A Holiday Market

I was invited to join in as a vendor at the Beavercreek Golf Club on November 18, 2012, for their Annual Holiday Market.   I’m very excited, as I am on the lookout for a booth close to home, and I think this will give me a one-day taste of it.

I will have a 6 foot by 6 foot booth with a 6 foot table and linens provided by the show’s organizers.  In the coming months I expect I will be a little busier than I expected to be with getting Holiday items ready for  my Etsy, since I will now have to basically double up on what I’m making.

This is very exciting to me, and I will probably be emailing some of you who have booths and do shows for some advice.  Hope you don’t mind!

  2. Congratulations Kathy.hey couldnt have chosen anyone with more talent and creativity so I'm certain this wont be a one time thing for you and will probably go on to year round shows once they all see your items.

    I have only done 2 doll shows so I cant be of much help.

    good luck and I know many folks will have words of wisdom for you.

  6. Ooh, what fun! Keep us posted on ideas- I signed up for a market in October- I'm nervous and have no idea how to set up an attractive booth! Or what I need to take along- tools, unexpected somethings?

  8. That's great Kathy. Good Luck! I used to cut wood ornaments with a scroll saw that I used to have and then paint them and sell them at craft fairs. It was fun and it was also A LOT of work! You'll do great!

  16. How exciting Kathy! You will do well I'm sure of it. I have been so busy trying to get all the things done for a fall show in September which isn't that far away!! It's a lot of work but I'm enjoying it so far.
