GIFT GUIDE
Makers-on-Hudson (formerly Hudson Valley Etsy Team) was formed in 2008 as a community of imaginative, fun, and forward-thinking Etsy shop owners who delight in all things handmade. We take pride in the quality of our work and wish to spread the word of cool, crafty and one-of-a-kind gift ideas made close to home. We are artisans who embrace the artistic culture the Hudson Valley thrives in. We all live throughout this region of New York state with members from Scarsdale all the up to Albany. We have been brought together to share ideas, discover new business opportunities and camaraderie. Interested in joining? Please visit our Etsy page for application and qualification details.
