About us
It all began with a simple idea fueled by a deep passion. Amanda has always loved crafts, planning, and bringing people together, but she wasn’t sure how to turn that passion into something real. My first inspiration came from a place called Handmade Heaven at Markville Mall. When it closed, I felt the loss deeply, but it also stirred something in me: What if I created something like that for myself?
Our story
Then came more inspiration: Marissa’s Maker Market Collective, Megan’s Octopus Garden, and other incredible small shops and communities that celebrated handmade goods and the people behind them. With each visit, the dream grew stronger. And then, just the other day, something clicked. Amanda got to work right away — planning her first market events and searching for a space to rent. She was confident that the right location would come at the right time — and it did!
But Amanda quickly realized something important: she couldn’t do this alone. That’s where Sarah came in. She’s been by Amanda’s side through it all, and together, they’re building something truly special.
The Crafted Grace Market isn’t just a business — it’s a dream in motion. It’s a celebration of creativity, faith, and community — and they can’t wait to share it with you. 🌿
What we offer
At The Crafted Grace Market, you'll find vendor products, unique merch, and handcrafted items from Amanda's personal business, Queenbee Crafts. This includes beautifully knotted and beaded jewelry, charming wall hangings, and cozy crochet creations. We are looking for customers of all ages!
At the core of this business — now and always — is faith. We believe in building something more than just a market. While there may not be many (or any!) Christian-led market businesses out there, we’re here to change that — not by excluding anyone, but by leading with love, purpose, and grace. The Crafted Grace Market is rooted in the simple yet powerful command: “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.” and “Love your neighbour as yourself.” Mark 12:30-31. That’s our guiding principle. Our vendors and customers will come from all walks of life and all backgrounds — including different faiths, beliefs, and stories. Everyone is welcome here. What unites us is kindness, creativity, and a desire to build a supportive, uplifting community.
This isn’t just a business. It’s a movement of love in action — through handmade crafts, shared moments, and open hearts.
Our values
Crafted Grace Market was created with one goal in mind: to spread love, kindness, and faith through handmade creations and a welcoming community. We believe in supporting local artisans and providing a space where creativity and connection can flourish. We're based in Brampton, Ontario, and ship across Canada.
Meet Amanda
Hi! I’m Amanda — I’m 19 years old, currently taking a break from school, but I’ll be starting in January to pursue a career as a Child and Youth Care (CYC) worker. Helping others, especially young people, has always been close to my heart. I am located in the Peel Region.
I’m also a proud dog mom to Lily, my sweet girl who you might’ve seen on Instagram @beautiful.lilybean. She brings so much joy to my life! If you know me, you definitely know how much I adore Stitch (yes, from Lilo & Stitch — he’s my absolute favorite). More importantly, I’m a Christian, and my faith plays a huge role in everything I do. It’s the reason I started Crafted Grace Market. If you’re here reading this — thank you. Whether you support by buying, sharing, praying, or just being present, I appreciate you.
