139 - Craft Show Report

Santa's happiest elf #craftshow #lamps #ornaments #tree

My setup for today - tiny table, tiny setup #lamps #ornaments #craftshow

The little Tuesday Craft Show I did yesterday was very nice, and I really couldn't beat the price of a table - FREE! Put on by the same guy who does the Oddmall events, this was aimed at being a "little slice" of Oddmall for the tenants of an Assisted Senior living home, where the median age of residents was around 86 years old.

I sold three of my new ornaments and got to try out some new display options, had a real good time :)

The biggest lesson I learned is that my ornaments are going to be a HUGE seller at Oddmall on the 19th and 20th, but I still need to find a really good way to display them :/ The little tree I used was *good*, but was barely room for the 14 ornaments I brought - and I intend to have about a HUNDRED ornaments by the time Oddmall gets here! So I really have no idea how I'm going to display all those ornaments... bigger tree? Maybe a clothesline set-up... Hmmmm...

I love the ornaments. I think it would be lovely to have a tree covered with them. Maybe you can find a Christmas tree at Goodwill? Or, I've noticed Michael's and Hobby Lobby advertising some cheaper ones.

It's a shame we aren't closer because I am swimming in fake trees at this point and they would all be clamoring to be decked out in your ornaments.

Well I'll be sure to put a link to my Etsy shop come Thanksgiving weekend, I'm sure we can get some awesome on your trees ;)
