Crafty by Nature's Story
Crafty by Nature started up in early 2010 after a handmade holiday gift went over exceptionally well. Most years for Christmas, Karen and Nick would make at least some gifts handmade. Christmas of 2009 was no exception. This time, they had made their own recipe of a gardener's hand salve to go along with their garden-themed gift baskets which were placed in decorative plant pots and filled with gardening supplies. It took about 3 tries and failures before finding the right blend for their new hand salve recipe. Once the recipe came out right, they made many salves for all of the people on their holiday list. Soon after the holidays, people began requesting "more of that wonderful hand salve" for themselves and their friends. One recipient was an outdoor large project electrician who insisted we change our salve name from gardener's to be a "stronger name" because the salve was so great at healing his worn out electrician hands. Today, Karen and Nick use the same exact recipe they originally developed but they renamed it Working Hands Skin Repair. "These lotions really come in handy after a long day of making pottery with the clay drying out our hands," says Nick. We have been making pottery for years and love the earthiness of the whole process. Adding our natural lotions and eventually natural soaps really fit our earthy and eco aspirations, plus it keeps our hands looking and feeling so young. "You'd never guess we are potters by looking at our hands and I owe my pretty hands to all our natural lotions," smiles Karen.
