Craft Fair Day......

[Sterling]

It's been a very busy few days and now this morning I've finally gotten a chance to sit down and post my craft fair pictures and catch up on the forum. I can't believe it's been 3 days since I've been able to do that!

The Craft Fair day started out beautiful...seasonable but dark! Doors opened just before 6:00 for set up. As usual we had a wonderful time with hubby, Mom and my sister there to help. Sales were good .......for all you soapers out there wondering about that.......and people gravitated towards the Fall Leaves soaps which were pretty cool. They also loved the themed soaps such as the dogs, cats and horses. The Bath salts did'nt sell as well....maybe not many people take baths, but showers? I don't know

................

But all in all it was a wonderful day and we enjoyed just being out there and socializing and chit-chatting.

Here are a few pictures for you to enjoy. Next year I plan to have a different set-up for my table...I want more wood and depth to it.

Your booth looks very nice. I would gravitate towards the fall leaves soaps as well.

I also love your pawprint Christmas stocking.

I'm glad that you had a wonderful day.

(don't tell anyone, but I haven't had a bath for years.

Showers are my thing)

Very nice. I love how you used the baskets and easels for display. And I especially love the stuffed horse ornaments!!

Thanks for posting. It looked wonderful!

I love your set up, very eye appealing! Can you email me I love those stuffed little horses. I want to get a few and scent them and hang them in our trucks. Checked out your website I am going to need some of your snowflake soaps too. Thanks. Denise

Hi Dale--the Paw Prints stockings were a hit too. They were so much fun to do up...but a little more time consuming than I had imagined. I'm with you....I'm a shower type of gal myself!

Charley...thank you! BTW...I love your "Cowboy Blessing" in your signature line!

Denise and LVponies...thank you ladies!

I guess since it's my display I was a little more critical about how I displayed everything and did'nt know if the baskets would work and be pleasing to the eye. But it sure held everything nicely. Plus they were light enough to carry to and from the fair.

Sterling your set up looked great and I love your little stuffed horses, they are so cute. What I want to know is how you got the black on the pawprint soaps? They look fabulous. I am glad you had a good sale, I am looking forward to mine on the 17th.

Take care

Yvonne

Thanks Yvonne! I have to give credit to Mom for the little stuffed mini horses.....they were one of her many crafts this year.

For the soap paw prints I used soap paint. It's a bit tricky, but it does work. Those were a hit too! It was cool to see and chat with the people who wanted them...one was getting them for her sister who was a Veterinarian. How cool was that!?!! Please let us know how you make out on the 17th!! Oh and pictures...plenty of pictures too!

I'm gettin' me some little ponies!!

You should see the adorable patterns. They are going to make great gifts, thats if I can part with them.

Such a nice setup and pretty items!!

 

[Jenn]

Gorgeous! I love seeing all you guys' soaping stuff. Just not enough time to try it myself!

 

[bluetaterbaby]

Great Job! Beautiful display of items! I'm so glad you had fun and made money from all the hard work and time you put into it.

God bless,

Joan

Awesome display!!!!!! That is what I hate about booths....I'm never very good at making the booth look good and enhance my product

Oh well!! One of these days I'll learn something!!!

Thanks again ladies!! Mom will be tickled when I tell her you all liked her little mini horses!!

Kathryn--I have a display in my mind's eye now for next year. I hope it'll look as nice as how I imagine it. I was kinda under the weather the weekend, so I did'nt really put a lot of thought into my table....I usually like to plan ahead and really get into that part of it. I think this year was a bit simple.
