2021

  • October 2021 Bertrand's Annual Craft Fair

This fair does not disappoint. This year marked my third year at the event and while my sales were not as good as my last they were much better than my first year. The shift can be normal, so I'm not discouraged at all. I will be back next year.





  • October 2021 Applefest in Orleans, NE

This larger than life event was a blast this year. I was hesitant to attend, but I did and it was so worth it.



  • September 2021 Pork Days in Stamford, NE

Since I was a small child, even before my involvement in craft fairs, this event was one I hated to miss. This year I took my four year old granddaughter for the first time. She loved it, I loved it and I LOVED having her with me.


  • September 2021 Wilcox, NE

This was my first year in Wilcox. They hold their annual small town celebration. It was small for sure, but I enjoyed it and plan to attend again next year.




  • August 2021 Dane G Hansen Arts and Craft Fair in Logan, KS

There's only one word for this amazing even and that is PHENOMINAL!







  • July2021 Buffalo County Fair Kearney, NE
This is a five day event and most days are like ghost towns. I think I may be a pop up vendor next year for the first night.






  • Prairie Barn Market in Colby, KS
I was beyond excited to do this event, however, I was sadly disappointed with the wind. It's always a gamble for outdoor events. Since this event is nearly three hours from home, it makes for a long day. I will have to think long and hard if I will attend next year.





  • May 2021 Norton Flea Market in Norton, KS
I wasn't expecting much from this event, but that's ok because making an appearance and getting my name out there is important. Plus, I bought some neat things from a fellow vendor.


  • April 2021 McCook Craft Fair in McCook, NE

Being in withdraw from no craft fairs in 2020, I was ready for this one. It was my first time going West. It was a good time and a good day. Unfortunately, I'm not normally in Nebraska during April.






  • April 2021 Kearney Craft Fair in Kearney, NE
This was the second time doing this event. I wish I could have two booth spaces, as I'm a little cramped, but this event is quite costly so I make it work with one space. It was a good event.




2019

  • June 2019 at the Beaver City Flea Market in Beaver City, Nebraska
This is a great time every year. The participation and turn out is spectacular.

  • June 2019 at Swedish Days in Holdrege, Nebraska

I must admit I was disappointed with this event. I think it came down to my location. The turn out seemed plentiful, but I didn't feel I got the traffic to my booth I would have liked. And I did not like being on the bricks.

  • June 2019 Flatwater Music Festival in Hastings, Nebraska

This was an amazing two day event. I love the old barn, the history, what the Prairie Loft Barn stands for, the music and most of all the interaction with the people. 



  • August 2019 Buffalo County Fair in Kearney, Nebraska
This was a five day event. The first night was a busy blast, however the following four days were a ghost town. Still, I have a nice time and the experience was well worth it.


  • August 2019 Kearney County Fair in Minden, Nebraska

This was a three day event. I was blessed to get a double booth for the price of one and I enjoyed meeting many new people.


  • August 2019 Dane G Hansen 46th Annual Arts and Craft Fair in Logan, Kansas
This is my second year here and it hasn't disappointed me. I love this event.

  • September 2019 Pork Days in Stamford, Nebraska
I always enjoy event in my father's home town and the place we attend church. This annual event has taken place long since before I was born. The people are all American hometown folk.

  • October 2019 Applefest in Orleans, Nebraska
This event was quite large once, but sadly fizzled out over the years. This year it was brought back to life bigger than ever. My booth space was one tiny table and didn't work out that way I'd liked, but there's always next year.


  • October 2019 Harvestfest in Hastings, Nebraska
I was back at the Prairie Loft Barn for this annual event this time displaying some new Christmas product.





  • October 2019 Annual Bertrand Craft Fair in Bertrand, Nebraska
This year I paid for two spots and was able to spread out. It was a fantastic turnout and my last fair before leaving Nebraska for the season.
