The busy season is officially here! 🎄❤️

With craft fairs just around the corner and the holidays fast approaching, I’ve been spending lots of time in my craft room creating new products and fresh designs.

This year you’ll see new greeting cards, fun paper products, and some beautiful new shadow box designs. And of course, I’ll be bringing along plenty of Christmas wreaths to help make your home festive for the season!

I can’t wait to share everything I’ve been working on over the coming weeks. Thank you to everyone who continues to support The Crafty Sidekick by liking, sharing, commenting, and shopping local. It means more than you know!

Stay tuned for sneak peeks and upcoming craft fair announcements! ✨

To my crafty friends that aren’t in this shop already, reach out to Sonia if interested. Her and Jeff do a great job and put everything into this shop!

We’re growing, and with our renovations underway, we’ll soon be welcoming 35–40 NEW VENDORS to Scotia Handmade Treasures! 💙

If you’re a crafty person, maker, or artisan who has thought about getting your products into a retail space, NOW is the perfect time! The extremely busy Christmas shopping season is quickly approaching, and we’re hoping to have our renovations completed by the end of September so our new vendors can move in for October 1st.

We’re especially looking for 1 vendor in each of the following categories:

🔹Soap
🔹Freeze-Dried Candy
🔹Stained Glass
🔹Sea Glass Pendants
🔹Pottery
🔹Macramé
🔹Indoor/outdoor door hangers/rounds
🔹Catnip Toys

And other unique, interesting handmade products that we may not already carry!

Do you make something different or unique? We would LOVE to hear from you! Send us some pictures of what you create and tell us a little about your products.

Unfortunately at this time, we are NOT accepting:

🔹Clay earrings
🔹Sea glass frames
🔹Crocheted or knitted items
🔹Sublimated mugs, tumblers, coasters etc ...
🔹Candles/melts
🔹Greeting cards
🔹3D printed toys
🔹3D paper shadow boxes
🔹Bath & body products (other than soap)

Text Sonia at 902-275-7558 or send us a message right here on Facebook.

With 35–40 spaces opening up, this is one of our biggest vendor intakes yet — and with Christmas right around the corner, we don’t expect these spaces to last long!
