Why Handmade Matters
In a world of mass production, handmade crafts bring back what’s often lost: human touch, intentional design, and stories behind every piece.
Every handcrafted product carries subtle variations and imperfections that make it uniquely beautiful. At Made From The Heart Country Crafts, we believe choosing handmade is a choice to value relationships over transactions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you accept custom orders?
Yes. We work with local artisans who accept custom and personalized craft requests. Call (352) 581-2927 or visit the store to discuss details such as materials, dimensions, deadlines, and pricing.
Do you ship?
We offer local shipping and delivery options for select items. Shipping availability and costs depend on item size and materials. Call or visit our store for shipping details.
What is your return policy?
Because many items are handmade and sometimes custom, return policies vary by product and maker. For most non-custom items, we accept returns within 14 days in original condition with receipt. Custom or commissioned items are final sale unless a defect exists. Always ask at purchase.
Are your items made locally?
Yes — our inventory prioritizes locally made crafts from Florida-based artisans and regional makers. We also feature a limited selection from trusted makers outside the immediate area when their work aligns with our aesthetic.
How often do you restock?
Handmade inventory is cyclical and depends on makers’ production schedules. Popular items often return in new iterations. We recommend signing up for our in-store newsletter or calling to be notified about restocks and new arrivals.
Can I request a gift bundle?
Absolutely. We curate gift bundles for holidays, birthdays, and special occasions. Let us know your price range and preferences, and we’ll assemble a thoughtful package that includes wrapping and a personalized note.
