2025 TWM Vendor Community Guidelines
This community is roughly 200 vendors strong - and growing! This means not every vendor will make it into every event for which they are available. We try to shake up each market line up so that we don’t see the same vendors each time, while still providing a quality artisan market for the patrons.
Categories matter! We do not like to place vendors in a position where they are competing for sales at the same market. That means vendors will often be turned away based solely on how many vendors applied from each category (ex. 10 vendors that apply to a market sell jewelry, only a few will be chosen, in the interest of their success at the market). It also means that we need to know what you are going to bring to each pop-up! So reach out and let us know if your business or product categories change.
Vendors must only be set up at a market if they were accepted FOR THAT MARKET - no sneaking in under the tent of another vendor who did get in! It is unfair to those who applied and were turned away.
While we do our best to give old favorites and new faces chances to set up with us, the vendor line ups are NEVER first-come, first-served. We are much more concerned about creating a quality market for our venues and customers, than accepting a certain number of vendors to each event.
What WILL help vendors get into markets?
Make it easy for us to market you! Have an Instagram that showcases your amazing work, so we can easily share it.
Have a solid Instagram following, and be ACTIVE there - we need EVERYONE to post about these markets on their feed AND in their stories, so we an get the turn out we all want - this makes a big difference!
Respecting the decisions of the organizers. If you don’t get into a market, IT’S OKAY! That is going to happen, and we rotate vendors in as much as possible. There are always more opportunities within and outside the community.
Being pleasant to work with, both in person and “virtually"! We LOVE vendors who respect their fellow market mates, bring a positive attitude to every event; who show us they WANT to be there.
CANCELLATION AND TIMELINESS POLICY:
“No call, no show” is defined as not showing up to a market without giving prior notice. If you have one “no call, no show” you will be placed on a 60 day suspension from TWM markets. The vendor will not be refunded their vendor fee.
We expect you to arrive in enough time to have your display set up by the start of the market. Every maker requires a different amount of time to set-up, so we don’t want to require a minimum arrival time. The maximum time will be 1.5 hours prior to the event start time, unless otherwise noted.
“Event Chats” are created on Instagram for each event. If you are selected for an event, you will find yourself in the “Event Chat” corresponding to that event. Invoices are sent via email from The Wandering Makers. Each vendor’s spot at the event is only reserved when their vendor fee invoice for that market is paid.
If vendor fee payment is not complete within 1 week of the vendor joining an “Event Chat”, the vendor will be notified and reminded to complete payment. If payment is not received, the vendor will lose their spot at the market. Vendors may decide to leave a market “Event Chat” within the first week of joining, before completing their payment. Once payments are made, they are NON-REFUNDABLE and NON-TRANSFERABLE, unless the event has to be canceled, or if there is a billing error on the part of TWM.
Thank you for your application! Please note that applying does not guarantee acceptance. Once your application fee has been paid, we will review your application. Upon review, we will reach out to you!
Applications submitted without payment of the Guest Vendor Application Fee will not be reviewed.
