Testimonials

I have been able to make a number of referrals to Handcrafted of local individuals who have been out of work for quite some time, and who lack self-confidence and experience. It is a very nurturing environment, which enables people to grow not only in a skill (such as woodwork), but to also grow as individuals.

Handcrafted builds the confidence and self-worth of everyone they engage with, and provide a second to none experience.
