10 REASONS HELP THE COMMUNITY AND THE ARTIST 10 This leads us to studies that show that supporting locally owned independent businesses can work for the betterment for the socie- ty. Instead of our money being spent on mass produced goods and in many cases leaving the country, you can retain all of it by pro- moting local shops, artisans, painters, potters, carpenters and wrought iron workers. THEY ARE UNIQUE 09 One of the most obvious and yet the most unquantifiable reasons to invest in handmade goods is the fact that these products are unique. Many of us like owning something that hasn’t come out of a big factory unit and has a character of its own. EASIER ACCESS TO HANDMADE GOODS 08 The Internet today is brimming with online artisan marketplaces and as a result more and more people have a chance to embrace handcrafted goods. Buying handmade goods online does not only let you have the best in quality but also induces a better under- standing of art. BETTER EXPERIENCE 07 Many studies suggest that handmade goods offer a fuller experi- ence as compared to mass produced goods due to the simple fact they have both intrinsic and extrinsic properties. The knowledge that they are handmade along with the utility they offer is enough to generate a sense of surety and satisfaction in the minds of the user. MEETING YOUR SPECIFIC NEEDS 06 When you are out to purchase handcrafted goods, artisans are mostly open to tweaking and altering some aspects of the product specifically to your needs. This is another reason to choose hand- made goods over factory made items. THE FEEL GOOD FACTOR 05 Most of us tend to favor goods from businesses that stand for a cause or are in the best interests of local artisans and/or creators. It fits the bill well when you want to give back something to the so- ciety. QUALITY IS JUST WAY BETTER 04 What causes most people to shell out more money and invest in handcrafted products is the fact that they are often just better. A study on coffee revealed that 47% respondents found it to be tasti- er when prepared by hand as compared to machine-produced drinks. HANDCRAFTED PRODUCTS ARE VALUED 03 Many studies and experiments have proven time and again that we as social animals are very much affected by the fact that an object we own is considered authentic. A work of art or a piece that is unique or one of its kind would easily find acceptance and more preference when compared with factory made products. GENERATE EMPLOYMENT 02 Spending money on hand-crafted products would help create jobs and generate millions of dollars in local wages. According to a study, just a 10% shift of consumer spending in favor of locally owned handmade businesses could create hundreds of new jobs and ensure a livelihood for thousands. THEY ARE GREEN AND POLLUTION FREE 01 These are clearly more environment friendly as there is no need of any fuel powered machines and complicated production assembly lines to come up with the final product. The work is done com- pletely by hand and that takes up much less energy or power thus making it more environmentally sustainable.
