2 Weekends, 2 Craft Shows

The very first craft show I did for Snapdragon was not a resounding success.  I only sold four earrings.  And that was over 2 days.



I learned a lot though, and applied it to this past Saturday's show, which was a lot better.  There was a pretty good crowd until later in the afternoon.  I sold seven earrings and a necklace and gave away a lot of business cards.  


I have two more shows in two weekends and I'm hopeful about both.  I may sign up for a couple shows in December.

I haven't sold anything online yet, but I should get some more traffic from doing shows.  I'll keep you guys posted.

  2. Wow, what a beautiful, intricate display! Much different than the usual corkboard/black felt of most craft shows.

    Sidenot: What's up with the sticky notes on the fan?

  3. Sticky notes on what fan? In the bottom picture, that's a wire hat mold my mom picked up somewhere. (it's probably old, but I'm not sure) And I hung some of my earrings on there. To display my earring on the white shutters, I folded a brown piece of paper and put my stamp on the bottom. I punch holes for the earring backs and hang them. I put these same paper hangers on the hat mold to add visual interest.

    Oh, and I just found out if you click on the picture it makes it bigger, so you can see what it is better.
