A few crafters in the Crafty Supermarket family talk about their experiences at the National Stationery Show in New York City.
All makers struggle to price their work fairly, and often undersell themselves. We realize this isn't always apparent to shoppers at craft shows, so here's an inside look at the process of pricing handmade work.
In getting ready for our big holiday show on Nov. 17, we're reaching out to local businesses and crafty supporters to support us. We love forming partnerships with organizations and businesses that believe in the power of making! Do you have a business, organization or enterprise that our 2,500+ savvy shoppers need to know about? We want to hear from you!
Fun fact: The very first Crafty Supermarket was also the debut of Grace’s first book! Now, three years later, an updated and expanded version of her craft business book, The Crafty Superstar Ultimate Craft Business Guide, is now in bookstores everywhere!
Crafty Superstar is just the ticket if you’re starting a craft business, thinking of selling on Etsy and/or trying to balance your craft life and the rest of your life! The business guide for part-time crafters, based on Grace’s experiences and the true stories of dozens of crafters she interviewed. The new edition includes oodles of worksheets, checklists and updated resources to help you get your craft business off the ground.
There will be some copies at Fabricate very soon (hopefully by the time our Etsy craft party happens on Aug. 23!), but if you just can’t wait: Order a signed copy of the Crafty Superstar Ultimate Craft Business Guide direct from Grace or get it on Amazon!
