danny Posted September 22, 2023 Report Share Posted September 22, 2023 (edited) LSS....Many, many years back I got into Designing (Pencil n Paper) Jig Saw Puzzles. Various Sizes and Shapes. Each I also made a Custom holding Tray. I also gave each a Paint job. Out of a Spray Can. Hehe Way back FIRST CRAFT SHOW. I set them up (last count 14) on a table and I remember only asking 5 to 10 Dollars each. Never forget So, so many people saying look good. Only ONE sold that day. Next year tried once more.... NONE sold. Got Frustrated and put them into a coupld boxes and to this day they have been in them two boxes. So....The Question. What would be your Advice to do? Thot about The Decorator Firewood thing, but nah. So I shall just wait till the Jury arrives at the right thing to do. Oh nuff on this.... Any comments good or not so good will be Good. The Sizes vary from small 6 inch to large 12 inch square or Rectangle. Most all cut from 3/4" Pine. Some 1/2". OK nuff for sure....

Joe W. Posted September 22, 2023 Report Share Posted September 22, 2023 Bundle them with another item or two and see if that sparks a sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are doing craft shows, it's just another item on your table. I'd like to see pics of what you are talking about. It might give me other ideas. danny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmmcrafts Posted September 23, 2023 Report Share Posted September 23, 2023 Advertise them as antiques.. not false advertising if it was that long ago, LOL.. Trying to sell things sometimes is odd with pricing... list it cheap and nobody sees any value in their purchase.. make it pricey and sometimes people buy it up.. of coarse that works both ways too.. It's really about getting it seen by the right person.. Like Ray said.. maybe your timing was off.. give it another go.. If that fails you could always donate them to a charity or goodwill or something.. danny, Mark SW, MarieC and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danny Posted September 24, 2023 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 Thank You to Everyone.... :+} Kind of decided to take and basically I want to just Offer one to a Buying Customer. Like my Thanks. And from this post I will sent a few out and Price Accordingly. I like the thot of labeling as Antiques. This should get the Conversation started. People are Always Curious. Thanks to All..........Danny :+} MarieC, kmmcrafts and Fab4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
