craftgrrl | outdoor craft shows? (Reply)

I just found out a few days ago that I got accepted to my first juried fair (or rather, set of juried fairs)! There's going to be a really nice First Saturdays Art Market in my neighborhood.

What does this mean? Well, I get a 10x10 BOOTH, for starters. I am very excited and very nervous about that! I've never had a booth before, much less at an outdoor show. I bought a canopy tent at a store a few weeks ago, anticipating that I might eventually have to use it (it was on sale for $40). But I'll need to test it out and make sure it can withstand the wind, etc...I wonder if I should attempt to get "walls" for it (probably plastic sheeting)?

Any tips whatsoever about doing outdoor fairs with a "real booth" would be much appreciated. :)

Thanks!
