Default Re: Day Two Craft show/photos

Thank you all so much for the kind words! I have used you all for preparing for this show so I would have a clue as to what I was doing. I did finally go "visit" the other bow booth to see what she was selling. I must say that I had quality and she had quantity. I wasn't impressed with her bows as she did take what I call the "quick route" on making her bows. But, I was happy to hear that she didn't do too well either.


My spinning displays came from AC Moore. It is a great display. But it seems like something great to have in an area where you have limited space. The other lady had all of her clippies on strips of ribbon or on the boards with ribbon like many on here have shown. I didn't want all of my stuff to be hard to take down due to the big rain that came on Saturday afternoon. Plus I had most clippies on the business cards. I didn't want all of those flimsy from the rain.

YES!!! My tent roof did leak and I was given the great advice to waterseal the seams, however I didn't have time to do that. Thank you Ainsley for the great advice!!!!

On Sunday I only made about $11.00. All on clippies! So a total of about $75.00 for a three day show. I will try and find someone to buy these bows, but I feel like I spent so much money and got so little in return.

Again, I wish you all well in your craft shows and I read and use advice from all of you for everything I do. You are all great ladies and I appreciate your help in my first show. Please take whatever from my booth you like and use it as you wish. I'm one of those people who like to always find something new, so I doubt it will look the same the next time around.
