The attendance was dropping at the craft shows around here back in 2002. When I first started in 1996, the shows were packed and long waiting lists just to get a booth space. It was said to see them go down hill. I went to one in 2004 but things hadn't improved any. The economy here is way down. The retail part of Cracker Barrel food chain is also reflecting the downed economy as well as their eating side. People just do not have that much extra money to spend on crafts here. I hope you are in a better area. What clynns told you is excellent advice. Add a few decorations to your booth. Make sure your area is well lit. By all means cover the tables. It will help to make your booth more professional looking and give you a place to hide your things under and out of the way. Good luck.
