Hand Crafted or Hand Made which sounds better to describe our work? I think i know which way i would go but would be interested to here what you prefer.

I don't like either, but when I have to I go with crafted (or forged or whatever's appropriate). I do like to make the distinction between mass produced/machined etc, but I hate sounding too much like a kaftan wearing earth mother spinning yarn in a yurt.
I think the one I dislike the most is 'handmade with love', which is a real pass the bucket job for me (with apologies to anyone who uses it). I suppose it's OK on a sweater from granny, but not on high quality jewellery
(I'm obviously feeling a bit scratchy today, I blame the lack of chocolate)
lol poor George, i hate handmade with love with a passion to again sorry to anyone that uses it, but i do need to make a distinction between mass pro stuff and what i am hoping to make i need to get some new cards done and with the tins on my site i feel i need to put something.
i prefer hand crafted as hand made always makes me think of cakes and jams and dodgy clothes lol !!!!!

If I had to choose one it would be hand-crafted. Handmade and homemade mean similar things to me - and neither of them good.
I feel the same about handmade with love unless its from granny to grandchild and even then I think its a bit suspected.
Created by might be a better option - does that fit?

if it's "handmade with love" it better be a cake.
hand-crafted or hand-forged, the latter if it's blokey jewellery. brings forth visions of dwarves toiling with mithril hammers and the like
(i feel like a bloody dwarf sometimes when i look at my hammer rack.)
