Our Beginnings Established in September 2004, the Indie Collective Shopping Directory originated as a holiday feature spotlighting independently-owned businesses. Our original collective contained approximately 30 shops, and has continued to grow over the past few years to include one of the largest listings of artists & artisans creating handcrafted goods, as well as craft suppliers, designer-centric blogs & many other facets of the creative arts community.
