Prepare your handmade and independent makers store

  1. Choose a manageable collection

    Start with pieces you can describe, photograph, and fulfill confidently. Explain what is included and which variations are available.

  2. Show the work clearly

    Use close-up images and useful material details. Distinguish stocked products from items that require preparation time.

  3. Protect your making time

    Set a regular order review and packing routine. Keep customer questions and order context together so administration stays manageable.

Follow the store setup guide

Before you publish

Use your own product photos, verify stock and pricing, explain delivery and returns, and complete a test order. Check the full journey on a phone.
