CPSIA is legislation that is passed and will go into effect in February - some is in effect now, that will STOP all handcraft of any item made that "could be used" by any child under the age of 12 unless those items are tested - some individually at approximately $500 each test per item. Also any manufactured item regardless of the size of the business. Can you afford to test all of your materials and your items - and each item could need testing.
There are many threads on this with extensive explanations. Search this forum!

Moving this back up. This has been the hot forum topic for days. Now that there is a place to respond to it officially no one seems to care anymore.
