Vendor Application

Botanically Bound is a curated marketplace for independent makers whose work lives at the intersection of craft and the natural world — botanical art, plant-derived goods, reclaimed materials, and objects that carry a story.

We're not looking for volume. We're looking for makers who care deeply about what they make and where it comes from.

We're currently inviting a small group of founding vendors to launch with us. As a founding vendor, you won't pay a platform commission for your first six months — just standard credit card processing fees. We want to earn your trust before we earn a percentage of your sales.

What we offer

• A curated platform built specifically for botanical makers
• A dedicated blog feature telling your story and your craft
• Direct order flow — customers buy on the site, you fulfill and ship
• Onboarding support — if tech isn't your thing, we'll help with photos, listings, and setup
• A community of makers who speak the same botanical language

What we're looking for

• Work that is genuinely rooted in the plant world — in materials, process, or inspiration
• Independent makers at any scale — from a full studio practice to a kitchen table operation
• A willingness to engage: share your story, show your process, be part of something growing

To apply, we'd love to know

1. Your name and the name of your maker practice (if you have one)
2. A link to your website, Etsy shop, or Instagram — or a few photos of your work
3. A sentence or two about what you make and how plants are part of it
4. How comfortable you are managing your own online listings (no wrong answer — we can help)

That's it. No lengthy forms. No fees to apply.

If it feels like a fit, we'll reach out to have a conversation.
