I’m very excited to introduce our first market business to take part in our new feature ~ ‘to market to market’.
Lets meet Casey from Creative Markets in Queensland.
Tell us about your market:
Creative Markets is a handmade market located at Springwood in Queensland, just 15 minutes south of Brisbane City. We trade from 9am to 1pm on the last Sunday of the month, with yummy food vendors, live entertainment, lots of activities for children like face painting, jumping castle, plaster painting and baby farm animals and 65+ handmade stalls.
What inspired you to start your market?
I was once a stall holder attending different markets around the Brisbane area & I also helped out a friend for a couple of months with her market and then decided after seeing both sides of a market to start my own market in my community. So then Creative Markets was created and I haven’t looked back.
What is the most satisfying part of what you do?
The most satisfying parts would be giving stay at home parents an opportunity to sell their crafts, and I love hearing all the wonderful comments by customers and stall holders regarding Creative Markets.
Where and when can we find your market?
You can find Creative Markets at Springwood Central State School Qld and we trade on the last Sunday of the month 9am to 1pm
How can businesses apply to be one of your stall holders?
You can apply to be a stall holder through our website – www.creativemarkets.com.au
Any personal or business highlights in the last year:
Creative Markets has only had 5 markets and every market has grown bigger and better from the last one and we are very excited about 2013 and are looking at expanding in the next 12 months.
