    $45 for those larger plushies in my eyes are very normal , if not slightly under priced

      IMO every crocheted item is priceless considering the time it takes plus the cost of supplies (especially the yarn!). 😊

    I absolutely love using those folding bamboo shelves for craft shows. I even have other sellers ask me where I get them. They are so easy to transport, look amazing, and are inexpensive. I also use wood crates like you have!
    It's really interesting to hear what you sold. I did two craft shows last year at the end of October/beginning of November and the items that sold were so different at each. I don't sell much crochet (I repurpose quilts and vintage textiles) but I did throw in a couple crochet ear warmers and tons of crochet pumpkins that I made while I had covid and was bed-ridden for a month. Those items sold like crazy, especially the pumpkins, so I'm going to incorporate more crochet items in this fall's shows.
    I find the same thing as you where some scoff at prices and others are perfectly fine with it. My products are somewhat niche and I realize that not everyone sees the value in what I make, but plenty do. Keep up the hard work - your items are amazing!

    Beautiful booth. You popped up on my feed, subscribed. I do markets as well but I’m a knitter with a touch of crochet. All of my stuffies/dolls are knit. I think you have some beautiful items and your colours are on point. Congratulations on your success! I also admire your assertiveness in replying to negative feedback. You’re doing great!

    Oh what dialogue did you have with customers when taking an active approach to selling? Helpful info to share.

    • @backtoedencrochet
      @backtoedencrochet  3 місяці тому

      I always like to invite people to touch and feel everything. People seem to think they’re not allowed to touch things but I think something as simple as “Hi! Feel free to touch anything. All the yarns are very soft.” Really welcomes people without being pushy and it’s open ended too. They can just smile back or say thanks or ask questions. I like to be welcoming but also not make people think they need to speak to me.

      Did you cut out the cup insert with a cricket or something similar? I’ve watched this video a few times. I love that you have more than just toys. So many different things. I have not done a market yet obviously still doing research 😂. I will start working on more different items. Thank you for sharing your set up. It looks very welcoming.

    • @dantosinferne
      @dantosinferne 7 місяців тому

      @backtoedencrochet and when you post publicly, you will get criticism. Mine is fair so take it as you will. I won't be returning to watch more, but others might, sure. you deserved to know why you lost a viewer. Most people watching this kind of content are crocheters interested in markets, right? So they are probably crocheting while watching, aka put you on for background noise. Not for silence or for a longterm dj. And they're probably interested in the business side. Which means the numbers matter. You do you. But if you're that uncomfortable sharing the numbers, you probably shouldn't make publicly available content about selling your products where your audience will primarily be other small businesses interested in doing markets too. Plenty of small businesses die because their response to criticism is "it's MY business! I'll run it how I want!", which isn't wrong, but that attitude has ruined many entrepreneurs. believe me on that one.....good luck out there
