We are looking forward to participating in the Designers Downtown Market in Raleigh, North Carolina for the first time this year!
This is an outdoor market on a quiet side street in the heart of Raleigh. Easy to get to, and abundant parking space, the market will be filled with handmade goodness.
From pastries to jewelry, there is something here for everyone. Please come see us!
Our goal for the market is to have 200+ pieces for sale. This includes necklaces, earrings, bracelets, rings, and hair accessories.
Several pieces of jewelry are going to be Exclusive Market pieces. These will not see the light of Etsy until after the market. We are hoping to have 50+ market exclusives made by September 25th.
We will also have a SALE section with some of our Summer inspired pieces.
There will also be an assortment of handmade cards for sale. I (Kate) began my obsession with Etsy.com by selling handmade greeting cards. It had been such a wonderful creative outlet for me.
Creating cards came from a very random place. I never liked scrapbooking, but I loved the paper and million other things you could use to make a scrapbook. So, I thought, "why not cards?". And so it was.
The whole idea is to create adorable and unique cards for great prices. Like, half the price of Hallmark cards. No offense to Hallmark-your witty phrases and beautiful cards aren't going anywhere...I just don't feel like spending $2.50-$3.99 on a card. And sometimes, I like the front but hate what is written on the inside.
Don't you hate that? It's awkward to write AROUND the pre-written phrase. Do you include it in your personal paragraph? Do you squeeze a few lines underneath it? Or are you the person that writes "-Sara" and that's it?
Thankfully, I have solved that problem. BLANK INSIDE. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy.
So, all that to say: come to the Designers Downtown Market on September 25th. We'll be there and be looking for you!
