Get fired up: Artfire-d up!

The Best of Everything is committed, this year, to telling you not only what's Best, but what's UNIQUE about Christmas-- a new way of looking at Christmas, whether it's the songs or the characters or the movies.

Or the presents. Because Christmas means presents, and if you want presents that are unique, you should look at ArtFire.com.

Artfire.com is the online home of great handmade crafts-- but not just the usual "candles" and "woven baskets" stuff you might find at crafts fairs. There's baby clothes (like the "Explosive Bum" Onesie). There's housewares, and jewelry, and more. Great, one-of-a-kind gifts that don't come from the nearest -Mart or -Ko, and do come from the heart.

And Artfire.com lets you do more than just BUY stuff -- you can SELL stuff, too. As an Artfire seller, you'll have access to subdomains, custom shops, trade guilds, and more. They'll let you have 10 items up for sale at a time, totally free.

Buying and selling are great, you're saying, but what about saving the environment? How can getting someone a great handmade gift, or selling my own handmade gift, save the world? Artfire.com's got you covered: everytime someone joins up, they plant a tree -- and they're hoping to plant 1,000,000 trees in 2009, so get in the door now.

There are 5,000 people already selling stuff on Artfire.com. So if you're still shopping, you'll find something great to give to your friends, and family -- and if you're the creative type, sign up now and sell some stuff to others to give for gifts!
