A Crafty Holiday...

Angela Flicker over at The Artists' House, has come up with a wonderful way to spread the word about buying handmade this holiday season. For the Crafty Holiday Blog Hop, a group of bloggers are all writing about why we buy handmade for the holidays, as well as showing a few handmade items we are cosidering buying or are hoping to recieve. Pretty genius, huh?!?!

I try to buy as many handmade gifts as possible during the holidays, as well as for family and friend's birthdays and special occasions. I like knowing that the gifts are unique, well crafted and made by a real person who's put as much love into his/her products as I put into mine.

This year I will be getting my Christmas cards as well as gifts for my family and friends from etsy.... here are a few gifts I'm considering as well as a little wish list of things I'd like. :-)
