Fredericksburg Trade Days this Weekend!

Lone Star Market

I've been trying to set up at more Markets for the
Holiday season... the heart is willing as they say, but
unfortunately the weather often is not!

I was signed up for a show right after Thanksgiving and it just poured! I didn't even set up it was just too
nasty! I figured it couldn't be worth it to go through the effort and possibly have work ruined,

Treaty Oaks Distillery

The deal with these markets is that the vendors get charged, and if it rains or for some reason the show is a flop the vendors still get charged.

 I can understand that the organizers need to be paid if they have put money out to say, rent a venue or for any promotional cost. Unfortunately that isn't normally the case, most of these markets set up in parking lots or are put on by the municipality which is the same entity that owns the location, so there is not a cost involved...

It hasn't taken me long to realize the organizers are making money on the vendors, and with out the vendors there isn't much of a market..

So I decided to rent a good indoor venue and put on my own market!

This solves two issues.
1. I will have markets to sell at that are indoor and not subject to being cancelled and
2. I can make a little extra money organizing the events which I think I will be good at doing.
I convinced a woman I met doing shows to go in with me since two heads are better than one..and she's a cool level minded person..

Our first event will be held April 2, 2016 and the Dripping Springs Ranch Park Event Room..

You will be subjected to all sorts of information leading up to the event.... Wish me well!


This weekend I will be selling at Fredericksburg Trade Days! I've never been but I've heard it is a blast.
