There is a new handmade movement sweeping the nation! More people than ever before buy handmade online thanks to popular online marketplaces like Etsy.com and virtual craft shows like HandmadeCraftShow.com.
Many folks know about online marketplaces and they enjoy buying handmade crafts from the gifted handmade artists who have setup shops there. But virtual craft shows are now becoming the fun way to find and buy handmade online.
Have you heard of a virtual craft show before? Let me introduce you to one of the most popular virtual craft shows online that showcase unique handmade from artisans from all over the web, yes including from the online marketplaces. HandmadeCraftShow.com has become one of the leading virtual craft shows after launching in 2009. On HandmadeCraftShow.com you can find new and popular handmade by browsing virtual craft show booths, meet interesting artists and learn what inspires them to create by reading artists interviews, and you can even find the latest and greatest handmade by visiting the craft blog or signing up for the newsletter.
Now, let me explain a few differences between online marketplaces and virtual craft shows. Well the really big difference is that virtual craft shows compliment marketplaces, by showcasing lesser known but equally talented handmade artists who get overlooked on the larger sites like Etsy.com and Artfire.com.
Now what do I mean by “showcasing”? To help you understand, think of a traditional craft show. At a traditional craft show, handmade artists rent a booth/table and display their unique handmade creations for you to see. When you find handmade items you like, you make your purchase directly from the handmade artists. Well that is what happens at a virtual craft show. You browse virtual craft show booths that display a sampling of handmade artists’ crafts and information about them as well as their specialty handmade. When you find handmade that you like, click the link that takes you directly to their online shop or website, select the handmade you love and then checkout.
Virtual craft shows like HandmadeCraftShow.com do not have shopping carts. Their main purpose is to introduce handmade artists and then lead visitors to artists’ shops that located on popular online marketplaces like Etsy.com and Artfire.com. In a nutshell, you can say virtual craft shows are advertising venues that make it easy to market handmade crafts online and fun for those who love to buy handmade.
