Here are the steps to join!
Below are the steps you’ll need to take to have your business in the Made With Love Market as a Prisma learner!
Step 1: Read through this page with a parent
Read through all of the information with one of your parents so you both understand what’s required to participate.
Key dates include:
Vendor support session - March 20, 2026 1:30 - 2:30 PM Eastern
Vendor application due April 11, 2026
The market kicks off on April 17, 2026 with a Made With Love Launch Party!
Market will run close on June 22, 2026
Step 2: Get parent permission
You must have a parent’s permission to sell in the market.
Parents agree to:
help you choose the best prices for your items
help collect payments
make sure your website works properly
help with shipping items promptly after you receive payment
Step 3: Decide what you are selling
This is the fun part!
Choose things that you love to make!
Check the FAQs for items that aren’t allowed
Work with your parent to make sure you can sell your product at a profit (you don’t want to lose money!)
Think about the costs of materials and supplies, and the time you need to make each item
Step 4: Build your website!
You must submit a website link to participate.
You can use:
Wix
Google Sites
Squarespace
Etsy
Or another platform (as long as you build it!)
Keep it simple if you’d like — a Google Site works great!
Step 5: Complete your vendor application
(MOST IMPORTANT STEP!)
You must fill out the vendor application form to save your spot.
👉 Application Deadline: 📅 April 11, 2026
If we do not receive your application by April 11, 2026, you will not be able to participate this year.

Step 6: Decide how to collect payment
Work with your parent to decide how you will handle payments.
Options include:
A website platform that collects payment for you
Venmo
Another method your family prefers
Parents should be involved in this decision.
Step 7: Plan for shipping
You must:
Decide how much it costs to ship your product
Charge buyers for shipping

Frequently Asked Questions
What age learners can apply?
All learners in all grades are welcome to participate and have their own shop with their handmade or designed goods.
What are people selling in the market?
Get creative, have fun and make things you are excited about. From handmade knitted goods to hats, pottery, jewelry and more - the goal is to offer things for sale that you have made by hand or designed yourself.
What am I NOT allowed to sell?
You may not resell other people’s items.
You may not sell illegal or explicit items - they must be appropriate for a school sale.
You may not sell perishable or food items that will not reach your buyer in the time those goods would become perishable.
Do my items need to be spring themed?
No they do not! You may use your creativity to create products you think people would like to buy. Think about some of your favorite personal gifts, birthday gifts - and come up with great ideas.
Can my parents help me make my products?
Yes! Parent support is welcome, appreciated and expected.
We do ask that learners are involved in the process - but we also anticipate that many parents will get involved in this “micro spring business” and will play a vital and wonderful role in helping kids develop their exposure to entrepreneurial adventures as a family!
When does the market start ?
Starting on April, 17th - the Prisma Made With Love Market will be open for our shoppers to click through to your site! You need to be fully ready to accept orders by this date.
Can I sell a digital product?
This market is for physical items for sale.
If you design a digital design that is wonderful - and you will need to attach those designs to actual products for sale.
There are many platforms to help do this where you can ship directly to your buyers. Two examples are Printful and Printify.
Are there deadlines for shipping items?
If you are selling custom items for Mother’s Day (May 10th in the US) or Father’s Day (June 21st in the US), you should be able to ship those items in order for them to be received by those dates.
Otherwise, plan to ship items immediately after you receive payment.
How do I accept money for the items I sell?
Every learner and their parent will need to decide how they would like to accept payment.
Some learners may choose to use an existing platform like Squarespace, Shopify or Etsy to sell their goods.
We expect most learners to build a simple website with photos of their products along with a google form where families can submit their order.
We recommend families consider VENMO for charging other families and handling payments in a simple way like this if you don’t want to get complicated about things. VENMO is our preferred way for handling payment for those of you with simple sites.
How do we ship our items?
All items must be shipped via United States Postal Service First Class as a MINIMUM service level of shipping.
If you prefer to use UPS or FEDEX - that is also an option.
Shipping should be INCLUDED in the price of your product or detailed prior to checkout if you are doing it differently. Shipping should never be a separate charge that is a surprise to the buyer.
Please include tracking information to your buyer as possible.
Can I sell items with the Prisma logo?
Yes! Feel free to share your Prisma school spirit!
How will my shop be promoted?
You will have your first opportunity on April 17, 2026 to introduce yourself and your shop, share the story behind your creations, highlight what makes your business unique, and invite the community to explore and support your work.
Additionally, we will promote learner shops to the parent community.
Can we use our shops to donate to charity?
This is a lovely idea! Be sure to specify which charity and share more information about your chosen charity on your site.
Can we ship internationally?
The market will be organized into the USA and International shops. If you are a learner that lives outside of the USA - consider using a platform that creates digital goods you can print on and ship from within the USA if you want to be listed as a USA shipping eligible business.
Learners who have sites that reside outside of the USA will be listed in the “International” section of the site along with their country location.
Can we have more than one shop?
Yes! We love the entrepreurial spirit and variety of creative pursuits at Prisma! If you have a second shop selling in a different category, feel free to complete a separate vendor application form and we will include your shops on the website.
Can I sell my goods to people outside of Prisma?
Of course! This is your mini-business. The Prisma Made With Love Market is simply a place for us to aggregate all of the sites of our learners to make it easier for Prisma families to purchase from and support each of our learner’s businesses.
You are welcome and encouraged to sell outside of the Prisma Community and to share our Prisma Made With Love Market as well!
Will there be a zoom event?
Yes! We will host a Made With Love Market Launch Party on April 17, 2026.
Where can we find the link to all of the shops?
You can find all of the learner shops here - https://www.prismaparentcommunity.com/prismamarket
Here’s to our upcoming Prisma Made With Love Market and making wonderful things for our Prisma families! Best of luck as you craft and create and prepare for the market!
