If you are here, than you know that my mission and passion is to bring the joy of hand-crafting to everyone. BUT… if time has gotten away from you, or you have extra, last-minute gifts to GIVE and no more time to MAKE, I have an excellent solution for you.
Visit WorldofGood.Ebay.com, and you find a plethora of Fair Trade crafts and goods… jewelry, bags/purses, home decor, garden items, etc. It’s a cooperative, and the mission statement proclaims,“Original Good is a distinctive collection of fair trade products that enable artisans and their families in 34 countries to earn a sustainable living. “
What’s more, the site is also broken down so you can choose a purchase that fits your values- people impact, eco-friendly, animal-friendly, or an area of the world.
The prices are good, too. For example, I found this luscious cuff for only $14.95 US- and with six bucks shipping, that ain’t bad! Shipping times vary, but the estimated time was 6 days. Plenty of time for Chrismas!
Found on WorldofGood.Ebay.com
The bottow line is simple- buy a hand-crafted item from somebody who NEEDS the support- and you have a win-win….. doncha just feel all warm and fuzzy?
Now, don’t forget that while you’re here, you should visit yesterday’s post and leave a comment to win that craft book I’m giving away on Sunday, December 14th, 2008…..
