I hhave been doing shows for 6yrs now and The fees for the vendors have gone up and sales have gone down. I had to mark some of my items lower because of the economy. I have handmade sewing items and jewelry. Sometimes I make something like Jam or candy to help with the show cost. This weekend I am selling chocolate peanut clusters to help with the show cost. Good luck everyone at your shows.

My experience has been quite an assortment of inexpensive item's. Pin cushion's sold really well. I agree with having a few high end item's to draw people in to look. Many people who sew will come to just see how you put the high end item together, but the idea is to get them to purchase something. Small item's also add up. Hope this helps you and I hope you do really well
