Check your mailboxes! The New Work of Human Hands Catalog is Out!
Whether you like it or not, it’s time to put away the Spring/Summer Work of Human Hands catalog and pull out the Fall/Winter one. But it’s not just cold, wet weather we have to look forward to this fall – we have Work of Human Hands Sales! For those who traditionally hold Work of Human Hands consignment sales before Christmas, the arrival of the new Fall/Winter Work of Human Hands catalog means planning and preparation can begin for the most popular time of year for Sales!
Work of Human Hands Sales not only give you an excuse to get out of the house and send some time in a warm, festive atmosphere with beautiful handcrafts and delicious gourmet foods surrounding you. It gives you and your community a shopping alternative that reflects the values of our faith and an opportunity to put your dollars toward helping those in need. Through Work of Human Hands Sales you can transform your parish hall into a market where faith and justice meet!
If you haven’t received your Work of Human Hands catalog in the mail, or are a first-time sale organizer ready to get started, you can order your free catalog and a consignment sale information packet from our order page. The consignment planner in the information packet offers a step-by-step guide to make holding a sale easy.
SERRV , our partner on Work of Human Hands, has some special offers for sale hosts this year. Don’t miss out!
- Fair Trade Gift Set
Orders of at least $750, received at least 4 weeks before your first sale date will receive a free gift set of fair trade foods as our thanks to you. This will ship with your order, and you can share it with your committee, use it in a raffle, or whatever works for you! - Fall 2010 Artisan Tour
Sell more than $1000 worth of handcrafts and your group is eligible to be chosen for an artisan visit. You must also return no more than 25% of your order, and pay for your items within 10 days of your sale to qualify. We will contact you next spring if your order met these conditions, to request your proposal for hosting an artisan. The organization selected for the 2010 artisan visit will be contacted in late spring/early summer. - 25 for 25
If you order at least $750, pay on time and return less than 25% of your total order, we will send you a $25 gift certificate in May 2010 to use towards a future order.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please call our Customer Service team at 1.800.685.7572.
And remember, with each purchase made through Work of Human Hands, SERRV donates a portion of the sale to the CRS Fair Trade Fund. So whether you host a sale in your parish, or shop at home, your purchase gives in 3 ways – a beautiful gift for you, a fair trade for the artisan, and a donation to CRS to help us continue to build the Fair Trade marketplace.

I’ve had mine for several weeks – I really like the simple, uncluttered look of the catalog and the focus on the artisan groups that make the items. A big change from WHH catalogs from the mid-90s. I’ve place my first order already!
