Handy craft business for some people might has same value as other handy craft product. Indeed, this handy craft product is still ordinary as other.
This handy craft product sells many things and puts them together in a good looking packaging, but since that way of selling it is too monotonic. It needs some changing to make this kind of product more stunning.
Then the product start to be combined with some aspect in life, such as religion, love fashion, food, tool and others. Unfortunately, none of them fit each other, they still look too monotonic.

Here is the beginning of memorable local (Handy craft) gift. I would like to use my own experience of being a hopeless student in making money in order to survive in Surabaya, the second biggest city.
After trying several kinds of businesses, i thought that there must be another better way not only to make money, but also it gives the big impact toward small local industry.
In my break time, as a student who is busy with so many assignments, I tried to search how I can find the way to support the small local industry and got money in the same time. I invited my friends to discuss about this issue in the class.
Then, one day I had a little discussion with my friends. They are fatma,tutus, and prafina. Surprisingly, prafina had a good idea about my dream business. She told us that there is special product in Tuban which is promising to sell and promote. She asked us to try and find our hometown special product or traditional product.
Now, my friends and I have find the proper and creative way to support the local industry but still get money from it we create “memorable local (handy craft) gift” as our new business. The products are consists of traditional things originally from Tuban, Lamongan, and Madura which represent our hometown. We also serve a special treatment that makes our customers have different experience after receiving our products, and that special treatment is the card called “quote of the day”.

'Memorable Local Gift' Fits A Way Better
By Prafina Yunisda
I am a local traveler and get obsessed by the beauty of my own country Indonesia. Enjoying the nature and interacting with the local people are so awesome. The most interesting part is gaining some knowledge and moral value from some historical buildings that I have visited, people that I have met, traditional food and drink that I have tasted, local handcraft that I bought, and many more. From those great things the one of them that I can physically bring home as a memory is the local handcraft. I also can give it to lovely people around and it will be better to tell them what the story is behind for instance, the historical point of view and some moral values given.
Unfortunately, the reality is different that mostly and usually people tend to buy some food and drink that are actually good and enjoyable but last shorter, or maybe some handcraft that is not packaged perfectly and without any story behind it. In fact, I did it so. Seeing the potential thing in empowering local industry and making family at home becomes happier and get touched by my special gifts, Memorable Local Gift' gives a solution in selling a handcraft parcel with some stories on each handcraft inside that I can also order online.
The parcel consists of multiple Batik cloth and local handcraft originally from East Java. They perfect each product with history and moral value. They design the parcel based on whom you will give to. For instance, a mother will get a special gift designed with a piece of pepper telling the history and moral values that is connected to her, yet completed by some personal words from the giver to say to. They also provide it to father, brother, sister, grandma, grandpa, and etc.
