I have begun seeing more and more retail videos lately. It's usually online retailers that make pretty and artistic videos featuring a product for sale in their shop. While it's more work in the short-run, I think it's a good idea and I'm going to have to think about doing it for Finn Handmade in the future.

The Modern Craft Project
Ketel One vodka and Wallpaper magazine have partnered to host The Modern Craft Project. The two companies were accepting applications through March 20th to find contemporary craftsman who combine traditional methods with new materials, technology, or overall aesthetic to create something new and interesting.
In our opinion, a modern craftsman is someone who builds upon the past to create something unmistakeably contemporary.
Prizes include a share of the The Ketel One Legacy-a nice chunk of change to invest back into your business, features in Wallpaper Magazine, wider global exposure, and a chance to take their work to the next level.
Something to keep in mind next time around.

Young Frankk x Pennyweight Jewelry
I really enjoy reading the Pennyweight blog written by Nashville-based Elise Joseph; she has an amazingly keen eye for good, yet simple, design. Her Pintrest and Twitter feeds are quiet lovely as well. With this great design sense, Ms. Pennyweight has begun collaborating with various artists to create limited-run goods sold on her website. My favorite right now is the Brass Cuff made in conjunction with jewelry artist Young Frankk although it sold out so fast. I hope they bring this one back soon.
