Since one of my newest web obsessions (besides of course Etsy, which provides me that inspirational boost every single day) is the wonderful blogs that I keep uncovering, and so I figured that I should be nice and share the great ones I happen upon. Though blogs have been around for quite a while, I’ve just noticed the quality increasing and the amount of ideas out there is absolutely incredible. This first one is in my top five: Handmade in PA (HIP).
As an offshoot blog of the Pennsylvania Guild of Craftsmen site, their mission is “bringing Pennsylvania artisans & shoppers together.” On the HIP site, you’ll not only find information on PA artists making exciting new work, you’ll see events posted, advice for crafters, guest bloggers, even a recipe for homemade puffy paint (my newest favorite post). The creators are doing an excellent job showcasing the talent that PA has to offer, although I’m positive there’s much more to be uncovered! Can’t wait to see what HIP reports on next.
In addition, there’s a fairly new section of the webpage that maps all local brick and mortar shops that sell handmade within our keystone state. We’re happy to be pinpointed here in Emmaus!
Check out HIP in the near future for ads from OOOH. They are currently in the works!
