My sister and I used to do craft shows several years ago. She made jewelry and I did sewn items. At first we did well, then it started to go down hill. The shows were before Christmas. One year there were 3 shows in my home town on the same weekend and the admission was very reasonable. We thought it would be a great weekend. Sold very little and there were tons of people going through. That was the last show I ever did. The booth next to us had hand made wooden toys, very reasonably priced and he sold NOTHING. We felt very bad for him. As it was we made only a little over the cost of the booth. Now if I go to a craft show, it is to see new things that I can copy.
