When he said "I think this is what world peace looks like," I just started to cry. The art and the people are so beautiful. Many thanks for sharing this wonderful video.

That “this is what world peace looks like” comment totally blew me away as well. These people are just as beautiful as the items they’re creating, and each one has their personal story. Crafters are the most authentic and compassionate souls that there are.
