No, not all of our products are handmade–though many of them are–and that’s OK!
Not all products have to be “handmade” to be amazing and not all products make sense to be made entirely by hand. Products like greeting cards, textiles, and accessories often employ both traditional manufacturing techniques (like using a printing press or textile mill) andhand done techniques (like sewing or silkscreening).
A great example is our Seek & Swoon blankets. They’re beautiful designs come to life in a US based 2nd generation, family owned textile mill. Made from US made recycled yard, that’s both sustainable and durable, Seek & Swoon supports multiple companies within the US and their blankets would be nearly impossible to reproduce entirely by hand.
Plus, there are so many cool tools and machine based techniques out there that let makers create products in a unique way. Who are we to say so no to amazing creative outlets like laser cutters, CNC machines, hydraulic presses, and more?!
If our Creative Partners can express themselves and create a viable business using these tools and techniques, we’re all for it!
But, of course, we also love handmade ‘cause who doesn’t? 😉
