handmade gifts




this year i gave and received handmade gifts. my son gave me a delicate pottery bowl made by carol mose of montreal. my sister gave me notecards of animal "shrouds"by jane kenyon of vancouver. and my friend gave my a wall tile by deb kzyk and ray mackie of nova scotia. and keith loved the hooked mat i made him...



for a number of reasons i made a conscious decision to give handmade gifts this year. i didn't want to shop in the malls. i like to support other craftspeople. i like to buy local. i like to give unique one-of-a-kind gifts. if you would like to read more about "handmade giving" check out buyhandmade
