Ideas for Holiday Gift-Giving- buy Fair Trade Crafts!

Posted on 11. Dec, 2008 by Jenny in Resources

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…..
