I have applied to a couple of shows put on by the group Vintage Market Days . I found out a few weeks ago that I am waitlisted for the spring 2017 show in Amite, LA (3/10-3/12, 2017).
However I just got notification yesterday afternoon of acceptance
Read more…I am wondering if anyone here has done this show in one of their many venues. I picked up a postcard at a resale/vintage store today with their website. They are doing one in Louisiana and it's 3 days. I am wondering if it's worth it, one to pass
Read more…I am wondering if any of you have ever done a show with Steinhauer Productions? I believe they mostly operate in Louisiana. I have heard from one friend that she will not do any more of their shows. She makes and sells pepper jelly, sauces, and pi

I do have one specific question. I have a booth shot but it has my

As some of you might remember I applied to Red River Revel a couple of months ago. I have never applied before ... it's a huge show compared to what I've done before, further than we have gone for a show and longer than any show we've

I am wondering if any of you do sho
