Why buy handmade candles & soap from local artisans
- Candles & Soap can be matched to condos, patios, and warm-weather social spaces instead of generic marketplace inventory.
- You can ask direct questions about small-batch pouring, curing, scent blending, labeling, and packaging before ordering.
- Local search terms are easy for resellers to abuse; verification helps screen for real process evidence.
- Custom sizing, colors, and materials are easier to discuss when the seller documents their handmade workflow.
How verification works
Every seller on our marketplace goes through a human-reviewed verification process before their listings go live. Here's how we keep it real:
- 1
Seller identity check
We verify each seller is a real person operating a legitimate handmade business, not a reseller or dropshipper.
- 2
Workshop documentation
Sellers provide evidence of their workspace and process: photos, videos, or other documentation showing how items are made by hand.
- 3
Anti-slop image screening
Every listing image is checked against known dropship and stock-photo databases. Suspicious listings are held for human review before publication.
