Wanted to post some pics of this past weekend's craft show - not really a big, deal, but it was my first 'official' craft show, meaning the first that I had to shell out money for a booth.
For my first official show, it didn't go all that badly. It was at my old high school and seemed to be more of a flea market than an actual craft show comprised of hand made crafts. (Lesson #1 learned: going forward, only apply for booths that require crafters only.) Most of the people really seemed to like my stuff as I received more compliments than money - which was nice for my confidence if not my wallet. I thought that I had had some sure fire sellers. I came home with just about all of those sure fire sellers - thanks to my family, I didn't have to come home with all of them (Lesson #2 learned: I really have no idea what is going to sell, and what isn't.).
I did receive some applications for some upcoming crafters only shows, so I feel like I'm at least getting my foot in the crafting door. I have a couple more shows lined up for this upcoming fall, and I'm already looking forward to those as I can let my inner-Halloween run rampant.
Ok, enough babble, here's the pics...and a special thank you to my Aunt Barb, who was kind enough to spend the entire day booth sitting with me!!
