The Challenge
As a new player in the arts and crafts industry, the client needed more than just a website. They required a complete digital storefront that could help them stand out against established competitors, reach new customers, and scale as the business expanded.
Our Approach
Our Solution
We created a full-featured website for the client, combining a static business presence with a dynamic WooCommerce store. Our solution allows bundled products with separate pricing from individual items, making promotions and kits simple to manage, while stock is tracked automatically for each component. Alongside this, we ensured a modern design, secure payments, and an SEO-ready structure to help the business grow.
