If you are buying handmade work it can be hard to know what is a fair price to pay for a piece.

Most customers want to know they are not being overcharged for the work they are buying but also that the maker can get a fair wage for the work that they do.

If the maker you are buying from displays the ‘Handmade & Well Paid’ badge you can be assured that they have learnt how to price their work for a sustainable business and have signed the pledge to value their work and their customers with an accurate pricing model that is a win, win for both.

You can find out a little more about the campaign below…

Handmade & Well Paid is a campaign to help ensure makers are well paid for the work they do whilst helping customers to make good decisions about which makers to buy from.

Makers need a sustainable income in order to keep running their businesses and making their crafts.

Customers value and admire the work of handmade artists and want to support them fairly to ensure they are making a good living wage for themselves.

To support both sides - maker and customer, help us spread the word and get makers well paid and customers feeling confident about buying wonderful handmade work.
