Remember the days when mum used to make guava jam and grandma used to knit sweaters ? Well those days are back :-) In a different way, of course .
Handmade is back with a bang and many credit "Etsy" of ushering in the trend.Etsy is an online platform dedicated to crafts and artisan goods. People are now becoming increasingly interested in handmade stuff as they are greener and more easily customized as you are dealing directly with the artisan of the products.
I was so enchanted with the crochet and knitted items! They can add a very homely touch to your living space.
This is the third appearance of the Singapore Etsy Fair in the outdoor plaza of Capitol Piazza in Stamford Road on the 30th November and 1st of December.
In many ways, handmade and artisan products are the future of retail in the Fourth Industrial Revolution. People would increasingly buy standardized products online and look for unique ones in community spaces.
This was an encouraging space for local crafters and the perfect place to shop for people who prefer bespoke Christmas gifts for their loved ones.
The products in the Craftivist fair were sustainable, had a human touch and a different kind of beauty.
