Online Marketplace Seeks Out British Design Talent

May 22, 2012 - PRLog -- The unique selling point of the site is that over 90% of its products are handmade here in the UK and founder, Jo Hartigan, is currently looking for new design talent wanting an online resource on which to sell their wares.

Jo Hartigan, Founder of ArtyHarty.com says: "Having produced pieces of personalised art for friends and family and having received great feedback, I decided to make it available to others. But, I wanted to make the site not just a gift store but an online marketplace where other artists and designers could showcase and sell their goods too.”

The business is currently looking for quality, UK based artists and designers to partner with and showcase their goods online.
 
The site specialises in personalised and unique gifts with over 90% of its products made here in Britain. “Today it is more important than ever,” says Jo “that we spend our money here in the UK and support our local economies. We have some great artists, designers and crafters in this country who produce high quality work at prices that won’t break the bank. Of course buying from within the UK helps the environment too as transportation is direct from supplier to buyer making a single trip only."

Anyone based in the UK with a talent for creating handmade gifts with a difference and who wants to sell their products online should email info@artyharty.com with information including some sample pictures.  More information can be found online at http://www.artyharty.com.
