You know it's funny but it sounds like you think people who make things with there hands are making junk I can assure you being a maker myself people who have bought my hand made products have almost always paid more because my products are that much better and or different but then the people that buy from me want and expect the best my customers always get all they asked for and more I never compromise on the best quality I can give them " And I get all the money to accomplish that goal"
