This is in infancy. I envision a place where people can bring their love of handcrafted items. To sell, to help and give hints, to find creative ways to fund their passion, and to fuel their creativity. The Facebook page was started in January. The website and store opened on May 1st. A pinterest page for helps and hints is in the works. This is in infancy. I envision a place where people can bring their love of handcrafted items.
