Handmade Supplies Resource

posted November 19th, 2007

Many people have taken a pledge to buy handmade: what better way than for crafters to use handmade supplies to make their creations?

This is a list of people on Etsy who make handmade craft supplies, as a resource for crafters everywhere. Shops are added to the list at my own time and discretion. All information was accurate at the time the link was added. These links are not sponsored by anyone. They are sorted alphabetically by category; shops that make more than one supply may be listed multiple times.

My definition of “handmade” requires the item to be made primarily by the seller. Modified items are only allowed if they’re modified to a very significant extent. Sorry, but pendants are specifically excluded from this list because I’ve found that most people use them on their own, not as supplies.

If you are included on this list and would like to be removed for any reason, or feel that your shop is miscategorized, please let me know in the comments. A link back to this page in your blog or Etsy profile would be greatly appreciated!
