The half circle is from a display company. Look under grid wall accesories. It hooks into the 2 grids so that you don't have any accidents. I'm sure that you could figure something out to make your own. Susie

We all have to be crazy to make things for Craft shows but that's what makes the world go round. I make dolls, quilts, jewelry, wall hangings & lots of recylced art. Moosegirl

So cute! I love this time of the year, only so I can take in all the church Bazaars and assorted craft and gift shows. Hope you did well this year.

Hope you did well at the Craft Fair. You had some lovely things to sell. Which was the favourite ? I hope all your hard work paid off. :)

well, I did my second fair this past Saturday. This fair was at my church, so I thought I might do better. HA!!! I made $50. By the time I paid for my booth rental ($35) and the concession stand food for my Mom and I for lunch ($10) I really didn't make anything. I guess I don't mind as much, though, because this was the youth group fundraiser for their short term mission trips next summer.
I have one more to go on Dec. 5 (at another church). I think I have had my fill. So much for making some extra MONEY.

my day at the craft show was a bust too. That said- I had a GOOD time! I saw people I haven't seen in a while, met a new friend (we belong to the same women's networking group) and ended up with a table runner for my table (I really didn't want to sell it).

I sold 1 runner and 2 of my FDIL's scarves. Bought lunch $5.00, table was $35 and I got some smelly wax tarts that I sniff often. So, I didn't make any money, but I had a good day.

FDIL said there is a craft show on 12/12 at her school (she is a teacher) and she said she will take the stuff and do a table that day. Since it's already made, sure! I was told about 1 the same day at a big nursing home so I'm debating......

Mine wasn't too great either on Saturday. The weather was too nice. Probably the last 50degree day for quite awhile. Have another one Thanksgiving weekend that usually is quite good....Hope..Hope..Hope......

Having a good time to me is what it is all about, when anything we do! Of course making money is even better!
