Stockholm Etsy Christmas market 2012

So the Christmas market was this last tuesday as you may know from earlier posts.
 I had so much fun organizing the event with the 2 other girls to begin with and the outcome was everything we had hoped for. It was great meeting other Etsy sellers, and it went really good sale wise as well. 
Here's some pics of the event:


My table set up! 
The standing rack for the clothing accessories in the back is actually an old wooden frame for holding up an oil canvas. I put some legs to hold it up and painted it with coral red paint and voila!


An old hat box for my screen printed shirts and bags.


Jewelry display was made of an old Ikea frame and was painted with the same coral red. 
I made lots of new brooches and necklaces that will be up in shop soon. And new card sets as well! 
They sold quite well during the day. 


The place itself was great for us but I do think next time we're probably going to need a bigger place as there were more sellers interested that wouldn't fit within that space.



Raquel from Deco Tape Paradise was my lovely table neighbor. She sells as the name reveals tape in all sorts, very kawaii and I bought some of course. Can't get enough of washi tape! 


We got a visit from Mark of Etsy Inc New York who brought us some cool stuff from the headquarters.


My favorite Etsy sticker!


And here I am in action with ghost hands and a smirky face at my table.


New necklaces to be added to the shops, I hope you like them as much as I enjoyed making them. 

Wishing you a great Christmas holiday!

Hi there!

We will probably arrange a new design market during spring/summer but we haven't set a date yet. I'll post something here before of course!

Have a great weekend! :)
