General
Space allocation
70% of available shop-space is allocated to handcrafted goods and the remaining 30% is stocked with crafting materials, such as craft paint and decoupage kits. We currently have 159 crafters displaying their products, and this number is growing every month.
Cost
Crafters have two options, and are free to choose the one that suits them best:
- Rent rack space (from R65 to R110), and the shop takes 20% commission on sales
- No rack rental, the shop takes 30% commission on sales
Newsletter
The shop sends out a monthly newsletter, giving the crafters valuable feedback on the past month, and detailing plans for the upcoming month.
From the owner
Lorraine says: "Our ultimate aim is to reach people who are forced to make an income from handcrafted items and assist them."
