Fire and Ice Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 This Saturday. I did this show year before last, when it was a two day show, and did very well but I didn't do it last year because they cut the show down to one day but kept the same table fees in place! But this year they called because the only candle people they have is Golden Canyon and I feel that it is good for me to go in and compete again the "Big Boys!" I've done it with Golden Canyon and Home Interior and I want the public to get a reality lesson on quality and prices.Wish me luck!Fire The show was okay but not great however the HI lady never even showed. Did 5Xs my booth fee which is okay but not great. The organizer didn't advertise very much so the crowd was slim but I outsold everybody else, which was good. The clamshells were the stars! Everybody loved them even though didn'd have most of the florals not many of the bake goods done. Big seller was Blackberry both in candles and in clamshells. After enough of us complained, they are going back to a two day show in mid November. And the booth frees are the same! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southernscents Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 Good luck to you. I have never bought that brand of candles, but I have a former customer of theirs. She used to buy theirs and then bought one of mine and tried it and loves it. I have seen a catalog and their prices are high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 Congrats on your success!! Heck of a deal to get a two-day show for the price of one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fire and Ice Posted October 30, 2005 Author Share Posted October 30, 2005 Thanks Robin. Yeah, she came back because I wasn't there last year and she sold a whooping 4 candles last year. I don't think she sold any this year though. She did come over to checkout the clamshells though. Thought they were interesting but didn't buy anything. We chatted though. I like being friendly with ALL of the crafters, compitition included. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
