Consumers are embracing a slower and more sustainable way of living which filters into all aspects of life, including how we shop. In this blog, we highlight five of our favourite examples where the art of craft is championed through the use of natural materials, artistry and heritage.
As discussed in ‘Craft Culture’ and ‘The Makers Market’, consumers are looking to invest more and more in slow living as well as prioritising wellbeing. This can be achieved in a multitude of ways, but we believe the presence of craft is a good place to start!
The art of craftmanship is mastered through the relationship between our brain and our hands, combined with true passion. Craft has many complexities and it exists in more than one expression. Often we become wrapped up in the uniformity of life that we forget to acknowledge that true craftsmanship is present in all objects, clothing and even buildings surrounding us every day.
