Who are we?
‘Uniquely Crafted’ has been set up by a group of enthusiastic people with a keen interest in arts, crafts and generally all things hand made. Our vision is to create an environment where artists and crafters have access to an easy and inexpensive way to display and market their creations.
Who is it for?
Individuals
This is a new way for you to sell your goods online without all the fuss of having to maintain your own website – we do that for you! Our professionally designed website offers an inexpensive service and is designed to save you time while providing you with a larger market for your work.
Small arts and crafts businesses
This is another way of expanding your sales without having the headache of managing your own website.
Community groups
This represents a new way of fundraising – selling handmade goods and donating the proceeds to your favourite cause/charity or to help support local clubs.
Who can sell with us?
You need to be a resident in the United Kingdom and be able to provide a full UK postal address.
You must be prepared to deliver your goods promptly by mail, and to maintain a continual high standard of service to your online customers (as laid out in our Terms & Conditions).
What can I sell?
This is the easy part – you can sell anything handmade that is your own work or that of your craft club/charity group/fundraising group. This could be anything from knitting, painting, pottery, glasswork, jewellery, sewing, woodwork or whatever direction your creative spirit takes you!
Quality Guidelines
On a serious note, you should ensure the goods you produce are made from good quality materials and are of a high standard. All submissions are checked prior to going on our site and we reserve the right to refuse items that we do not deem as appropriate for our brand.
Uniquely Crafted positively encourages recycling and the re-using of materials.
Just remember, you are responsible for ensuring the health and safety of the goods that you produce for sale. So, for more in-depth information about how to comply with UK trading standards check out the Trading Standards website at www.tradingstandards.gov.uk.
