We only accept work done by Saskatchewan makers that reside in Saskatchewan.
Our Process:
Handmade House takes work on consignment at the current rate of 60% for the maker and 40% for Handmade House. We have an agreement which is signed if the work is accepted.
There are 12 working members who meet monthly and examine potential consignment craft. The group votes and decides what will be accepted.
.
Our criteria for review includes:
- Quality of the workmanship, attention to detail, finishing
- Whether it fits with the craft we already have in the store; we may already have a good volume of a certain type of craft. However, we are always looking for new, innovative and exciting craft to attract the interests of a variety of customers
- Whether or not we think the item will sell
- Work must be the original handmade product of the maker
- It must not include material that may be copyright
.
We do not accept the following types of work:
- Products with any type of scent/odour (eg. soaps, lotions etc)
- Consumables or edibles
- Items assembled from manufactured pieces or anything which is partially or fully made from a kit. Jewellery must be 95% handmade
- Type of items often seen at bazaars and flea markets, anything assembled from perishable materials (e.g. pinecone wreaths, crocheted dishcloths)
- Items that will not withstand display and handling
- Photographs or large scale paintings; we have very limited wall space. We consider smaller wall art on a case by case basis.
