I set up my table rather quickly as I had arranged all of my items in packing containers the day before. With all of the rushing I didn't have time to make a banner for my table, so I made sure that every item had a Yarncoture tag with pricing/sizing information. One small table held all of my spa/kitchen related items as well as my daughters' famous keychains (to which they sold quite a few), while the larger table held my hats, scarves, shawls and other miscellaneous items.
I had a quite few new items that were on display that I had not yet listed in my Etsy Shop and to my surprise, I sold a couple of them! My new head mannequin "Helga II" made her debut and definitely helped me to sell a couple of hats, one of which was a custom order that I whipped up and sold the very next day!
My daughters were with me again and they were as usual the social butterflies that they are! They hit every table and sold about 7 keychains between them. It was a wonderful experience for them as future businesswomen!
Overall, this craft fair proved to be yet again another wonderful learning experience. I got loads of helpful pointers and tips from other attending sellers and met a few new friends! Some of the wonderful shops in attendance were:
