It's A Small World - Fair Trade Handicrafts & Gifts

Empower 3rd world artisans to become self-employed by bringing their fair trade handicrafts, accessor

The vision of It's A Small World unfolded over 10 years ago, in January 2011. Our goal is to work with independent artisans around the globe by purchasing handicrafts, jewellery, and other items at fair trade prices, and in turn, bring these beautiful high quality one-of-a-kind handmade items to you. With your support, we can offer hope and a better future for the poor of the world.

This weekend, Saturday, December 6 and Sunday December 7, 2025 will be our FINAL craft show of the season. If you haven't had a chance yet to pick up a unique hand-crafted Fair Trade item, either for yourself or as a holiday gift, this is your last chance to see us in person at the Fair December Winter Marketplace, hosted by Cawthra Park Secondary School in Mississauga.

But, even if you can't make it this weekend, you can still purchase online at www.ItsASmallWorld.global, with low-cost shipping all across Canada ($8), to the USA ($6), and to the United Kingdom (£5). Order soon for shipments to arrive before Christmas!
