Tech Needs
Ooo Aaa the tech side of running a business
This cardholder dock makes the checkout process a lot smoother. Having that stabilization for collecting payments instead of fumbling around collecting cards really calms my nerves on market days.💳
Card Dock for Square Reader
A bigger ticket item, but it’s necessary🫠 I was dreading having to purchase a POS system, but this is the best option in my opinion because it directly connects to your Etsy account, and it’ll also show your in-person sales as an order count on Etsy...
Square Reader for Contactless & Chip 2nd Gen
Perfect string lights for outdoor markets! A lot of the markets I attend don't offer electricity, so these were perfect because they are USB plug into a power bank.
Waterproof String Lights - Outdoor Shatterproof
Fairy lights are the cutest and easiest way to make your table welcoming and fun. I string things around each table and have the remote with different modes so nice✨✨

Display Needs
A good market needs a good display
Displaying art prints has been such a struggle until I tried this gridwall hack. Instead of building cubes, you build a gridwall to clothespin your work to. This is such a great way to avoid stands that don't help in windy conditions.
Wire Cube Storage
Another accessory to add to the grid wall. This is great for displaying products at different heights and utilizing your space.

Rain & wind are inevitable! It is best to be prepared for any weather conditions, even the sun. Trust me I've been through the trials and errors with mother nature.
Sidewalls 3 Pack for 10x10 Canopy Frame White
Trying something new with my market setup by adding a pop of color to my tent. Sometimes I feel like my tent isn't my vibe but adding little cutesy decor here and there makes all the difference.
