Please wish me luck.

I am leaving in an hour to do a huge craft show. It is *very* upscale. I had to submit photos of my products along with my application, then wait to be approved. but this could be a make or break show. Like most new home based businesses, I am running in the red.
The town is very "swankified" (to qoute Fiero in Wicked :D ). These people have lots of disposable income, sooo, *fingers and toes crossed*

I am a bit nervous too. Many of the other exhibitors are juried crafters, and me-- I am small peanuts compared to that.

The show is also for two days, So I am not even going to make it home, I am staying at my inlaws tonight.

I hope I do good!!!

[FaerieGothMommy]

You guys all rock- I swear, you helped so much inthe luck dept. I did awesome! I sold $250 woth of stuff!!!! Woo hooo!!
I sold out of several items, I couldn't keep the shea butters at all-- I ended up selling a lot to the other vendors too LOL!
A lot of people took brochures and seemed interested in the Open House I am having in *gasp* less then two weeks.
It was a long weekend, two days is a lot. But I had awesome crafters near me, laughed a lot, met some great people, traded ideas with the crafters.... and now have some ideas for new products. Gods I am so addicted to making stuff. :lol: I guess that is good, because now I have to replenish my inventory for the next two shows!

Thanks again for all of your good thoughts!

Thank you all again.
I have been a bust aromatherpist, made some more soaps, shea butters, working on lotions today...plus getting my house cleaned and my carpets steamed.
:collapse:

And I can't forget that dratty paperwork. Why do I need to keep track of sales and expenses? Can't I do this just for fun, MR. IRS Man? :p

[Cinnamon Girl]

Congratulations, Chryssi! :hugz:

I have been meaning to look into shows such as these, but I confess to being a bit intimidated. Plus the ones I have looked at seem to have such high booth fees! :(

[mol]

You rock, girl! Thats awesome!

[Old Witch]

Wow!! You go girl!!!
