Craft Show Yesterday

[edward]

 Did  a craft show yesterday, and wasn't to bad did around $175, table was $30, so I guess it was  a good day, bigest sale was I sold my 515 train plaque for $45. Amd a good thing for the $5 ornaments which sold real well. Little disapointed that my interesting word art didn't sell.  The wife was disapointed as her scarfs didn sell, a lady across from us was selling hers for 3 for $5, which  my wifes were $10, and you can see the difference in quality.  Think I learned how to crop pictures, hopefully I can post later.  edward

On a positive note. You made money and not a bad return. My wife used to make jewelry and there were so many vendors selling it that it was too much. People look at things but I doubt they see the difference in quality. They seem to focus on price. All part of it I guess. Congrats on the sales.

Hope to see your pictures of the show. I am always impressed with the quality everyone has for sale.

 

A friend once tried selling a craft shows and had no luck.  Only other woodworkers saw the quality not the customers.

Glad you did well Edward but sorry about your wife.  Tell her that while she may not have sold anything she can be heartened in the fact that the people that bought cheap will soon realize why they were cheap when they start falling apart.

you did well I am always happy with a sale doing $150 but this time of the year we expect a sale of at least $200, but $150 is good, My last one was $160 tha wa $130 over table.
