Ep 63: First-Time Vendor: My Experience at a Holiday Market

Summary of the episode:

Hey friends, welcome back to noseyAF! In this solo episode, Stephanie Graham reflects on the whirlwind of 2024 as December kicks off. Stephanie shares her experience as a first-time vendor at the 476 2nd Annual Holiday Market, hosted by her film union, IATSE. From setting up a cute booth with her cousin Brandy of Poor Little Rich Girl to selling her tiny, inspired pins, Stephanie dives into what it was like to step into the world of holiday markets.

She recounts highlights like Santa Claus, a Tony Bennett impersonator, and DJ-spun tunes, as well as valuable lessons learned from seasoned market vendors like Nyla from Homegirls Hummus. Stephanie also touches on the joy of connecting with buyers face-to-face and shares tips for anyone looking to try their hand at vending.

Looking ahead, Stephanie teases an exciting lineup for the remainder of the year, including a conversation with Eric Von Haynes , a talented printmaker, and part of The Love Fridge project. She hints at taking a well-deserved break before returning fresh in 2025.

Tune in for a heartfelt recap, lessons learned, and a sneak peek at what’s to come. Stay curious, and take care!
