First show ever
A Christmas parade show in Watertown, NY. I sold baby bibs and pillows!
What are the best things about art fairs
You get to see the public's reaction to your work. Sometimes the reaction is not what you hope for, but when it's good, it's so very, very good.
Best show ever and why
ACWC Art and Craft Fair at Letchworth State Park (NY). Why? I made $7000 in 3 days. Great customers, wonderful staff, nice location.
Worst show ever and why
Skippack PA. I was next to the gel candle guy, and no one would even look at my booth, they were so enamored with his product. He sold his stuff like Billy Mays. Or the Shticky guy. I sold $200 and paid $90 to be there. Nice promoter, but weird crowd.
