Where do I Find Black , BIPOC Artisans and Designers Who Actually Make their Products
Most small retailers make 60- 80% of their yearly sales between Black Friday and the day before Xmas! Many do so in local popup Events! With the present situation many are prevented from holding these! It has impacted their ability to sustain their families and support the wider communities!
I am making an online venue, a space where you can go or send someone, to shop for a gift for you knowing that the money your spend is actually going to the artisans! I am actually spending the time to ensure these creatives are comfortable and confident when selling online!
It is a partnership with others. Yes, it's a community effort I lead with the help of my creative partner but its the collaborative work and impact of those taking part that gives this steam!
CREATIVITY...
To be clear we are supporting those who make what they sell! Whether they design sew craft wall decorations, beaded accessories etc!
