In the recent decade there has been a soaring increase in the world of online shopping. The internet provides a more convenient way of getting exactly what you need, when you have the time to buy it, and offers almost everything you could possibly imagine. The challenge now is finding unique items with a personal touch, rather than mass produced goods tailored to the generic public. This has seen a trend toward do-it-yourself projects and handmade goods which, when given as a gift, always have more meaning because of the thought and dedication put into them.
