I have to shut down my Zibbet shop because I use candy to make candy arrangements. REALLY????? Well, people that use diapers and store bought toys and accessories to create diaper cakes should not be able to sell them there either. What is the difference between a diaper cake and a candy bar cake?????? What we create with them is handmade.
That is like saying you can't use card stock to make greeting cards because the cardstock is not handmade. Isn't the whole idea of handmade to create something with something else? It's like saying using flowers to make floral arrangements is not actually a handmade item because the flowers aren't handmade!
Add something handmade to it so that it can be called handmade. Maybe they will accept that.
ReplyDeleteThe bows I attach are made by hand.
DeleteOh no! I'm so sorry to hear about this. But you are right, diaper cakes are the same thing, and I've seen those sold on Zibbet and elsewhere. Did you bring up this fact with Zibbet admin?
ReplyDeleteI did bring this up. Waiting to hear back.
DeleteThat sounds insane to me. You're right: not everything in a handmade item is actually 'handmade'. I don't hand make the semi precious gemstones that I make my jewellery from, or the paper that I print my photographs to, but these are still classed as handmade. Keep fighting it.
DeleteThough I must ask - What is a diaper cake?
