handmade Art

That morning cup of coffee, in a handmade mug, goes from a menial obligation to wake up, to a moment of self care and retrospection before you start your day. Even if you are too tired to contemplate the intricacies of life, what you are holding was made by someone who had a dream.

By buying handmade, you are supporting a real person’s creative endeavors. Your money goes directly to the makers, creators, and artists, instead of large corporations.

Thank you for buying handmade, whether from myself, or another small business.

This is that story.
