People really do say the wildest things at craft f People really do say the wildest things at craft fairs. 🤯

We’re not mad about it—it’s just… wow. Sometimes you can’t help but laugh.

As vendors and craft fair producers, we know part of the job is helping folks understand the why behind buying handmade:
 ✨ Every piece has a human behind it.
 ✨ Handmade isn’t mass-produced (and that’s the point).
 ✨ Buying local keeps money in your community.

So while we can laugh at the “Did you make all this yourself?” or “I saw something like this at Target” comments… we also know moments like that are opportunities to share the real value of independent makers.

Because when you choose handmade, you’re not just buying a product—you’re supporting someone’s dream, skill, and livelihood. ❤️
