Hi everyone i am new to this site and i did my first craft fair yesterday!! all i can say is it needed better organising!!!(the fair that is!!) My mums church did a craft fair and i had a joint stall with my sister i do jewellery and she does cards. Their were 5 card stalls in all and 3 jewellery, so earnings were not high. However it gave me some insightful experience and i got good feedback. I have trawled all the directories for local craft fairs and i just dont seem to see any near me without having to travel miles!!! I live in Heysham in Morecambe and dont seem to get any in morecambe lancaster area and others close to home i have a disabled son and finding care and trying to do the stalll is hard, and the one i did yesterday which is organised by my mums church is only once a year, people seemed reluctant to part with their money and wanted low quality cheap jewellery, i scream with exasperation!! i try to give a good price with quality but my quality pieces just did not sell at all, and i mainly sold earings, necklaces and magnetic hematite. Still as i said it gave me experience, any comments would be appreciated as well as hints and tips.
