as the crow flies is a curated collection of pieces created by makers living, or working, locally

the idea was triggered by the experience of visiting local gift shops, up and down the country [and often in places that you would not expect it to be the case], where generic merchandise was on sale. as the crow flies seeks to support local makers whilst giving visitors the opportunity to purchase one off items with a genuine sense of place
