Artisans can rejoice a a new kind of e-newspaper has just been launched to serve them.
HandmadeNews.org, powered by AdFire.com, has been developed to offer arts and craft news to an artisan audience.
Unlike other newspapers, the writers of HandmadeNews are artisans themselves with extensive experience in the handmade world and online handmade marketplace.
From business tips to craft projects to new trends in the marketplace, HandmadeNews is the one source destination for news of the handmade world.
The team comprises over 50 writers and 20 to 40 new articles posted every day so readers will find no shortage of articles to meet their needs.
"We wanted to build a newspaper specially designed to fit the news of our artisan community," said John Jacobs, CEO of ArtFire.com.
"HandmadeNews.org will not only offer important information to help artists in their craft business, it will also provide updates from the handmade community."
