Our Family Designs

We’ve done a lot of markets, and this is what we never show up without.

Some of these are simple fixes that make your setup easier.

Some of them are the difference between blending in and actually getting sales.
And yeah… a good chunk of what you’re seeing here we design and build ourselves.

Displays that fit your products.
Signage that actually gets noticed.
Booth setups that feel clean, intentional, and easy to shop.

If you’re getting ready for markets, save this for later.

If you’re ready to upgrade your setup, we’ve got you.

Capturing the magic of our market family is one of my favorite parts of working with the Merchantile Market. Every photo and video here was taken by me, and I would love to work with even more of you this season!

If you are vending at the Merchantile Market and want photos or video of your booth or products, message me and let’s make it happen.

And if you see one of your small business besties on the vendor list, tag them below so they do not miss a chance to have their art captured at next weekends event!
