Crafter FAQ

Is the application online? Can I share it?
YES – https://plainfieldcraftshow.org/application/  

Do I need to send pictures if I am a returning crafter?
If you are a returning crafter, we do not need photos. For all new crafters who do not provide us with a Facebook, Etsy, or website link, we reserve the right to request photos prior to acceptance into our program.

Can I still pay with Cash, Check, or Zelle?
Starting with the 2024 Craft Show, we will no longer be accepting any forms of payment other than credit cards. We’ve had too many issues with checks going to the wrong places and/or written to the wrong organization.

Can I pay for my booth online or with a credit card?
Yes! If you’re a returning crafter applying for the 2024 Craft Show during the 2023 Craft Show, your credit card payment will be accepted with registration and will guarantee your spot in the 2024 Craft Show.

Is there a place to put extra stock, so that I can make less trips to my vehicle?
Yes. We open some classroom areas around the show, but this is limited shared space, so this is at your own risk.

I have a friend who does your show, can I request to be placed next to them?
You may request a certain location, but there is no guarantee. We do our best to honor all requests, but we cannot guarantee a space location for anyone who was not in the show the year prior.

Can I have the same space as last year?
If you were in the show the immediate year prior and you apply for the next year’s show, we will assign you the same space unless you tell us that you would like to move.  If you are a previous crafter but not in the year immediately preceding this show, your space may move but you are free to let us know your preference.

I don’t like my spot/neighbor, can I request a different location?
Please send an email to plainfieldcraftshow@gmail.com with any issues you may have and we will try to be as accommodating as we can. 

I need more than one space, can I take the one next to me?
If you are requesting more space than you had in the previous year’s Craft Show, we may need to move your location in order to accommodate your request, but we’re happy to help!

Is there Friday night set-up?
Setup is Saturday morning from 6-9 a.m. If we are able to have Friday night setup, we will notify you the week of the show.  We do not know whether this option will be available until the week of due to post-season football schedules.

I don’t need a lot of set up time, do I need to call?
No, please just mark it on your registration form.
