My cousin asked me to put some things in a craft show that I make. Well I have two weeks and yes I knew before now but have put it off:( Can anyone give me some ideas on something quick and easy to make to sale in the craft show and what you think I should charge. I have never done anything like this and I don't know why I agreed I never feel that anything that I make is worth saleing. Thanks a bunch for any suggestions you can give me.

place mat sets are usually pretty quickly made. Usually sold in sets of 4, and it's nice to have matching napkins. Make some Xmas tree decorations-I made a bunch last hear and gave them as gifts-they were quick and easy. If it's an Xmas craft fair, make stuff in Xmas fabrics. Tons of free patterns on line!

Maybe something for Christmas. Your cousin sure seem confident that you are good at it.

Mug Rugs could be a big hit especially if they have a matching real mug!

I used to do craft shows and did pretty well with toilet tank doilies. They're like a single placemat, rectangular with rounded corners. I think I made them to finish off to 9" x 19". Make them reversible, with different holiday fabrics on each side. Inexpensive and you can use up a bunch of your stash too!

I'm preparing for a show in Oct. Making Nook and Kindle covers, Ipad covers, table runners, taggy cuddle squares, hot pads (maple leaves and cupcakes), table toppers and bookmarks. I have no idea how much to price them.
Good luck with yours. Let us know how it goes.

I like the little chicken pin cushions found here on the board. Quick, easy to make and darling!

I made a bunch of cute pocket tissue holders for our bazaar. They sold like hotcakes for $1 each. Go to search, type in "Super super easy tissue holders" and you will get pix by pix instructions.
