Annie travels the world, from Mexico to Egypt to Portugal, and shares what catches her eye, bringing new and unusual artisan finds and industry insights to keep your brand or shop ahead of the competition. This membership connects buyers and artisans, and Annie's goal is ultimately to help support the artisan sector.
