Crafter Spaces Available
Handmade Specialties' store location offers crafters the opportunity
to sell their crafts up to seven days a week, rather then just on the
weekends. We provide inexpensive, manageable spaces for you to
sell your crafts, starting at just $15.00 per month.
We also offer crafters free open house space along with free
classroom spaces for those who like to teach. We also have
referral programs for crafters to receive discounts on their rent.
So if it sounds like we can help you on your crafting adventure,
contact us for an application. We do not accept duplicates so all of
our crafts are juried. If you make a craft the we already sell, we will
put you on a waiting list.
We make your experience with us crafter friendly and we assure
you that we take your craft seriously. We treat your products as if
they are our own.
If you need any additional information or have any other questions,
please do not hesitate to contact us.
Crafter FAQ's
How long have you been open?
We have been open since 2005 and have been successfully
selling crafters' creations ever since.
What type of traffic do you get?
That depends on the time of year. January is the slowest time of the
year but the holidays and ice cream shop keep traffic constantly
flowing into the store. We are located on a Main Street business
district and we get sidewalk traffic from the local neighborhoods as
well.
Do you advertise?
Yes we do! Our biggest form of advertising is through craft shows.
We attend them frequently in order to make contacts with both
crafters and customers. We also do print advertising for the
holidays and are heavy users of social media.
Will I make any money selling at a store?
Your chances of selling your crafts at a store are greater than if they
were sitting in storage. Just as if you were at a craft show, you
would want to keep your inventory stocked for the seasons and
holidays. The more work we put into your space, the better the
results.
What are the space sizes?
Space sizes start at 12"deep X 32"wide X 19" tall.
I'm interested in starting a space with you, how do I start?
Call, stop in or email us and ask for an application. Once you turn
in the application we can make an appointment to address any
questions you have and pick out your space.
