Craft Fair Advice?
Hey, so, I might be tabling at a craft fair in November to benefit some friends' kids' school. One of the girls in my knit group suggested it to me last night and since the table fee seemed reasonable and I have a fair amount of merchandise, I figured "why not?"
So my question is: other than my merchandise, what should I bring with me? Snacks, change, stuff to wrap things in, etc? Any other tips/advice from those who've tabled at craft fairs?
Also, my apologies if this question comes up all the time. I looked through the first couple pages of threads and didn't see it...and tbh I gave up after that.
Re: Craft Fair Advice?
I would take something to make your product look nice and stay organized. If you have hats, maybe find something to sit one on that looks like a head. I usually get good ideas by googling "craft show set up" and seeing all the inventive display ideas that way. We usually put a table cloth on the table so that we can hide our tubs/totes/extra stock under the tables. It makes everything look nice and neat. Make sure everything is either individually priced or make a few signs that have prices on them so you can set them around in your booth.
I would take a few small snacks, but nothing too big. I imagine they'll have food vendors (I would check to see if they will and if they don't, I would either bring something to eat for lunch or have someone bring me something -- we've done this in the past). Make sure to have plenty of change too.
If you feel comfortable, I would take some projects to work on. People like seeing products being made. I'm always in awe of knitters/crocheters because I can't do it and I'm not coordinated enough to do it!
