Welcome to the Crafty Side of Datapike Design

Crafting Change, One Stitch at a Time

In short, Craftivism is crafts + activism, but that can take many shapes. For me, craftivism is less about mass action and more about the changes that come from repeated, small, intentional acts filled with love and compassion. It’s about creating spaces for open dialogue about uncomfortable social or political topics, with the goal of educating and informing and with the hope of making positive change. It’s about realizing the little things we can do to make things better in the world around us.

I create with purpose, intention, and compassion in every stitch. I create to connect people with items that speak to them, their experiences, and their values. I create to provide others with colorful and cozy bits of self-expression and individuality.

As a promoter of justice, equality, and sustainability, I’m proud to create ethically handmade products and slow-fashion goods. Whether it’s advocating for animal welfare, supporting LGBTQ+ rights, or helping people in my community, I use my creativity to make positive steps toward a more inclusive and compassionate future for all.
