I have been doing craft shows the last couple of weeks and thought I would share what has been selling. The shows I do have a central check out and I work the cash register so I get to see what all the crafters are selling.

The best seller is food of course, candy, cakes and cupcakes. Then the little items under $5 the toppers with cute sayings are really good sellers and they will pay for your table space. Anything painted sold very well.

What I sold 2 shows I sold the red wine glasses the last couple of shows did not sell any.
Popcorn snowmen sold the sports ones sold the best. Small bag toppers you can get the toppers from Craftyannie, Orginazed Christmas, I have purchased several from sunflower friends.

I hope that this helps with anyone going to do shows.

Thank you for your report. That's pretty much what is selling were I go. The food/fudge etc. is always the best seller than the bags of candy with the toppers are a big hit!
