Handmade crafts are gifts delivered from the heart. The crafter put
their 'sweat and tears' into the gift. The person giving the gift took the
time and imagination to find you something not just 'off the rack.'
Handmade gifts are more of a memory, than something that can be seen
weeks later at the department store.
When you buy handmade, you support your local artist community and
your local economy - when you buy handmade, you buy American. You
can be sure that the piece you bought was made by someone with the
freedom to build their own business. By someone with the dedication to
stand by their work, when it leaves their store.

Carol Vega has been a jewelry designer for more than 10 years. She has sold her craft at
many DFW area art and craft shows.
She incorporates her love for the graphic arts into her jewelry. This makes her designs
original and unique. Definitely something that no one else would be wearing. This is one of
the many advantages of buying 'handcrafted'.
When you buy handmade, you support your local artist community and your local economy
- when you buy handmade, you buy American. You can be sure that the piece you bought
was made with love by someone just like you - not made in a factory, assembled by robots.
As you visit arts and crafts shows, exclaiming 'I wish I could do that', you will support the
arts and artists by 'buying that'.
I appreciate your support.
