For The Makers

By working with companies like Kate Spade, Anthropologie and Marc Jacobs, the founders of For the Makers learned the ins and outs of finding the prettiest, highest-quality materials from every corner of the world. As the constant go-tos for friends looking for the perfect bead, ribbon or fabric, they realized they had to share their talent for sourcing top-tier materials. Braving tetanus on a regular basis, they’ll climb a mountain of chain or test a few dozen shades of green before settling on just the right shade. Crazy? Maybe, but the outcome is well-worth it.

For The Makers is runway inspired art and craft subscription box. Every month, they send instruction and materials needed to complete four DIY projects.
