I’m so excited! I came up with the idea for creating a treasury that would focus on the beauty of handmade. And surprisingly I checked and Woot! the treasury was opening in less than a half hour. I was able to easily snag one and it is titled, “The more Handmade…the better.” I understand that etsy is all about handmade, but often, people polish their items till the point that they look like something manufactured by machinery and sold in commercial stores around the world. I wanted to focus on items that just scream that they were made by hand. There is beauty in imperfection. There is value in the time and heart investment of the handmade.
I’d love if you visited my treasury and left me a comment. I was so excited to find several new-to-me etsy sellers and I think you too will enjoy them.

Hi, I'm Robyn and I was Hatched from a Kinder Surprise Egg. Graphic Designer by day, Maker of things by night. I have worked as a graphic artist professionally since I was 16 years old. Went on to get my Bachelors of Art from NIU. I like to share my Artwork online at flickr.com/photos/robayre and on my own personal website http://www.robayre.com. I also have an online shop http://www.robayre.etsy.com where you can find more of my "crafty" sorts of things, as well as a random piece of artwork here and there. Oh, and I'm also an occasional contributor to Artomat (artomat.org).
I love this treasury and I really salute and agree with your comments about handmade! Thanks for say it.
