]]> I am trying to make a conscious effort to buy (or make!) handmade gifts for the holidays. I suppose there goes the idea of buying my Mom new dishes – maybe she can be the exception! Then again I could always look for someone who makes dishes…

There is a huge craft fair in our area in November and the beginning of December where I bought a few gifts last year. The local grocery store had coupons for a dollar off the entrance fee and I grabbed up a couple of them already. The fair is in our local coliseum and it is covered from inch to inch in booths – can you imagine the crafty goodness? Some things people were even creating in their booths – I love watching the process. We didn’t get to walk around the entire area last year as it was too big and I had the kids with me.

I Took The Handmade Pledge! BuyHandmade.org

Check out BuyHandmade.org and pledge to buy handmade this holiday season. I’m taking a second look at my gift list now. A few things I’ve already planned to make and it’s just a couple of my nephews I need to think about. I’m sure I can find something boys would like! Oh and when I found this site earlier this week they were at about 280 people pledging, as of this post they are just over 1400!
