Run by Experienced Crafters

Here at the Creative Craft Centre we care about our renters. We ourselves are crafters and sell our goods in our shop too. We wanted to share our experiences and expertise with you and help you to succeed in the world of selling your passion too. We always look after your goods like they are our own and display them to the best of our ability. We don't charge high rents, commission or have tie in periods because we've been there, done that and bought the t-shirt and know it can be hard to start a new craft business. We want to help you start making that dream a little bit easier and make a real go of it. We really do care about our renters!

OUR WEEKLY FRIDAY FEATURE VIDEOS

Each Friday we do a Friday feature video where we upload a video to all our social media sites showing a selection of the new products we have received from our new renter that week, what new products are in the craft shop and tell everyone what we have been up to. They get hundreds of views and are talked about so often. We have visitors come to the shop for the first time just because they have seen our videos and have wanted to see more of the shop and want to buy products they have seen in them. We've become quite famous!

Thanks for submitting!

Shelf rents are by paypal subscription. If a weeks rent is missed, paypal will automatically try to take the payment 5 days later.
Subscriptions are for a mimimum of one month.
All profits will be paid to the renter via paypal with details of items sold.
If rent remains unpaid the shop owner has the right to withhold the renters stock until the debt is paid.
If a customer wishes to pay by card the card fee is taken from the profit at 1.7%. for example a £10 item less 1.7% (17p) = £9.83 paid to renter.
All items must be handmade.
We cannot accept copyrighted items, eg. Disney, Guess How Much I Love You
We do not accept any offensive language, abusive, racist items etc.
If the renter no longer wants to continue renting their shelf but is unwilling to resolve outstanding debt the shop owner has the right to hold back goods to the value of the debt outstanding.
It is the renters responsibility to keep their contact details up to date with the Creative Craft Centre.
Although we take every care possible with your items it is advisable that you have your own public liability insurance as we are not liable for items damaged or stolen items by the public whilst in our shop.
All items must be fully compliant with regulations. Renters must have liability insurance where applicable.
The shop owner has the right to refuse items or remove them from the shelf.
You may use your shelf for advertising, taking orders, custom items etc. It is recommended that you include business cards, title, information about yourself and your products to better sell your items.
It is expected that the renter contributes to the selling of their product by sharing any videos, photos and informing on hour sites that you are selling at our shop.
We reserve the right to move stock around the shop to maximise the selling of your product.
The seller is responsible for the return postage cost at the end of the contract.
When the contract has ended if the return postage/outstanding rent is not paid or goods not collected after 12 weeks it is assumed the goods are abandoned and become the property of the shop owner. It is the renters responsibility to chase for their goods not the shop owners.
If you still require your stock back during this 12 weeks period storage costs of half the shelf rent will be charged plus return postage costs. After the 12 week period the stock will become the property of the Creative Craft Centre, this is finite.
Any videos are done at the shop owners discretion and are not guaranteed.
