My 1st Craft Show
So last weekend I had my first craft show featuring my KawaiiFrenzy handmade products. It was at a elementary school. I had to be there pretty early to set up like at 9 A.M. At first I was so worried because it started to rain like at 5 AM and thundering and lightning alot.
It all worked out though because by 9 A.M the weather cleared up and it was a beautiful day.
UNTIL …. DUN DUN DUN I actually got there lol … it turns out it was more of a yard sale then a craft show.
Here are a few pics from my day. I didnt even have my banners or business cards yet, so I tried to work with what I had. My display is nothing like it will be now that I have more of my displays and signage ready, the next “ACTUAL SHOW” will be amazing hopefully
Here is my booth space
My bow holder below kept falling over the whole day because of the wind I gotta figure out how to stop it from doing that.
Look how far away we were from the event lol it was no wonder not too many people walked over
overall everybody loved my stuff and I got great feedback I made my booth fee back plus a *tiny profit. I mean only like 30 people took the long walk over so I guess that was too be expected. I actually sold alot of pins to boys which I didnt expect since most of the stuff was for girls but I did sell just about all the stuff I had for boys so next time I know I’ll make more stuff for them as well.
It was so funny one boy yelled out after looking through the tables “hold up a second why is everything pink and girly in here you have anything for boys” lol he was really appalled lol but I helped him find a few pins and he seemed happy with that.
I took this more of as a learning experience , I probably wont be doing alot of other school events unless I know for sure its a craft show and not a yard sale type of event.
I actually have another show tomorrow but I dont know if Im going because again the forecast says rain but this time it says all day so I dont know if Im going or not yet.
