Discovering

Things have been rather slow at work this morning, so I got some time to explore the blogging world. =] I came across these two lovelies that I simply HAD to share with you guys. If you haven't joined, you totally should!!

1.) Buy Handmade: This one is awesome, and I can't believe that I didn't find it sooner! There is a pledge for us to sign, "I pledge to buy handmade for myself and my loved ones, and request that others do the same for me." What are you waiting for? Go there! Sign the button and grab a badge to post on your blog.



2.) Trade Handmade: Love this idea too! The idea was started by Ashley at Under Those Neon Lights. I found the information and button over at Secretly Loves Pink. You can read all about it here. Basically, the idea is to promote yourself and also support other crafters at the same time, by trading! I've done this several times, and I love it! You can trade pretty much anything. I've traded wallets and camera straps for things like blog design, business cards, photo shoots, and jewelry. I'm definitely signing up for this one!
