Sumner Newscow report – Wellington is soon to be the top destination for shopaholics from across the area.

The New and Vintage Treasure Show returns on Saturday, Oct. 24 with its first ever holiday market. The event will take place from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Heritage Park and in Memorial Auditorium , 208 N. Washington.

“When we were planning our June market, we had vendors asking us for dates for our holiday show,” said Tawnya Ybarra, New and Vintage Holiday Market Co-Hostess, “that made our decision to have another show very easy.”

In June, Ybarra and her New and Vintage partner Jessica Seeliger – both stay at home moms who also owned home-based businesses —  hosted their first market based on lessons learned while participating in other shows.

“We wanted a good mix of re-purposers, artist, crafters, clothing vendors and direct sales, something for everyone,” Seeliger said.

This show is building on those ideas.

“We really tried to have a festival vibe at our June show and focus on a family atmosphere,” Ybarra said. “But this time, we are focusing on women, women who want to celebrate the best things about fall – decorating their homes for the upcoming holidays, buying gifts for those on their Christmas list and maybe even a little something from themselves too.”

“We have kind of changed our approach to taking on new vendors also,” Seeliger added. “We are not taking on any new direct sales representatives this time. We are happy to welcome back those that are asking to return from our past show, but when it came to new vendors, we wanted to focus more on crafters, junkers, and unique one-of-a-kind businesses.”

The New and Vintage Holiday Market is about at capacity with more than 70 vendors, many of those with large set ups taking on more than one booth.  And the list of vendors asking about a Spring show is even longer. The pair say as much as they would like to have a date for their next show set before Saturday’s show, that is proving to be a problem.

“We have already out grown Memorial and the park!” Ybarra said. “We have been searching for a larger venue and hope to have a place secured for those a spring and next year’s holiday show in the next couple weeks.”

You will be able to find everything from clothing to crafts, metal art to make-up, art to holiday décor at the Oct. 24 show. You can even get a chair massage, have lunch, a cup of coffee and a sweet treat for dessert  at the Oct. 24 show. Confirmed vendors as of Oct. 14 are:
