Attention Texas creatives and shoppers, you’re going to want to mark October 29th on your calendar with the words Boerne Handmade Market in ALL CAPS. This fall is going to be their best market yet with over 80 of the best vendors around Texas, a coffee bar, food, live music, a place for the kids to play and a man cave for the guys!

About Boerne Handmade Market

BHM has been in operation since 2012 due to the hard work of co-founders Alyssa Mantooth and Rachel Russo.  Their desire was to give life to a space where their creative friends could feature and promote their creations and that’s exactly what they did! Little did they know it would continue to be a smashing success 5 years down the road. En route, Beth Zampese stepped in to fill the “co-organizer” role for Rachel Russo and this year she and Alyssa have pulled out all of the party tricks for a one-of-a-kind shopper experience!

Creatives from all over Texas are handpicked to sell their handmade goods! This makes BHM different from regular markets because it’s a “juried market” and there are no more than 8% of similar vendors. Each vendor is specifically selected because they are believed to be the best in their niche and there is a wide array of items sold at each market so you’re sure to find something that you love: home decor, accessories, clothing, and art – there will be something for everyone!

To give you a better idea, a few of the vendors you will find at BHM this year are: Karma Candle Makers, K. Johnson Jewelry, JAX & BELLE, and Immeasurable.
