Nov 19 American Made Matters Day

I don't make a dime off this post. This is in support of WORKERS in the USA that pay taxes.

I'm talking about the hand-crafted items -- not the resale shit (which actually hurts Etsy craftpersons).

Also, look around your local area for holiday boutiques. A lot of them are just home craftspersons trying to supplement their income. (Beware of the resellers selling cheap "10 bracelets for 99 cents" sellers. All made in China, likely with slave labor and almost always made with lead paint.)
