Four Reasons To Support US-Based Handmade Artisans

Purchasing from US-based handmade artisans has become more popular over the past few years. When someone decides to buy a handmade item from a US-based artisan, they will receive a unique, one-of-a-kind design. A piece that has been handmade with love and the utmost care and precision.


What exactly is an Artisan?


An artisan is someone who works with their hands. They use many traditional techniques when creating their pieces and are experts in their trade. Our specialty here at Liberty Cottage Design is handmade patriotic and Christian jewelry. You can rest assured knowing that special care has been taken when handcrafting each authentic jewelry piece.




Reasons Why It’s Important To Support US-Based Artisans


Let’s look at a few important reasons to support US-based, handmade artisans.


1. You will receive a high-quality, handmade item, not an item made by a machine or a robot. Every single item is made using the artisan's hands! Items are usually made in a small studio or from an area in the artisan's home, not a large production facility. Thus, making these handmade items is more sustainable for our environment. Most importantly, handmade items do not need to travel thousands and thousands of miles to reach the customer. Why? Because they are made right here in the United States.




2. Their handmade items are well thought out before the creation process begins. They think about things such as the design. Artisans choose the best materials to make their products. These handmade products will last a lifetime.


3. Every handmade item has a story. From the artisan’s shop to the artisan’s personal journey, your item will tell a story and allow you to be a part of that story. Each handmade item is about a person, not a machine.




4. Receive the best customer service in the industry from a real person! You will not be speaking with a recording or a robot when you have questions or need help. Local artisans love connecting and building relationships with their customers. Customers are not just a number; they are a person. If there happens to be a problem with your item or you have a question, a local artisan is willing to help make it right on a more personable level. Building a community around their handmade products is very important to artisans.


US-based artisans support economic growth and boost the economy. Purchasing from one of these artisans also promotes American independence.
