sorry to hear about your sales wow im thinking it must of been the type of crowd you had because from the looks of things you have some great looking crafts ( i like the purses) but you know i have gone to a craft sale and sold 3 or 4 things all day , then took the same stuff to another sale and sold alot of the same stuff , you just never know what kind of mood the buyers are in!! dont give up

That's too bad............Everything looks great! Especially your bags. Open and Etsy store and sell them on there.

Love your work...don't lose heart and keep trying, markets and Etsy might be the best bet.

What are Dick and Jane pillows?

Are you selling your pin cushions?

I have been doing crafts for sale for years, and there is never know what is in the mind of the person looking at your work. If they do nothing with their hands themselves, they have really no idea of the work. And some mother might have asked for two nailclippers for only $14.95...butif you order right now on line, they'll arrive in time. You didn't say how long the show went on, but try for at least an 8-hour show. PS: and remember at 4 to 6 everything slows down.

Keep your chin up, Craft fairs are so unpredictable. The next one you do you might sell out in an hour. I weave baskets and have done several shows some great and then there are the not so good ones. What I have found is that my cards for handquilting and repair that were handed out at the shows from several years back has paid off, It has amazed me the business that I have gotten from that. Hand out your business cards it's a great way to advertise your quilting.

What great items and so many to choose from. I say, have a yard sale or get a booth at a craft fair near you... They should sell lie hot cakes, especially the gift bags. Good luck. Your work is awesome.
