Handmade for the Holidays

By Beth

Greetings friends, shop owners and people ready to get their shop on!

handmade for the holidays button

I invite shop owners of handmade goods to link to their shops right here on this Mr. Linky. This is a great way to gain free advertising for the products that you work so hard to create!

I invite shoppers to click on the links and peruse the talent that these amazing people have and once you are done perusing, I invite you to SHOP.

If you are a blogger or you’re on twitter or Facebook, I invite you to share this link (http://www.ishouldbefoldinglaundry.com/2009/11/handmade-for-the-holidays.html) to your friends and readers to let everyone know about the glorious shopping that is HANDMADE.  It’s a whole other beautiful, inspiring, unique and affordable world of shopping that many are not aware of – so share!

And if you’re not a shop owner but you have a favorite shop that you’d like to share…link it up!  Share it with the world.

But remember – the products MUST be handmade.

HAPPY SHOPPING & HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

*remember, throughout the next few weeks I will be featuring handmade items that my friends and I LOVE, if you’d like your product to be featured, you can email me at handmadepieces (at) gmail DOT com for consideration!

    I am going to find it very, very hard to stick to just Christmas shopping off this list and not buy anything for myself.

    I make, and sell, handmade goat’s milk soap, and linen sprays, but I do not have a website that I work from. Hmmm. Maybe I should do that.
