This year, I initially thought I wasn't going to do any craft shows. With the job, I'm working just about every weekend, I didn't think it was wise booking weekends off. Losing guaranteed money, for potentially making money at a craft show didn't seem like a good idea. Well, things changed! There were a couple shows that I stumbled across, that worked out perfectly with my work schedule!
The first one is the September Sale-A-Bration, in Cottam, Ontario. I just found this one on Facebook the other day. It's next Saturday, September 22 from 9:00-2:00 at Ridgeview Pavilion 124 Fox St, Cottam, Ont.
The second show is the Kingsville Migration Festival. I did this two day sale last year, and did alright. I initially said I wouldn't do it again, but I am going to give it another shot. It is Saturday and Sunday, October 20+21, from 10:00-4:00 both days, at Kingsville District High School, 170 Main St. E, Kingsville Ont.
I hope anyone who is local can make it out!

Good luck with these! I might try setting up at a local craft fair in November. Any tips?
ReplyDeleteBring a chair! that is an important one for me.
DeleteAnd price everything. it doesn't matter if you have 15 of the same thing, price all of them. because without fail, people will pick up the ONE that isn't priced every time, and ask what it costs. either that, or have signs that say "item ABC $XX" for every item you do. i can't do the latter, because everything is different.
