Well, I survived! I had a great time at the show, sold LOTS of hand dyed silk scarves – like 70! So many that after selling all day Saturday I went home & died 22 more that night – luckily the Sunday show doesn’t start til 11:30 AM – I was ironing scarves in my pjs til 11 AM! I actually was really worried about how stuff would sell in this economy, so I bought a less expensive blank (5mm habotai silk) to sell along with my more expensive scarves – this was a great idea, not only did some people gravitate to the scarf for the lower price, but it has a wonderful airy, flowy texture, so this one will remain in my repertoire!
I also sold all the grab n’gos and a few of the smaller bags, so again, the lower price point stuff was the attractive stuff. But, I was happy & exhausted at the end of it all! Phew!
On to the next!
Congratulations on a successful show, Candy! Any chance you might be placing your extra items (like the notelets) on Etsy?
Hugs,
Shari
Thanks! Yes I will be posting my notelets on etsy…I’ll probably photograph each one this afternoon and get them up later today.
