My hubby and I were in a craft show at a local church last Saturday and it went fairly well. My DH does scroll saw items and I of course, had my cards. We did ok - people would admire his work, which he does a great job on, but I told him, he should lower the prices - but I can't seem to make him realize that "people don't care how much time it takes" but what do I know!!! I sold quite a few cards, but what surprised me, I only sold a couple Xmas ones. The lady across from us seemed to always have a lot of people around her tables, so I went over and she had lots of items that were under $1. They were nice stocking stuffers and priced low. Another lady had hand-made purses which were lovely, but don't think she sold too many. Oh well, it was a nice time to meet new people and talk with them so the day was not a loss.

Glad that you did well at your show. The little items under $2 do seem to sell well at the shows.
