HOLIDAY SHOPPING KICK OFF

They have "Black Friday" and we have "Black Saturday".....


What is Black Friday?
The day after Thanksgiving in the United States, is frequently referred to as Black Friday.

General Use: One of the major U.S. holiday shopping days. The day many U.S. consumers begin Christmas shopping. The day is heavily promoted by retailers.

Origin: The origin of Black Friday comes from the shift to profitability during the holiday season. Black Friday was when retailers went from being unprofitable, or "in the red," to being profitable, or "in the black", at a time when accounting records were kept by hand and red indicated loss and black profit.

Also Known As: The day after Thanksgiving and "Opening Day" of the Holiday Shopping Season.

Welcome Crafter and Vendor Friends

FINALLY!

A much needed place for Long Island crafters and vendors to get together..share information,...ideas...ask questions...connect with one another...

This blog is an extension of Par 3 Productions and welcomes all of its vendor friends to post here, check in on what happening with Par 3 events...where.....when.....refer vendors to us...give us your feedback....and suggestions.

Event planning.....fundrasing...retail sales.... are all in our blood and is something we have grown up around ...made careers out of...volunteered at...for most of our lives......but....most importantly.....and we are vendors at heart...so we have lots to share......and are always eager to plan and promote events that give attention to the details that are important to vendors.....and of equal importance, we recognize a need for vendors and crafters on Long Island to have a place to get information...and to avoid the dire need to scour and search the local newspapers in hopes of finding a fair...

We talk to, and meet, many vendors and crafters each day.....our starting this "blog" has been ignited by you asking for a place to be in touch with other Long Island Crafters and Vendors...either to "talk shop"... or simply to keep the friendships going beyond the confines of a 7 hour Craft Fair.........we heard you...and have stepped forward to give you that place.

Time after time, vendors tell us that they wished there was a mechanism for "finding out" about events and fairs...to that we say...LET THIS BE THE PLACE.....and keep in touch with us, as we do with you, by our regular email updates ....to stay informed about all of our Crafter/Vendor Events ....and always know.....we are just an email away (par3prods@yahoo.com).

We would like for this blog space to be YOUR blog space... we 've started it ...but its yours to enjoy, use and share.

Don't be shy...come on in and join us....as vendors on Long Island you all know one another anyway...and as event planners..we have had the wonderful pleasure of getting to know each of you as well...don't wait until you "run into" one another at a fair in the future..stay connected here.....

Now that you're here....be sure to show your best side...the side that everyone likes and loves...keep your words kind, your good graces on call...make your criticisms few...... and most importantly...make this a place that you...and others...will enjoy coming to.

So glad you've joined us.....
