This holiday season, take a stand against cookie-cutter consumerism, sweatshop labor, and rampant environmental destruction by pledging to buy and receive handmade gifts at BuyHandmade.org.
Created by the Handmade Consortium, consisting of Etsy, Craftster.org, Indiepublic, Craft:, Design Sponge, the American Craft Council, the Austin Craft Mafia, Burda Style, and Interweave, the site allows you to sign your virtual John Hancock and then jot off notes to your friends and family. Got a Web site? Display the "I Took the Handmade Pledge" badge with pride. ::BuyHandmade.org
