Shop Indiana Artisan

Just in time for holiday shopping and wish list-making, Indiana Artisan has launched an online store that features nearly 300 items made by the artists and foodists whose exceptional work is the stuff of the high-quality Indiana brand.

Like the annual Indiana Artisan Marketplace, the online Artisan store includes items that fit all budgets. Currently, 115 products are priced at $25 or less. As an introductory offer, the store has flat-rate shipping; no matter the weight or U.S. destination, packages will ship for $6.95.

The store is one more way that the 5-year-old nonprofit is helping the more than 250 artisans in 56 counties expand their markets and boost their local economy. Through a partnership with Gaither Family Resources, Indiana Artisan will ship orders within 24 hours of receiving them at no cost to the artisans.

The site is easy to navigate and customer friendly. A directory at the top of every page lets viewers shop in 22 categories, including kitchenware, bath and body, jewelry, foods, and fine art. For those who have favorite Artisans or items, a search box quickly locates them. A county search is planned.
