For the entire month of August we are celebrating functional art and what it means to be a creator, purchaser, and designer of handcrafted, functional art pieces. Functional Art is any handcrafted piece that can be used in some way, shape, or form. In honor of being creators of functional art pieces, we’ve compiled a list of 3 popular functional art pieces today!
