Hello, Crafters!
It’s Vontina here, and what a wonderful way to close out November on Small Business Saturday. With this special day, I officially bid farewell to the market season and have packed away all my market tables until next year.
But as one season ends, another begins—so, let me ask you: What’s on your craft table?
For me, it’s all about Spring 2025. I’m already working on fresh ideas and new items for the upcoming farmer and artisan markets. One change I’m especially excited about? Next year, I’m saying goodbye to printed thank you cards and replacing them with something truly special—handcrafted thank-you-for-your-business cards.
From Note Cards to Handmade Gratitude
While packing for my recent Card Escape Retreat, I stumbled upon a bundle of plain note cards and had a creative lightbulb moment. Why pay for printed postcard-style thank-you cards when I can craft my own? As a maker, it felt only fitting to add a personal, handmade touch.

Now, every customer who purchases from my stand will receive one of these unique, handcrafted cards—a little piece of my gratitude wrapped in creativity. Be sure to check out what’s new for Spring 2025 when the market season begins!
Welcome, December: Tackling Backlogs One Project at a Time
As December begins, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed with projects, and trust me, I’ve been there. This year, I’m embracing a new plan: one project at a time. I’m finally tackling those backlogged ideas I’d hoped to feature on my market table but didn’t plan well enough to finish earlier.
With a little organization and focus, I’m excited to see how much I can accomplish before the year ends.

Until next time,Vontina, Happy Crafter
