Thank you @ElisabethB for a great post! I love this idea!

 

I am both a maker and a retail seller, so I'm always looking for unique products to sell in my retail store (www.homestylecharlie.com)...and I also make items to sell directly to consumer as well as wholesale to other stores. My most popular items are glass and metal ornaments/charms. Our current lines are our Americana Quilt Design Collection, and our Saints & Icons. These were the top selling Holiday items in our own retail store last year! We can also work with you to design a one-of-a-kind ornament for your store, brand, or client!


For anyone interested check out my Etsy shop: www.homestylecharlie.etsy.com

If anyone has a retail store you can see my online catalog and place an order through my Faire shop.

https://homestylecharlie.faire.com

 

Have you heard of Faire before? It is a great online platform for qualified retailers to buy wholesale items to stock your shop. If you are new to Faire, when you click on my link above to order you'll be able to claim a credit toward my shop. AND, Faire also usually extends 60 day terms to orders so that can help your business' bottom line!

 

So excited to see everyone's work here!!! Thanks again for this awesome post!

Good Morning Guys, 

 

My name is Nina and run three small businesses:

Indica Dreams

Candelabra

Lowman Glass

 

Of these three, Candelabra is the newest, and the one I really wanted to connect with you all on. We specialize in hand-poured clean-burning gorgeous crystal candles. Weare still working on the website, but you can see some of the candles on my first website, Indica Dreams, as that business features a line of hemp-infused crystal affirmation candles. When we launched the line of candles for Indica Dreams, the response was so overwhelming, that we decided to expand on it, and hence Candelabra was born!

 

If any of you are looking for candles that will literally fly off the shelf, look no further. They have been a huge hit not only for us but for our retailers as well. Here are a few facts about our candles, and what makes them different:

 

  • Hand-poured with love: Our candles are not mass-produced but are carefully and lovingly created one by one.
  • Infused with natural botanicals: Natural botanicals add to the soothing properties and scent profile.
  • 100% natural soy wax: Soot-free, clean-burning, made with a renewable resource, and longer-lasting.
  • Gorgeous, reusable jars: Use the jars to hold jewelry or adorn your space after the candle is finished.
  • Double-wick 12 oz size: The perfect size for most spaces!
  • Affirmation: Our candles were made with a specific intention, meant to be taken to heart as you light your candle.
  • Healing crystals inside: Natural crystals are embedded into the wax, revealed as you burn your candle.
  • Tested 3x: Every batch is tested three times for potency, safety, and THC levels.
  • Great for: Meditation, Intentions, Manifesting, Gifts, Weddings, Special Events, or just for bringing a positive vibe into a space

 

In addition to the current collection we have a few new ones coming as well, and we can customize a candle anyway to your liking.

Check us out at the website link above or follow us at @indicadreamsllc @candelabracandlecompany

 

I'm happy to answer any questions you may have, & I hope can share these amazing candles with some of you.

 

Love & Light,

 

Nina L.

I am curious to know if there are creators who sell digital assets. I am a filmmaker here in Hawaii shooting movie quality ocean sports in the water. I haven't seen a creator who sells their digital assets/footage/imagery here. Have you heard of this kind of services another artist "maker" is offering? If so please let me know! I'd love to get more involved with selling on this platform. I just need the example/model. Thank you!

Hi there, I am very happy to pass this on to my friend who has a hard back children's book already created and she's been selling it for some time. But she's always looking for new outlets. Her name is Anna Teemer, in the event that she does reach out to you. Sounds like you have a wonderful business and it sounds very hopeful for a lot of authors who are hoping to sell their works.

I have wholesale bags of my powder ready to ship out to you!

That sounds amazing. I've got a couple of merchants in my shop that use chalk paint. And I dabble in creating various home decor chalkings which I sell in my shop. Plus I am going to be starting up some Chalking Classes to show others how easy stencil chalking can be (my daughter creates the stencils). So I am most definitely interested in your whole bags.

 

Will be sending you a message,

In addition to Service certified. I'm also a Nail certified in the industry's top brands. The base gels, for example, are infused with Vitamins A and E to nourish natural nail. The gels are high-pigmented, non-toxic, and are breathable. What this means to you, water does not get trapped therefore, is chip-free UPTO 4 weeks (at least me and I'm a nail tech).

John from Design Time Gifts

 

I started out doing 3d art on a computer and used it to illustrate a few stories for self published children's books. The love of creating designs put me on a part to making products. Currently I make buttons, can do sublimation and toner printing and have dabbled in wire wrapping and jewelry making. I have an online site and a brick and mortar store that provides me and my wife our income. 

 

I'm always trying to learn a new craft technique. Love meeting new customers and finding unique ways to create new items for the store.
