Oh man, this is a sweet deal you guys will want to be a part of!  We just got word from Artists and Fleas, one of the hippest indie shopping venues in Williamsburg Brooklyn that they want declare an Etsy day on November 17th!  Anyone who lives in the area knows that Artists and Fleas is a destination-must when perusing Williamsburg on a Saturday or Sunday to find the latest and freshest designs on the scene.   They have been generous enough to extend a special discount specifically to Etsy sellers that would like to participate and vend at the event.  We will be there and would love to see all of you guys in the area apply to be in the show and selling your Etsy goodies!
 
Etsy Day at Artists and Fleas will be November the 17th, Click here for directions, and be sure to apply while you still can! 
 
Here's the scoop straight from the organizer:
 
Etsy vendor discount: $60 for a 5x7 space, vendors are welcome to split tables (up to 2 per table) but both vendors must be in the application for approval (we want to make sure that the market is not over saturated by any one type of product, we want a fun mix)!  Also, when applying, vendors MUST include the link to their Etsy store for the discounted price! First time vendors at the market are always asked to prepay by paypal, but if they have sold with us before, they can pay the day of.  They can apply either through the site www.artistsandfleas.com, and if they have any questions, they can convo me on Etsy www.georgiavaridakis.etsy.com or at georgia@artistsandfleas.com.
 
Fun, yet useful facts:
  • Set up is at 11am sharp, doors open at 12.
  • We have a restroom up front and a fitting room in the back.
  • For vendors that only accept cash, there is an ATM directly across the street and on every corner of Bedford and N.6th for their customers.
  • We have a flier person on Bedford directing traffic to us from 12-7pm.
  • For vendors that need tables and chairs, we have a limited supply that they can rent for 10 dollars (they should reserve them if they need them)!
  • Vendors can break down after 7pm, but are more than welcome to stay as long as we are open for no additional cost.  We usually get a nice after-dinner crowd and will stay open depending on the foot traffic.
  • Vendors are welcome to leave their items in the market at their own risk if they are returning the next day.  (They should cover them well, we are not responsible for lost or damaged items.)
See you there!

That is so cool. I bought a wicked Brooklyn t-shirt from a vendor at Artists and Fleas. I remember there was also a girl who made the most amazing glass flowers.
