Want to join our Artisan Shop Directory? Apply Today!
We have a large, targeted and dedicated customer base of shoppers who appreciate our reputation for curating top artists, makers, and designers. We understand how important markets are to the success of your amazing businesses and would love to help provide year-round online sales growth as well!
This is a community where we connect shoppers and artisans. Your image will link to your e-commerce site, and customers will shop and make purchases, directly with you.
Many participating artisans who have been tracking their online sales on the backend say that a strong percentage of online orders and site visits come from our Directory. Shoppers have also expressed appreciation for being able to connect with our artisans online.
Here's how it works:
All new applicants must go through a jurying process for acceptance. Only artists who meet the same Firefly Handmade criteria that we use for our markets will be considered. This criteria includes products that show high quality craftsmanship, creativity and uniqueness, with an emphasis on handmade, small-batch artisan goods and high quality vintage goods.
Online sales presence is required.
If accepted, your listing will appear on the Directory within 2 weeks of receipt of application and payment, through 2024.
Artisans will provide one required product image, and 1-2 more optional photos, along with a brief description of their work. We can only use high resolution images and may substitute photos of our choice for the best representation of goods. We also reserve the right to edit the description, as needed, for clarity of message.
Here's how you can participate in 2024:
It is free to apply. Complete and submit the Application and the $175 fee via paypal.com. If you aren’t accepted, we’ll refund your payment via paypal.com right away.
The fee includes:

Directory promotion in our newsletters and press releases.
