That's very exciting. At least it makes up a little for the stinky show. Hopefully you'll do even better at the next parties! Good luck.

Yippeee!!!!!

That is wonderful!

I have only done home shows so far (I take the craft show plunge next week) and have done well with them. Like I said before, I had one lady drop $160 on my stuff without batting an eye It seems the ladies at these home parties WANT to and PLAN to spend money, where maybe craft show goers are looking for the best deal?!

How are you feeling?

aww thanks girls!! I actaully revamped my set up! I am still going to use grids for shows, BUT instead of pegs, I bought clear shoe bags, and bow boards, I put all my clippies on the bow boards (without cards) and all my bows and stuff in the shoe bags, set up literally takes me 15 min, as opposed to 3 hours it is FANTASTIC! Then when I am done, I just fold up the shoe bags, but them in a tote and off I go, it works WONDERFUl for home shows too! I really think I am going to focus on the home shows, you figure there is NO overhead (other then the 80.00 in free product she will be getting, if you break it down, at MOST I am losing 20 bucks!! ) But seriously these ladies went CRAZY running to buy, filling their baskets the the max lol it was SO much fun!!!

I'd love to see a visual of your set up also. Congrats on such a successful show!!! I wonder if there would be interest in this in my area.
