I had my first ever craft show Sunday! My friend Amy, ASR DeZingns at http://asrdezigns.blogspot.com/, and I went together for backup support plus I offer embroidery on-site for many of her items. We are counting it as a learning experience and that is primarily why we went. We sold alomost nothing due to the fact that about 20 people showed up throughout the course of the day. We knew that it was going to have a poor showing when we decided to attend, but seeing that it was our first time out, we decide to see it through. The reason was that we could make all of our mistakes at this slow craft show so that we would be better prepared for the bigger ones. We have another craft show again this Saturday at Bath. I heard that it is expected to be a good one. They have been doing it for years and always have a full venue and plenty of traffic. We are not yet considered "seasoned", but at least we aren't going to look like total idiots when we get there.
