ELIGIBILITY:
All items offered for sale must be created by YOU, the artist, artisan or craftsperson. Any items derived from kit work, wholesale or commercially purchased/manufactured products, or items that are in direct conflict with copyright infringement, will not be allowed. The artisan/craftsperson must be in attendance the day of the show.
SELECTION:
APPLICATIONS ARE JURIED and CURATED based on the originality, quality and craftmanship of the product you intend to sell.
Applicants who focus on one main product category may receive preference over applicants having multiple product lines.
Limits are imposed in categories to make for a varied and diverse show. Applicants not selected will be placed on the show's wait list.
BIO:
When it comes to your bio - keep it fresh and current. Don't just copy and paste from previous applications. Pack as much as you can into about 200 words that tell us about you.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
Tell us about your awesome products.
PHOTOGRAPHS:
Focus on photos! Since we won't be seeing your goods in person when the application is reviewed, your photos must be clear, crisp and in focus and show a good representation of the items you intend to sell.!
Use a consistent background without obstructions (i.e. no tables, chairs, purses, people, etc.) and don't forget a creative image of your
display set-up and one of your hands working on your craft. We want to see what you're all about, so please send high resolution photos and not thumbnails.
In order for your application to be juried, we require a submission of:
*4 digital images of your work and *1 digital image of your display set-up.
Please identify each photo clearly as to what it is - WITH A PRODUCT NAME - representing the "CURRENT" range of work that you intend to sell at the show.
*NOTE: JPG photo format - 300 dpi - not smaller than 1500 pixels and not larger than 4000 pixels in dimension -- no thumbnail photos!
PRESENTATION:
The professionalism and creativity of your booth display is a consideration in our applicant selection and helps to determine booth placement
in the show.
SOCIAL MEDIA AND ARTISAN PROMOTION:
Although Mistletoe Magic extensively promotes the event through advertising, promotion and social media campaigns, we do expect our artisans to help promote the show through social campaigns and within their creative communities. This helps to raise greater public awareness, and of your attendance at the show.
IT'S ALL ABOUT ... KEEPING IT SPECIAL, FRESH & UNIQUE:
As the original and best holiday market of handcrafted creations in the Quinte region and in celebration of 10 years of excellence, we continue to provide the most unique and inviting experience for both artisan and shoppers. Promoting and marketing the show with this in mind, is a huge priority to us. And in order to keep our mandate true, we kindly suggest that artisans, upon acceptance, not have their goods available in other like shows within a 48 hour window prior to, during and after the date of the show, within a 25 mile radius of Belleville.
IMPORTANT:

But keep in mind previous participation in any of our WeCreate artisan events (The Mother of all Craft Shows or Mistletoe Magic) does not guarantee or imply acceptance in to the current Mistletoe Magic Artisan Show.
Each show is juried and curated as a NEW SHOW due to the large number of submissions received.
Exhibitors are required to submit an item for raffle in accordance with Mistletoe Magic Artisan Show guidelines.
Artisans are responsible for applicable permits, product labels, health and safety designations, sales and tax collection, liability and property insurance.
