I subscribe to a newsletter about the arts and crafts business written by Maire Loughran. She just recently shared the following article about Wal-Mart now intending to compete in the handcrafted business. What are your thoughts on this? Here is a link to the article:

Connie Eyberg Originals is a blog about creating - learning new techniques, sharing ideas and trying new mediums. I hope you will join me in my journey to find what inspiration may be just around the corner!

Hmmmm, IMHO, what about local artists in the community in which the particular Wal-Mart is in!? Now that I would support and be interested in.
It is hard to believe that WM is in this for the good of the artisian women, but if they are then that is great. I guess we will have to wait and see and hope for the best!
