keefie Posted July 19, 2013 Report Share Posted July 19, 2013 I did the first day of a three day craft fair today with my woodturning club. Sales were pretty poor as there wern't many people coming in, I think they all went to the beach to cool off, Here is a couple of pictures of the display and a picture of part of my display.

wombatie Posted July 20, 2013 Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 The wood turners club near us have a 3 day display and sales every year. Every year we go but I never see any one buy anything. Do you normally get good sales? Great display and your things are excellent. Marg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky2 Posted July 20, 2013 Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 (edited) Holy smokes, there's lots to look at there. It seems to be a bit disportionate the number of turners to the number of scrollers, but, it looks as if you did all scrollers proud. Personally, I've never sold anything at a showing, if it wasn't booked or advertised as a sale, people just came to look at what was there.

keefie Posted July 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 Those sure are purdy. What was used for the windmill. I did the same one but not as good and had breakage. The Windmill was made from 3mm birch ply and cut with a #1 FD UR blade (and I was lucky - no breagages.) Thanks everyone for the nice comments. There are 9 of us woodturners displaying there, but only one of us is a scroller too, so I had to make nice things to uphold the name of us scrollers. (hope I did ok.) Keefie.

heppnerguy Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 No kidding. I surely could not represent scrollers as well as you did as a turner.. very impressive keefie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you normally get good sales? Great display and your things are excellent. Marg Marg, at the last sale here in April, I sold £260.00 over a 2 day show, and the club took nearly £1400.00 in total wirh 10 members displaying their work.
