"Thank you Jacqueline for all the behind the scenes work that you do to prepare for these virtual markets. I recently attended the HOLIDAY Virtual Market as both a vendor and a shopper. It was a great shopping platform and allowed for lots of interaction"

"I love Craftadian markets, and have had a fantastic experience at them both as a customer and a vendor (Oliver Stockley). Jacqueline curates the markets really well, and there's always so many amazing handmade goods to discover!"

"Jacqueline organizes an awesome virtual market! I love the live giveaways that she hosts to boost engagement wth the vendors and that she always shouts out vendors in the main chat. It’s always a nicely curated market that’s not saturated with one type of shop. I will continue coming to this market as a shopper and an exhibitor"

"I was a first time vendor at the recent Craftadian Virtual market and was feeling a little anxious before the event, but Jacqueline had it all so well organized that it was just easy. Also had a lot of engagement from her pre-sale promos for the event. Loved being in the community as the vendors just supported each other throughout the day. Will do it again!"

"Thank you Jacqueline for the amazing online platform so the shows can continue. I have been a vendor at all the online events so far and look forward to the next. Great way to be able to interact live with shoppers even though it’s online. Enjoyed interacting with other vendors and shopping too!"

“The Christmas show last year was excellent. Tons of happy shoppers and some really amazing artisans.” Chris, Mud Pyes

“As a vendor with a few years of show experience, I can vouch that Craftadian shows are much better organized than most. No other shows come close to the level of cheerful support and assistance provided for set-up and takedown. At each show we attend we notice that Craftadian has devised new ways to make the shows even better for vendors and attendees. I highly recommend these shows to others.” Patricia, Little Kitchen Gourmet

“One of the best shows I’ve done. Well advertised, lots of guests and extremely organized.” Trish, Trish Beesley Photography

“Well organized show! They do an amazing job of advertising and make improvements year over year. I have been to the last 4 shows and have always done well with sales and make important contacts for future sales.” Lesley, 3 Teas

“Craftadian marks the start of Echoes market/festival/event season and if this year’s show is any indication of how the year will go, we will be very busy. We had line-ups to get in our booth and at our eco-handbags. We were so pleased that so many people came to see us. We used the power of our own social media to get the word out and we were really happy with all the efforts of Craftadian as well, including their tv appearances to promote the show. All in all we had a really good time at the show and were so happy for all the business it brought. We’ve signed up for next spring and will be doing the autumn show as well.” Laura & Vicky, Echoes in the Attic

“I have been a vendor at the Craftadian shows for 2 years ( approximately 5 shows). I am a jewelry designer that usually does not do craft shows but because I enjoy participating in Craftadian I created a special line of jewelry just for these shows. Why— because Craftadian is well organized, well publicized and gives designers a chance to meet their customers. Jacqueline’s support is unequaled. I always do well financially, but it is the environment created by Jacqueline that has kept me coming back. I also loved shopping for unique items that were handcrafted and Made in Canada by my fellow artisans.”  Gianna, SilverSparklings.com

We have been to all three of the Made By Hand Shows and love them. The shows are very professionally organised and managed, with a good assortment of vendors and extensive advertising prior to the event. Wallabygold Handmade Accessories

By far, the best organized show I have ever participated in. Jacqueline kept us well informed of everything along the way, and was always helpful. Jewelry Creations by Lyndsey

Wow!  Jacqueline really knows how to organize and promote a fantastic show!  It was great to see so
many talented vendors all under one roof.  Thanks for the opportunity to share my work and hopefully I’ll see you all again at the next show! Mae’s Gift Creations

Great Show. I was a Vendor and hopefully will be a Vendor again in the Spring. Good communication, great advertising and enthusiasm that went beyond great. Looking forward to this show growing and being one of the Must Attends for quality Artisans. Red Radish Studio

I was extremely impressed with the amount of advertising and the incredible organizational skills shown by the organizers. When you see a line up of over 500 people prior to the doors opening, you have proof that they did their job as far as getting the word out. Kudos to Made By Hand for a job well done.  The Little Truffle Maker

I participated in the Show, and I loved it. I’m applying to do so again *crosses fingers*. I am trying to go bigger with my display, but we’ll see if I can muster up the funds. It was a great turn out for a first show, and the advertising was done very well. With just as much advertising I think we can get an even better show and I am confident this is a show that will be HUGE in another few years and requiring a bigger space.” Sahetahs Jewelry

I can not say enough about how well it was organized.  From initial contact to pack up.  Jacqueline’s communication with the vendor, promotional efforts, and follow up on communication was nothing short of excellent.  The results of which were evident on the turn out at show was great.  I can not wait for this Springs show. If you are shopping of unique and wonderful finds, this show is for you!” Craig Ewing (Jewellery)

We participated in the last show and it was profitable and great fun! Athena’s Diaper Cakes

This was my first big show. I can say that everything was well organized, the communication of Jacqueline with all the vendors was exceptional, outstanding. The advertisement of the show and attendance of people was good and I can say that I would recommend this show to anyone who wants to promote their business. Delightful Crafts

Awesome show! The show manager Jacqueline Hunter was great, she shared daily info, kept all us vendors up to date with her succsess’s offered us great opportunities and threw a facebook party. Dollys’ Hobby House

Thank you and all of the other organizers of this event. It gave artisans, artists and designers the opportunity to showcase their talent, and there was a lot of talent on the show! Thank you for giving me this opportunity! I hope the show continues for many years and educate people about hand-made talent!  Arlumizu Designs

My Partner and I have been doing Artisan shows together for the past 5 years. This was our First indoor show. We did well Made by Hand and were very impress
with the size and huge amount of oranization that was put into it.
We are looking forward to working with Made by Hand again this spring and
for a long time into the future. Best of Luck! Catch the Light

My experience was very positive. Jacqueline did an amazing job organizing, managing and paying attention to all the vendor’s needs. I have been papercrafting for over 2 years and participating in the Made By Hand show has taken me to the next level, Thank You for all of your hard work and hope to be participating in the Spring Show. TaylorMade4You

You were amazing! You seemed on top of everything, were well organized and made the event fun. Anita

I enjoyed participating in the show and thought it was a great success. The advance coverage for the show, in the media and online, was excellent and most encouraging for the artisans and crafters involved. DeniMural

I thought it was a fantastic show. I will definitely be interested in participating in any other shows you will be hosting. Thank you so much for all your hard work! It definitely showed! Sew Sisters

I congratulate you and your team on your obvious hard work, resulting in your most excellent organization of the show.  Additionally your enthusiasm was very infectious!!  The loading/unloading couldn’t have been easier, I must admit I was a teensy bit concerned about that bit as it’s such a large building and I haven’t exhibited there before.  But it was smooth and easy.  Thank you so much for everything.

It was an awesome event. I’m glad to be one of the vendors and meet some amazing artisans and customers. Arianne
