I'm a founding member of the New Orleans Craft Mafia, so I try to support my fellow mafia members and I try to check out local designers and write about them in both a local monthly magazine and on my blog. Shopping local and handmade is so much more sustainable in the long run than buying from corporate big-box retailers, plus I love the stories behind each piece.

Sometimes I buy online from an artist's blog or etsy.

This is all great advice, and I don't even sell anything online. I think the name of my personal blog is funny, but this past week a woman refused to do a swap with me because of its name. It was her first impression, it offended her, and she didn't bother to read on and see what I was all about. Just like if I showed up at a job interview filthy or drunk, that was it, she was done with me. I'm not changing the name of anything, thought, because it is a personal blog, not sales, and I like it! Definitely THINK before you choose your name!
