Hand Made with Love

San Diego, California

Top shop for gifts.

A buyer bought a gift from this shop and gave it a 5-star review!

Announcement    IMPORTANT SHOP UPDATE:

Beginning June 1, 2023, our shop prices will be updated to more appropriately reflect the materials, labor and expertise involved in production. For many years, I have underpaid and undervalued myself as an artist, (as many of us do) and this is not sustainable for this business or my own personal life.

To put things delicately, we have been charging sweatshop prices for couture quality. Some of the pieces in this shop require upwards of twenty hours to produce, and the cost of that labor has never been reflected in the purchase price due to the fear of people not wanting to pay the fair price for the piece. The reality is that I am not Jeffrey Bezos, and this is not fast fashion. It is art, and the price should reflect that.

On June first, some items in our shop will see a dramatic shift, but there will be some (like stickers!) that will remain at a lower price point reflective of the cost of their production. I will also continue to add printed designs here and in my other sales channels, so there will always be a more budget friendly choice for those who want to wear or carry my art at a lower cost.

Please trust that I have carefully thought through every change that will occur and feel free to reach out via direct message if you have any questions. In the meantime, you have until June to take advantage of my foolishness and get a great deal!
