Maybe Matilda: Handmade Shop Directory

Handmade Shop Directory

I purchased a one month account with Inlinkz so we could have our Crochet Along link up earlier this month (side note: I would definitely recommend Inlinkz if you're looking for a link site--I've never used another, so can't really compare, but their amazing customer service alone was worth the price--I sent them questions twice and both times had them answered within 5 minutes. Not too shabby!).

Well, my $1.99 subscription is now about to expire, and heaven knows I need to get my money's worth out of every single penny I ever spend. I wondered about what sort of link up I could have before my $1.99 was lost and gone forever . . . link up your most hilarious craft failure? Your glamour shot wearing your pajamas in a wheat field? A post you think deserves a few more comments?

I finally settled on what I think is a winner. You know how blog link parties always ask you not to link up an etsy shop, or an item you're selling?

Well, friends, here we go. This is going to be your handmade Christmas shopping source. Link up your handmade shop! Do you sell on etsy? big cartel? artfire? some other handmade site I haven't heard of yet? right through your blog? Wherever you sell, if you love to make things yourself and sell your work, add a link to your shop to the linkup below! I'll make this post a tab at the top of my blog so visitors can find our little handmade shop directory if they want to buy handmade, and I put the linkup end date as far in the future as possible--Dec. 2012--so anyone who comes across this post later on can keep adding their shop for a while. Link 'er on up, and get shopping!

  3. Well, I'm more than a little miffed that you didn't choose a "glamour shot in a wheat field" linkup. I had my faux Anthropologie chevron cardigan all ready, too.
