I just donated 3 table runners to fund raiser. My points weren't real great. They wanted to know how much I'd like them sold for. I suggested $15 so they priced them at $20. A lady bought all 3. After she paid she told me I should re-think my prices as she'd just bought one at another booth for $60.

HOLY COW!! $60!
I think, too...it all depends on the area.
I'm pricing my things on the low side, but there's always next year where I can up the prices. I'm also hoping too, that I can look around and see what else is up for sale. Just got an e-mail in saying another crafter rented a table.

Wow $60 is right! I'm going to go with $20 and hope for the best. Can I ask what the best seller at craft fairs are for all of you? I've got so far, 3 tote bags, 10 pot holders, 4 sets of 6 coasters, travel pillows, and two table runners. It's a six hour fair, what's everyone's opinion on quantity...does that seem like enough? I just don't want to sell out... :shock:

Oooh, that's a lovely runner! It makes me feel more like winter than the 90+ degrees it is outside right now....
I haven't been to a craft fair in years, so can't help you on the prices.
Good luck to all of you selling in the upcoming weeks!

I have my table runners priced from $20 - $23 for something similiar. I actually sold a lot this past weekend at my craft show. People were buying 2-3 at a time!! I sold a ton of potholders and coaster sets. And probably about 60 microwave potato baker bags! Plus tons of other stuff. I was very happy when I left there, except now I have to get ready for a craft market this Saturday. Plus I have about 5 special orders to get done. I averaged about $125 an hour!!!!! Not bad for a show. I wish you the best of luck with yours.
