Prices start getting higher the closer it gets to Christmas. I don't think I could get 65.00 for aprons but then I never tried. There has been clothes sold at very high prices that I wouldn't pay 5.00 at Walmart. I didn't sell the last 2 years but went and people were selling, though they are starting to put limits on the amount of jewerly booths and the amount of commercial booths. Jewerly got out of hand everyone was making it and a lot wasn't very good. Commercial booths hurt all the crafters and shouldn't be allowed in any show listed as arts and crafts.
Exactly, I was so disappointed in Affairs of the heart this year! most of the booths were either bling or bling and I was there to see crafts not commericial booths I can see them at the malls!
