Flea Market Recap

Hi All!

Mr. Jennysold and I are getting settled back at home – whew! – after a long day of Punk Rock Flea Marketing and a celebratory/Mother’s (to-be!) Day dinner. It was tons of fun: sold some, learned some, made alot of people smile with the Kiddie Rock Posters. Stuff I figured out while there:

– Don’t forget to bring a table cloth of some sort (like I did).
– Vertical elements to your display will bring the eye in a little more.
– Folded scarves don’t look as, well…. scarf-like. Must get styrofoam head to demo one on. They sell those somewhere, right?
– The posters got alot of attention, and I need to branch out the concept (which I will be very soon! Already have ideas….)

All in all, a very positive first show ever experience. And, as promised, hand-sewn items will be up for sale in a day or two, so look out for those on Etsy!

JennySold Designs at the Punk Rock Flea Market

Awesome news: JennySold Designs is going to have a table at the Punk Rock Flea Market in Philly on Sunday, May 13! The $3 entry fee goes to support R5 Productions, a Philadelphia music promotion agency that puts on all-ages shows in the city’s smaller and medium-sized venues. Vendors will be selling anything from their used goods flea market style, homebaked treats, handmade crafts and jewelry, music, and artwork. There really are a variety of things to look at, some great one-of-a-kind products and an overall good time to be had.

From R5 Productions:
PUNK ROCK FLEA MARKET / PHILADELPHIA RECORD RIOT – This Sunday May 13th from 10am to 5pm. We have expanded to TWO buildings at 9th & Spring Garden Sts. “The Punk Rock Flea Market Dome” hosts 250+ tables of various vendors selling everything from old furniture to instruments to vintage clothes to laptops and bicycles. Across the street at The Starlight Ballroom we have over 50 record dealers selling their findings from all over the east coast. We also have six food trucks and loads of other small food companies, a full bar at The Starlight and a couple thousand people throughout the day. It’s by far the most positive and fun event of the year. A $3 admission donation gets you into both events / buildings all day long (re-entry is cool!) . The best part is – the proceeds from the flea market help us keep up with insurance, maintenance, and other weirdo costs from doing shows in some weird spaces.

I will be selling posters, totes, wristlets, scarves, pacifier clips, headbands, and whatever else I can sew up before then. The posters and butterfly totes are also currently for sale on my Etsy page; sewn items will be up on Etsy after the market.
