I can’t wait to see where this goes. I love the potential of getting dollars into the hands of artisans over big box stores. I have recently struggled with wanting to buy homewares from a small businesses, but Etsy was oversaturated and overwhelming and I didn’t know where to start my search. So excited for this.
@tatiana_dannenbaum Thanks Tatiana, we hope you find some amazing home goods! Let us know if there's anything else you'd like to see and we'll go treasure hunting 💎 😊

Love the concept of this platform and it definitely gives off the vibes of a more curated Etsy. In today's day and age of online shopping it's so hard to know exactly what you're buying and how quality the product really is. Their integration of video really gives you insight on the process and hard work that goes into making these products. Definitely think they are moving the needle for the future of online shopping. Excited to see how the product evolves!
@will_loewenthal Thank you Will! If a picture is worth a thousand words, videos are worth a million – especially when it comes to making emotion-based purchases. Glad you're enjoying it! 😊
@will_loewenthal Thanks Will, our team is extremely excited to continue to use video to highlight the human element of these products, processes, and stories. We appreciate your support!

As a maker, it’s increasingly valuable to show the hard work behind beautiful products and I’m excited for this platform’s ability to bring that to light.

Super cool use of short-form video to humanize the production process and to drive engagement. I love how this approach helps creators put their Individuality on display in an accessible yet intimate way. Best of luck 🚀
@j_pascasio Thanks Jordan! Humanizing the production process is so important to help differentiate artisanal work from mass-produced goods. Our goal is to make it feel like you're stepping into the creator's environment, much like a studio visit with an artist 🤓

Wow this is the sort of experience I've always wanted online but have never found. It feels like I'm on Valencia street in SF for the first time walking from small interesting store into the next, eagerly awaiting what I'll find next. So many cool little touches. Excited to see where this goes!
@connorzwick Thanks so much Connor! That's exactly the type of vibe we're going for. There are so many Valencia Streets around the world (and many artisans don't have physical storefronts) – yet so little time... we plan to bring them straight to you instead 😄
