2008 Craft Vendor Feed Back

We would not have a great Craft Show and Holiday Market without good quality vendors. Good quality "happy" vendors we might add ~ with this in mind feedback from our vendors is very important to us. On the last day of the show each vendor is provided a feedback form to complete with a few questions. This feedback is used to provide a better show next year. Here is what our 2008 Vendors had to say...>

Our Story ~ How We Started

How we got started....
Once upon a time 4 crafters got together to do a little "sale" to make some extra Christmas money. We each had a passion for crafting, creating or baking and thought "why not". We started small, setting up in Tracy's parents restaurant (J's Bar-B-Q) on a day they were closed, advertised a sale and to our delight had lots of interested folks that attended that first year. We decided to do it again the next year and so forth. Well, that was over 10 years ago and the same 4 crafters get together every year to plan the next sale. We've outgrown the small restaurant and moved it from location to location depending on what we could find large enough. Over the years we have developed a devoted following of shoppers who stuck with us as we set up shop around town, we'd send them an annual postcard announcing the date(s) of our show and where we were that year and they would find us. It was great.
By God's Blessings ~ we've found a big enough location and hope we are settled.
This will be our 14th craft show together and our 3rd at the Parish Activity Center at St. Mary's Catholic Church in Brenham, Texas. We are very excited to be setting up in a gym and plan to have it stocked full with a wide selection of handmade crafts from many crafters, artists and designers.
