Buy Handmade this Holiday

I'm sure by now many of you have already started picking out those perfect gifts for family, friends and co-workers. Have you taken the Handmade Pledge? This is a way to avoid the crowded malls and parking lots, avoid killing yourself trying to find that one hot holiday item that is selling for ridiculously inflated prices now on Ebay and will be everywhere sitting on shelves in January, and most of all, really let your friends and family know how much you care by giving that extra special, one of a kind gift. http://www.etsy.com/ is full of these beautiful handmade creations. They have shops that make everything from scrumptious edible delights, scentous bath and body products, clothing, stationary, jewelry, items for the home, toys, and don't forget the wildly bazaar items that will surely get a laugh, just to name a few. Another great bonus is that many of these shops have really great prices and run sales on top of their great prices, too. Forget about shopping in those crazy zoo department stores again!

Save your sanity, and some money, shop from your home in your pjs even, check out the many great shops of Etsy and buy handmade this holiday season!
