Results of Saturdays show

Had a good show today doubled over last year cane away with $467, could have done more if I would have  more items that I sold. I sold 15 $5 ornaments, which really helps. Traffic came in spurts, and  not really heavy.  Had a lot of complements and repeat customers. Seams like more people had cash then previous years, only had a couple items on the card. Overall these fall shows have been good.

Good to hear. Perhaps the economy really up.

Good for you Edward. Can probably never have enough stock. Never know what works for folks year to year.

Nice Edward, Always good to have a successful show.

Maybe you need to start to make the $5 Christmas ornaments straight after Christmas last way you will have plenty by the time you need them. 
Great to hear that the cash rolled in.  Do you have anymore before Christmas?

Big Congrats,on your show.

Congrats on the great sales... inventory always comes up short.. Last year you do great on a certain item so you focus on making a bunch for the next year and only sell a couple and you then sell out of something else, LOL Never fails.. Only if we could read what the shoppers would be looking for each year.. it'd sure take a lot of guesswork out of what to make next.. LOL

Glad you had a good show. This fall it seems as though a lot of people are opting for cash as my card sales have gone down and cash sales were up. Not too many checks either . We are done with shows for this year. Too many orders to get out and still getting phone calls and e mails for Christmas items. A good problem to have but the time is running short to get all done.

I too finished a show and agree the economy may have hit a turn for the better. Glad to see you as well as others doing well this craft show season. I can relate to inventory thing because you never know what the big seller will be one year to next. I ran out of a few things myself.I will make more and try again next year. Thanks or posting results. It helps other crafters doing this or thinking about doing them.

Our woodworking club had a craft show this weekend that is free for members to setup and they sold $4000 dollars worth of things. This is the most they have done. It's not bad for those that sell items you don't have to be there to man your setup somebody collects the money and you get your check Monday.
