Toymakers: Sign of Relief
photo by Ehsan Namavar
I’m not a political person in general. But there was one issue that was close to my heart. I’ve written several articles (Good News For Handmade Toys, Save Hand Made Toys, and No More Handmade Toys) about the CPSIA and their new rule to require expensive 3rd party testing on products intended for children. This ruling would force thousands of crafters and cottage industries out of business. But we can now breath a sigh of relief, at least for the time being. The CPSIA has issued a 1 year suspension of the rule so they can further explore concerns and look for possible options. Etsy.com has a great article about the 1 year suspension that you can read here. You can continue to keep up to date and see what you can do to help by visiting the Hand Made Toy Alliance.
