Week 7 of Owning a Brick-and-Mortar Vintage Store

A Look Behind the Scenes of Our First Market, First Shoot, and Everything In Between

First Night Market

This past Saturday, I hosted the very first Newell Vintage Night Market and it was nothing short of magical. Six incredible vendors joined us, and the energy throughout the night was something special.

What really stood out to me, though, were the conversations I had with the vendors afterward. So many of them commented on how kind, warm, and genuinely lovely the customers were. That kind of feedback filled my heart.

I truly believe the energy you put out into the world comes back to you and hearing that made me feel like we're building something really meaningful here.

One of the vendors shared that she made more in just two hours at our market than she usually makes in 12 hours at one of the largest local flea markets. Hearing that was such an incredible compliment. We had hundreds of people show up. It reminded me that this space really can be something special for both the community and the vendors who are part of it.
