You spend days getting ready for a market. Packing the car like a game of Tetris. Double-checking your float. Making sure every bracelet, candle & work of art is exactly where it should be. Then the first customer of the day walks up. They pick something up. Look at it carefully. Turn it over in their hands. And then say… “I could probably make this myself.” Meanwhile, you’re standing there thinking about the hours of work, the materials, the practice and the late nights that went into learning how to make that one piece. ⭐Things only a vendor would understand. What’s something a customer has said to you at a market that made you smile … or made you want to laugh later? Let’s hear it.

These are a part of my business as Psychic Sophia (psychicsophia.ca) which I will begin selling at the spring markets I’ve registered for as a tarot card reader, and will add to my website once I’ve perfected them. Although I will be creating an “inventory” for the markets, they will be custom made-to-order from my site.
