What is a Sneak Attack?
It's a way to support independant artisans who are trying to sell their wares online. Two days a week at an appointed time, an Etsy shop with few or no sales is announced on this site. As many people as possible then buy items from that shop, resulting in a frenzy of surprise business to the unsuspecting shop! To the upper right is the current Sneak Attack schedule. To participate, show up on this site at or soon after the time of the next attack and you'll see the chosen shop name in the box above. Then go to that shop and purchase an item, making sure to include the words "Sneak Attack" in the "message to seller". It's also fun to tune into the current thread on Etsy to talk about it with other "attackers".

September 24th: We’ve upgraded to Wordpress!
I’m pleased to announce that now the Handmade Movement blog is, well, really a blog! We’re now a functional blog powered by Wordpress, meaning you can now leave comments below each post. On our end it means that posting is a lot easier and will now happen a lot more often. Expect a lot more posts featuring great shops with Handmade and Vintage items across the net, art and craft tips, information about the Sneak Attacks, new giveaways, etc.
(I’ll be inputting all the old posts over the next day or two. )
