Christmas in Cowtown

edit: I realize I published this late- I apologize for that! We met so many wonderful people at Christmas in Cowtown and got to hear your wonderful memories of playing games with your families. Thank y’all for sharing those with us and supporting our small business!

This year is our first year at the Fort Worth Christmas Roundup and boy are we excited! 


And also a little nervous. 


Our business started out at the Farmers Market in Amarillo and we transitioned online. As with most businesses, we went fully online in 2020. Now we are starting to get back out into markets and other events.  


We love selling in-person at markets and shows. We love to meet fellow game players. And we love showing our product to people before they buy it. 


We know that it’s early to think about Christmas shopping for most of you, but for anyone working in the retail business October is almost too late. We find ourselves setting our cutoff date for custom orders for Christmas delivery earlier and earlier each year. 


Stop by to see us if you’re in the Texas area will be at the Fort Worth Christmas roundup from October 12th through the 16th. We are in booth 100. We would love to meet you and help you find your next Christmas gift! 


And as a bonus you may be able to get all your Christmas shopping done at this venue. That's one of the things we missed most about going to these shows on a regular basis. We love shopping at our fellow vendors’ booths. We love to support handmade artisans and local businesses. 


We like to include a challenge or a game night or activity in a blog post each month, so for October let’s do the shop local challenge. If you live near Fort Worth, Texas - come visit us! But if you don’t, why don’t  you take this month to search your local area to find out what Christmas markets or local venues are happening. Or take a Saturday and visit your local shops in person. Enjoy this amazing freedom that we didn’t have during 2020. And spread the word with a comment below with where you’re going or where you went and how it was. We are building a community of people who love to game and we’d like to know where you shop for these games.
