First Fall Show Review

I had my first show of the fall season this past weekend. All in all, it was a good show. There was a lot of traffic all day, which is a lot to be said for an 11 hour show!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I shared a booth with a friend that I do a lot of shows with. We had an end space, so we each got 1.5 sides of a 10'x10' booth. Here are my displays:
This was the first show I took my glassware to. I only sold 2 beer mugs, but I had a lot of interest in custom orders. So we'll see if I start to get orders on Etsy (whenever I get my glass listed!)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I sold a good mix of items. 5 or 6 scrapbooks, a pendant, 2 mugs, a set of etched glass in frames (my first sale for this too), a wood greeting card, two set of coasters and some other items. Usually one item sells better than others, but this time it was a little of everything. I'm glad that people like everything I have to offer :) But now I don't know what to make more of for my next show...LOL! I guess this will give me time to work on the custom orders I received from the show.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Look for another review next week as I already have my second show next weekend!

  6. Wow Edi, what a great show and I am so happy for you!

    Looks like the scrapbooks/albums are great sellers everywhere.

    How about etched glass sets, lets say with a last name?

    You have awesome Karma!!!

  10. I know I am definitely in shopping mode when fall rolls around, so it's a great time to do shows! I like you set up, you seem to have figured out the best way to utilize a small space and show the most amount of items without cluttering too much. Great job!
