Phat Hemp Articles
Why Buy Handmade Jewelry from Phat Hemp There are plenty of hemp jewelry sellers out there, so you're probably wondering why in the world makes Phat Hemp different. Well, for a very vast majority of hemp sellers, they're actually just selling you mass produced, wholesale hemp jewelry that was tied with machines or in sweat shops in countries where they're making pennies a day. I'm not really down with supporting that kind of exploitation, so that's one thing that made me start making my own hemp jewelry.
When you buy from Phat Hemp jewelry, you are supporting a one woman business based in York, Pennsylvania (yup, I'm about 20 minutes from Amish country!). I spend a lot of time buying and testing hemp to give you the smoothest, more durable hemp. I also tend to invest most of the money I make right back into my business, helping to support other small businesses by buying handmade beads, and picking up what commercially made beads I need from other small businesses. It's a nice little circle that helps support the little guys in the US - and with the way the economy is, I'm sure more people doing that would be great.
