Linda I loved hearing about the show. I've been doing them in SW Florida for 3 years now. I too don't just do this for the $ however that's nice too. The vendors become like your 2nd family. Your display looks great and inviting. I plan to get to AZ. But this is the season now in Florida so lots of markets happening.
This is why I have a space in an antique shop so I can shop for it and refinish furniture and sell it and it’s great to be with people at 78 years old!
The new improved booth set up looks even better! Your booth looks very professional & classy! I also sell at all different kinds of shows (prints , cards & stickers of artwork). Some shows are good sales and some not so much. BUT I have made great contacts as well as I have gotten commission work from the shows. I enjoy the people but to be honest the set up & take down is exhausting sometimes, I do love a sale where I can stay set up overnight for a 2 day sale. I enjoyed seeing your booth and products, as well as seeing your creative process and the packaging and display planning. I love seeing what other vendors set ups are like. I can’t wait to hear about how your 10 day sale went! I like seeing all of your Go-See-Do content…. As well as your many projects and goings on at your landing zone cottage!
Cups, you can make a stencil with your Cricut and paint for ceramics. Then, bake them to seal the paint. I have done this with plates and cups in the past.
The photography is nice but the price is too high. Thats why they are not selling. Your cards are priced right and you have deals you offer that help sales.
LOL.. okay. I price them according to others.. less than professionals. I really think area and what your market will bear. I have “deals” on the photos too. I’ve only had them at two very small markets LoL
CONGRATULATIONS on your $ALE$ Linda! Did you ever consider selling your BOOKS? See you soon, and I'm looking forward to helping at your booth! Marie ❤️
Nice setup. I have always enjoyed your Say It Display It. Your stand was well organized and professional. I feel you will do well at the sale o rama. Photographs can be real hit or miss. Personally I purchase photos that speak to me because my own photography is not great. Taking a photo is not natural or 2nd nature for me and doesn't allow me to experience places and things to the fullest, when I am trying to document my experiences. My school photos were always so bad, and I think that did not help me with using a camera. I used photos to document construction in my career too, and that requires different techniques than portraits or nature photography. I can't wait for my winter break from my obligations and responsibilities at my homebase. Safe travels and Blessings.
Just a suggestion change the color of the table covers to reflect the seasons. Red for Christmas. Gold or orange for fall. The color seems to attract the people to come into your tent.
Not interested in doing that.. black is classy.. I add the teal color for pop and want consistency in my branding. Did you see the red cloth at the first show?😉
I'm a first time commentor to your channel and if you can get a mug dishwasher and microwave safe I would certainly be interested in a mug with the very messages you held up in the video and showed. Your display looked very pretty!
I have bought your cards and a larger box. I love them. You should look into Joyces craft fairs up in New Hampshire. Her shows go from May to November. You would do well. And since you bring your motel with you( motels are expensive up there in the summer and fall now so many sleep in their cars) you would make make 1000 or more. Shows are two or three days. Well advertized and well attended. They are in four or five different areas of New Hampshire. Many tourists from all over the world. Joyce is a delight to work with. She lost her husband a few years ago but continues to organize the shows. An added plus the mountains and lakes are beautiful each season. You could take some more photos for your collection.
Thanks for the breakdown! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). Could you explain how to move them to Binance?
Since you are going out west to Arizona, try the Texas craft shows in the winter. The craft vendors many i know go south to Texas in the winter to do shows.
I have done many shows ovet the last six years. We did 1000 dollars or more a day. This past year for all venders was not a good year for sales. Barely made enough to cover expensives. People just dont have extra money with inflation to spend money on extras. Hopefully as the economy gets better next year there will be more buyers. Most people are just looking. Even middle class families with good incomes are struggling to pay increase cost of basics. Many have a simpler Christmas dinner and homemade presents this year.
Sure, great! I’ve had all kinds of days as I mentioned.. been doing shows since I was first married in the 80’s. Can’t compare one person to another.. sales, what you sell and what you clear is two different things.. I’m sure you know.. based on your margins. 😊😉
The set up looked fabulous! So well put together. So interesting hearing people's stories thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much! Your comment means a lot to me🤗🙏❤️
The setup looks really nice. Blessings with your business. 🙏.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment! I agree about the work before and after! Not for the faint of heart LOL
hello darlin :)
Oh I liked the new earrings, how fun! I'm a fan of dangles. 😊
Cups, you can make a stencil with your Cricut and paint for ceramics. Then, bake them to seal the paint. I have done this with plates and cups in the past.
Thanks for the great tip! 🙏❤️🤗
Awesome setup...You could compile the people you meet with their stories in another book. Thank you for the video. Blessings to you.
Depends if you are selling or buying. Usually, they are fun to browse, but too expensive for my taste.
The photography is nice but the price is too high. Thats why they are not selling. Your cards are priced right and you have deals you offer that help sales.
LOL.. okay. I price them according to others.. less than professionals. I really think area and what your market will bear. I have “deals” on the photos too. I’ve only had them at two very small markets LoL
Looks like things are looking up.
You look very pretty today Linda. Your hair is so beautiful and the earrings peek out at the bottom. So, nice. God Bless your day!😊
CONGRATULATIONS on your $ALE$ Linda! Did you ever consider selling your BOOKS?
See you soon, and I'm looking forward to helping at your booth! Marie ❤️

I love the color of that shirt! I want one!
Your prices are really reasonable 😊
Nice looking display

What a cute setup.How have you been?
I’m doing great. Curious why you ask.. Have you not seen my journey in a bit? Been posting 3X a week.. Appreciate your compliment!🤗🙏❤️

No thanks. I’ve done shows in Texas when I lived there and also as a full time nomad. Not looking to do that now.
Hi Linda! Will the mugs be available in you online store?
Not sure atm

You are forgetting the repeat business.
Indeed. Not forgetting.. just didn’t mention.
Looks amazing! Thanks for sharing!
