barncat Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 It's been about 3 years since I did a spring craft show. I like sticking to fall & Winter. So I got into one last minute coming up this w/e. Decided to take 2 spaces. So now I'm busting my butt to get some spring stuff ready. Did some Cuc Melon, Blackberry, Strawberry, Lemon, Lavender and I cannot think what else to make. I'm not taking any jars, except some FPV. Maybe some nice spring combos...been wanting to experiment a little bit. Hope it goes well, its about 45 min from me, and I hearsd the winter show is REALLy good and hard to get into, so if its that good spring should be good right> Unfirtunately, they are calling for rain. Why couldnt it be like today? 50 and sunny!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 Good luck at your show! I had one last weekend and it rained! Here's hoping it stays nice and dry for yours!!Your florals should do well. I had folks asking for rose and lilac scents if that helps any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinetreecandles Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 I have done one show in the spring every year for the past 3 years and Honeysuckle, Peach, and Kiwi Raspberry have been the top sellers for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coconut Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 Things have been a little slow for me but so far my top request is Lilac also. Good luck with your show! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

islandgirl Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 Barncat... How was the show???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barncat Posted March 19, 2008 Author Share Posted March 19, 2008 It sucked!! There were 2 candle makers behind me, I know one didn't sell a thing, I don't think the other did either. Wooden roses were next to me (handmade my a$$). All in all I sold $275.. All the vendors I talked to were there for the first time...WTH? Oh...and I travel all that way...for someone from my hometown to come and drop $100...hello? Biggest seller was...blueberry...who would have thought??Well, i won't be doing that show again. you couldnt even read the sign on the road, they kept putting the dates on top of each other and looked about 20 yrs old. But, I just set-up at a co-op place in Lancaster...so hopefully it will go well, their big open house is tomorrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
