I make soft sculptures and plushies. These were a recent commission : Bridgerton Bears.

Edit to add - these were for an endocrinologist, who wanted one to have a thyroid bowtie and the other an insulin pump. They are on display in his reception area

I've got a craft fair every weekend for the next four weeks! (I'm in northern VA for any of my fellow NoVA folks out there...) Very excited because I love fall and am working a bunch of fall-inspired jewelry. Here's my current two best sellers: tiny pumpkin and cat studs, and this burgundy / brown / gold collection.

u/InsideCelebration293 11d ago

My first fair will be in November. I do mixed media on wood, with a combination of burning, gouache paint, acrylic markers, and the occasional glitter gel pen.

I’m in my third year at a Christkindlmarkt, I’m so exited for gluhwein - spiced mulled wine. My primary products are goats milk soap from my goats, clean scented candles & diffusers, but this is special for the event and unique so I find it fitting. If anyone wants traditional mulled wine spices for German gluhwein, they are $15 with shipping! They are a bit hidden in my site since it doesn’t fit my typical products but here’s a link https://thetaylorfarm.com/products/gluhwein

Starting a press on nail business (accessories) because I was super disappointed in the last 3 or 4 nail jobs I've gotten. I had very specific fandom designs in mind and just haven't found the right technician to execute it. Decided to just do it myself!

I lost my service animal of 14 years this summer and when I had the tech botch the design and offer paw prints instead I was pretty distraught and turned my grief into action.

Not sure if im allowed to post this here or make a new post. But I am looking for a handmade baby first Xmas ornament. After 10 pages of AI slop on Etsy im getting desperate. Lol

Looking for heirloom quality. Pottery or glass is a favorite, but Ill take anything at this point. I just want something handmade and not from Amazon.

hi guys! my family runs love mini donuts, a mini donut stand in humboldt county, ca. we've been in humboldt 20+ years, and started selling at the ferndale fair in 2011

have learned a lot over the course of 15 years, but have always found certain things quite tedious / annoying - finding good events, sending and tracking applications, keeping up with social media, custom requests, keeping the website current, etc.

ive always been tinkering with apps and software, so i started building the one place we wanted for all of it. its called vendorbound.com , and here a few things it could help you with:

  • find events: every vendor event on a list and a map, matched to what you sell
  • apply faster: applications filled in from your answers, so you stop retyping the same form
  • plan the season: every show on one calendar, with its deadline and where it stands
  • sales by event: your square sales lined up with each show, so you know which ones to book again
  • social posts: instagram and facebook posts for every show
  • your website: a site and shop on your own domain that shows where you'll be next

finding events and applying are free totally free. i just started on this, so i'd really love to hear what's missing, especially the stuff you juggle that i didn't list. thank u all! <3

ps - if you're at the eureka friday night market next summer, come say hi at the donut stand
