A text post. Isn't that super.
Anyway, there's a craft fair or some such thing going on in my area in a couple of months and I think I'm gonna go for it, especially since it would seem that no one in the area wants to hire me, and participating in this fair, if I do well, might just Let There Be A Christmas After All.
Since it's my first, and I don't have a "company" established behind this, I'm kind of at loose ends. I'm looking for ideas for creative price tags and packaging - something really eyecatching - my stuff is really... uh, eclectic, so I'm looking for something similar.
For those of you who have participated in this kind of thing before, what sort of things generally sell best? I hear that record bowls generally do fairly well. People who see them generally have a good response to my marble hair pins, so I'll probably throw those in, as well as the obvious marble magnets. What usually sells best? Little things? Big things? Things for the home, or jewellery-type items?
Thanks in advance..
