Crafts direct, a marketplace for specialty, artisan and handmade items, is taking off.

Its founders say they are taking the business to the next level by selling direct to consumers.

The site’s creators, who have also been featured on CBS, have worked in the past with a number of brands including Abercrombie & Fitch, Calvin Klein and JCPenney.

Now the founders are hoping to make their first sale on a craft store.

The company has raised $7.5 million in Series A funding, and it expects to be open by January 2019.
