My Craft Fair Booth

This year when our MOPS group was finalizing plans for our annual craft fair, I decided to try my hand at having a booth. In the past I have put together little kits for Moms to buy and make crafts with their kids. These have been pretty popular but they don't have a huge profit margin. So, I decided to make a few of all of the things I love and just see what would sell. My expectations are pretty low so I don't think I'll be disappointed :-) My greatest hope for this Saturday is that I will have a fantastic day at a craft fair next to a fabulous friend who has helped me immensely to get me to this point. I am so glad to have had her help!! So, if you are in Rapid City this weekend, stop by and see our craft fair (and buy something from me)! We will be at the Minneluzahan Senior Center from 8 to 2 on November 12th! (And if you won't be here - I take email orders ;-) ) So, here are few pictures for those of you who like crafty things. The booth layout pictures are first, followed by some of my favorite things.Beaded Spoons
Stretchy Headbands that go well with the Flower Barrettes
Flower Barrettes and Flower HeadbandsBent Spoons that can be used as business card holders, picture holders, or even cell phone holders
Towel Hangers - Crocheted rings that neatly hold the kitchen towel that you already have.Scarf Holders - These are my own invention that I came up with to hold all of the girls winter scarves in our coat closet :-)Kitchen TowelsA cute little purse made out of a baby dressPicture Frame Earring Holders (I don't have any earrings to show you how they work - oops!)Snowman Candy Bars - They come in 5 varieties: Hershey's, Hershey's w/Almonds, Reese's, Mr. Goodbar, and Snickers. If they don't sell one you may just get one from me this year!
Kid's Craft KitsFlower DishclothsI didn't have a picture of the fuzzy flip-flops currently on my camera (other than the layout picture) but they are really cute, too! Seriously, if you know anyone that would love to come to a craft fair (and bake sale) send them our way, this Saturday! Thanks for looking at all my pictures :-)

  1. You have quite the selection which I think is great for your first show. You never know what people are gonna want to buy! And thanks for the kudos. I have enjoyed helping you get ready. :-)

  2. Oh my gosh, you're the craft fair queen! Love it all! Lots of comments. First, where did you get that wire rack thingy? I need one. Love, love, love the dress-turned-purse, the candy bar snowmen, and the flower head bands. A lady at our craft fair sells a TON of those head bands/flowers so I bet they'll sell well for you. And how did you make your super cute earring holders? They remind me of the fabric covered cork boards I've been working on. Everything looks SUPER! Can't wait to hear how it goes!!
