I know this isn't what you want to hear but just take as many of each thing as you can get ready. There really is no "set" amount. Good luck!

I agree! Only a few of each color or type. I made a ton in every color I thought would sell. BIG mistake. I am flooded with bows now. Just a few in each design or varied colors.

I agree- take as many as you can make- but try to have a variety. Also- be prepared to make more to replace what you sold the day before.

I agree with the ladies as well. For our first show, I tried to get in a certain number of bows (500 for a one day show) & was pulling all-nighters to do so. My DH told me that they will never miss what they don't know was "suppose" to be there...he was right & the show was still a success! Best of luck!!

Have not done a craft fair but at consignment sale I take minimum of 5 of each color (basic colors) My better sellers red, light pink, bright pink, white I take more.

well when my mom and i make victorian jewelry to sell we have to have a HUGE stock. last year we came pretty close to selling out! All necklaces, bracelets, barrettes, brooches and a few other things are all one of a kind. we made almost $3,000 in the 3 day show. the last thing i want is to completely sell out on the first day. thats why i was curious how many things i need to make of each.

my moms victorian jewelry booth is right next to my booth. here is a few pics of the jewelry we make. i dont have any pics of the clips i made. im still waiting on a bunch of supplies so i can finish them.

here is a pic of my moms booth,

Gorgeous jewelry! I love the fairy!

Your mom's stuff is really pretty. It looks like you are doing the "bigger" shows. Take LOTS!!

thank you. it will be my moms 31st year doing this craft fair. my 29th year )i was raised under the table at craft shows) LOL yes its fairly big. 5 buildings of crafts. small town show but lots of people come to it. i hand painted the fairy anklet. i sell out of them every show. fairys go so quickly!! so im thinking like 100 of each to bring. hopefully my supplies get here soon. its been 3 weeks now since i got them off ebay.
