For crafters, artists and makers
Websites for crafters, artists and makers
A product grid for candles, soap, cosmetics, art and home crafts, with an Order on WhatsApp button under every item.
What buyers want from a maker's shop
People buying handmade things want to see the item properly, know the price and feel that a real person made it. Photos on Instagram or Facebook slide out of view within days. A shop page keeps every product in one place where it can be found, shared and bookmarked.
Buyers also wonder about the dull but important things. How do I pay, what will delivery cost, how long will it take, can I collect? When a How to order page spells these out, fewer people drop out halfway through a chat and more of them finish the order.
What the crafts example includes
- A shop page with a product grid sorted into categories, each with a photo, a short description and a price
- An Order on WhatsApp button on every product, with the product name filled in
- A How to order page covering payment, delivery, collection and returns
- An About page for the maker and what the work stands for

Questions from makers
How many products can I show?
As many as suit your range. Tell us roughly how many items you make and we will quote for that.
Do customers pay on the site?
There is no cart or checkout. Customers tap Order on WhatsApp, you confirm stock and delivery, and they pay in the way you prefer, such as EFT or a payment link.
Do I need a professional photographer?
No. Clear daylight photos taken on a phone are enough to start. Send them over and we place them on your site.
Based in Bryanston, Johannesburg. We build catalogue websites for makers in Sandton, Fourways, Randburg, Midrand and across Gauteng, and anywhere in South Africa over WhatsApp.
