'Stay and Friends’ makers market among holiday appearance highlights

We first met Jennie Bowman (Jennie Bowman Designs) at Stay’s inaugural appearance in November 2017, when we were fellow vendors at MarketPlace Hershey.

Our acquaintance with Meredith Judge (Burlap & Bows) began at Market on Chocolate in Hershey in summer 2018.

Pamela Luu (Still Not a Hippie) was across from us at the Harrisburg Flea on Labor Day weekend 2018.

We’re proud to call them friends and honored that they — along with 12 other makers — will be joining us for the “Stay and Friends Holiday Makers Market” on Dec. 1, 8 and 15 at the Cocoa Beanery, 1215 Research Blvd., Hummelstown.

As the host, Stay will be at each of these intimate shows, which will run from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. We’ll be joined by five different vendors each week, which we hope will keep things fresh and give shoppers a reason to attend each week.

Admission is free, but we are collecting new men’s white or black crew socks for Shepherd’s Closet at Trinity United Methodist Church in Hummelstown. Please consider donating.

You can find all the details, including the vendor lineup and links to their websites, at StayAndFriends.com.

We hope to see you there or at any of our many other appearances in November and December.

Happy Holidays!
