The film
The idea, in ninety seconds.
Small drops, not shops.
Make a batch.
Twenty mugs. A dozen scarves. Make as much or as little as you want to.
Share it.
Set the date. Share your drop. Let your people know it’s coming.
Take a breather.
Sell it. Ship it. That batch is done. Start the next one when you’re ready.
One batch. Three moments.

Why we’re building Crafd
Handmade should mean made by hand.
There’s nothing wrong with things made in factories. But they shouldn’t be sold as handmade.
Somewhere along the way, the big handmade marketplaces started filling up with mass-produced products, resellers, and dropshippers. Finding something actually made by the person selling it shouldn’t be so difficult.
I think there’s room for something different. A place built for people who love making things, but don’t necessarily want to spend all their time running an online store.
That’s what we’re trying to build with Crafd.
Made by the person selling it.
If you didn’t make it, you can’t sell it here. Pretty simple.
Small batches are a good thing.
Make 10 of something. Sell them. Make more when you’re ready. There’s no need to keep a store stocked year-round.
A better deal for makers.
No listing fees. No paying for ads just to get noticed. We want makers to keep more of what they earn.
Let people follow you.
When someone likes your work, they can follow you and hear about what you’re making next. No algorithm to worry about.
It’s okay to take a break.
You shouldn’t have to turn something you love into a full-time job just to sell a few things.
If that sounds like you, come make with us.
