This morning I participated in my very first craft fair! I took a variety of things that I made - coasters, magnets, thumbtacks - along with things that my friend, Caitlyn, and grandmother made, too. I'm very happy to report that I almost sold out of EVERYTHING that I made! I should have brought more things, actually, because my coasters sold out in the first hour. Eli thinks I should have charged more, but I bet he doesn't remember that he helped me set the price for everything...
Caitlyn made really cute headbands. Those styrofoam heads are part of her displays. They have great detailing, and if I didn't get a headache everytime that I wore one, I would have been one of her customers, too!
My grandmother's hand-beaded jewelry is at the far left. She had gorgeous semi-precious stones in both plain and very creative designs.
The middle part of the table has all of my things. I really took a gamble with some of them, but everyone seemed to appreciate the hard work that went in to it all - and paid me for it! I also was able to get my Etsy shop's name out for the first time. Unfortunately, I have nothing posted because I was afraid that it would sell at the show and online at the same time. I was sort of right, so it looks like I'll be a busy girl, crafting so that I can post some new things for sale. Visit my Etsy shop, Poodle & Bug...there might be something that you want, too.
