Makers Market

I love hand-made objects. I’m a long-time crafter, and I admire makers of things for their ingenuity and daring. The depth of resourcefulness encourages me to dig deeper and create what is lacking in the world.

I’ve am a fan of Etsy because of the handmade objects for sale. They make great presents for friends and family when time is short to create.

And now there is another  place where people who make things can sell them to people who like sustainable items in their life. A brand new, curated, farmers market/craft fair style online shop, Makers Market looks like a fabulous place for great pieces for myself and the people I love.  And it’s been created by people I respect tremendously because of their desire to create the world they want to see from what we leave behind.

Since the shop is brand new, there are currently a smallish number of sellers and products. And many of these products are pricey. Handmade takes a lot of time and effort that increases the cost, so if you think the ideals and quality of the work are worth it, the price is reasonable.

If you love handmade, sustainable creations for every part of your life, from home decor, to accessories, to equipment, check out Makers Market. I’ve already found this caffeine necklace that I want.
