Ok, enough of the drama. My arm is fine (thank you for the nice comments-) and I enjoyed a lovely weekend away from the computer. We spent Saturday at my son’s wrestling finals and Sunday I turned my dining room into a craft show display.
I pulled out the pieces I worked on over the summer to add price tags to. Then I modified a consignment-store-petticoat-skirt into a much shorter piece for my dress form and with the fabric leftovers, made another one for the mini dress form that was made from a paper-maché craft store form, cheap desk-lamp base and Mod Podge’d pages. The larger form will display the rosette pins I finished up yesterday and the smaller form -the vintage pins and brooches I’ll also be selling. (See the other deer-head cufflink on the little dress-form skirt that came from THIS pair? I made a pin with a green mount!)
I price-tagged everything, including the little bottles of winter and Christmas. Now the hardest part…coming up with actual prices for everything!
As soon as I can get a 6′ x 30″ stand-in table, I’ll work on a table covering. In the meantime, I’m stressing over prices, should I sign up with ProPay to accept credit cards, are craft fairs worth it, will I become addicted to selling at them, will I be coming home with more than I left with , and the list goes on.
Any advice is welcome! Happy Monday.
