Traditional Crafts at the Risk of Dying

Just look around you, and you are sure to find so much beauty in your vicinity. We are surrounded by so many wonderful things with such a rich history, which we often take for granted. Many and often, the simple home interior decoration items are often crafted with great skill and come with a rich history that we know so little about. It could be those interior wall lights that you saw at an antique store or the heirloom fine china that your mother gave you, there is a lot more than what meets the eye. Traditional art and craft is such an integral part of our life and has been for a long time now. However, due to the rapid industrialization and replacement of handmade products with machine-made items, we are thoughtlessly replacing products that are made with great care and skill with products that are generic and made in thousands. These items are often generic-looking, commonplace, and are easily replaced with no emotional value attached to them.
