Buy Local & Save Big
This year while your out and about, think about providers that are local to your area. Their are so many amazing local artisans that produce beautiful hand crafted, and one of a kind items, that make spectacular gifts. Many of these gifts are things that your loved one will see all year long for many years to come.
Types of Artisans You Will Come Across
Some of the local artisans we have seen this week and visited were wood workers making beautiful chairs and rockers, stone carvers, wreath makers, oil painters, silk florists, pottery and ceramic artists and more.
Special Gifts for Special People In Your Life
These talents are wonderful and the products are made with love and pride. You will get a lot more for your money with hand crafted gifts as these are typically life long skills that families pass on for generations. Buying locally will keep your costs down eliminating the postal and fuel costs as well as helping out your local community. Support your community and the people in it. Learn about the artisans and their families and how the craft has come about. The stories are amazing and the people incredible.
