We are a supportive community of handmade artisans that share, network, and inspire each other. As we work together we can learn from each other and promote handmade over mass produced!

Please make this group more than a post and run...ask questions, promote each other and help the world see how special handmade by the artist is. 

Selling on Handmade Artists: It's $5 per month or $50/year. It means, compared to Etsy, you need to list 25 items per month minimum for it to equal to listing at Etsy. So for the year, got to list minimum of 300 items. With Etsy, you pay only .20c per listing.

Perhaps when I can list over 25 items per month, then to consider Handmade Artists:

nterested in becoming a seller on the Handmade Artists' Shop? There are a few things you need to know. First, you need to be a handmade artist; so look at yourself; are you a handmade artist passionately creating from the heart? If so, you're in the right place. Next, you need to be a paid subscriber of the Handmade Artists' Shop. This site was born out of the need for our members to have a venue that cares about the artist and sells handmade and handmade only.

So what do I get from my paid subscription?

Your paid subscription gives you the ability to setup a personal shop page and sell as many of your handmade products as you want. There are no listing fees and no commission fees.

What features do get with your new shop?

Here's the short list:

• Customers can buy from multiple vendors through one checkout point.
• Payment(s) for your product(s) are through Paypal only.
• All items are automatically added to Google Product Search and The Find!!
• Set up your shop policies, shipping and profile pages to reflect your style.

• Post multiple images per listing.
• Separate your items into different shop sections. You create and name your own shop sections to sort your items. This way your store front is just how you want it!  This also makes it easy for your customers to find what they are looking for.
• Internal PM system that you can use to communicate with buyers as well as other sellers.
• You can set up shipping profiles to make it easy to give shipping discounts for multiple items as well as set prices for shipping around the globe.
