As I’ve mentioned in my last Apartment Update post, I’m looking to slowly add small touches to our apartment. Instead of shopping at big corporations like Target, HomeGoods, Crate&Barrel- I really want to add curated handmade goods to our home. There’s something special about having items that’s made with intent, passion and are carefully curated. It’s also nice to not have the same products as everyone else.
As a society, we’ve gotten so used to mass production of goods and I personally want to move away from that. I want to start supporting local shops a lot more and small shops online that are not local.
I got this wooden ladder from Etsy (color: Early American) and and it was handmade by this maker, Just Knot Wood. Everyday when I look over to that corner, I love that I didn’t buy it off of a big corporation but instead I supported an independent maker that carefully made this ladder for our home.
I’ve pulled together items that I’ve found from local makers & small shops that I would love to eventually add to our apartment:
