ReBelle's New Year's Resolutions

One of our resolutions for 2008 is to find replacements for products we carry that are made in sweatshops. About 90-95% of our store is already sweatshop-free, but there area few notions and yarns that we need to find alternatives for.
Our other resolution, is to get more goods by local and independent artisans into the store. Almost 15% of our store features items made in Lexington and surrounding areas. Buying handmade items from independent artisans and small companies gives us a warm fuzzy feeling inside and we want to offer more items both from local area artisans and from crafty people around the country.
