I’m not sure if it’s the economy or if people are just really understanding and appreciating the joy they can get by creating something by themselves, as well as enjoying supporting small business where items are individually handmade.

In my personal life as well as business I try to support handmade and local items as best I can. I’d like to start featuring some of the great ideas that I see out there on the world wide interwebz.

First up:
Buying Handmade: Handmade Bridesmaid By Maizie Designs.

Rebecca of Maizie Designs has a wonderful eye for jewelry, and I find myself ordering from her constantly. She’s just recently started working heavily with brides and bridesmaids doing custom orders.
