Call for Craft Fair Suggestions

I shall be running a series about Arts and Craft Fairs and would like my readers’ participation, too.  I was involved in craft fairs when I operated a quiltmaking business.  I’ve also had booths and signings for my books.  My daughter has participated in gallery showings and openings of her fabric art.

There are many do’s and don’t for arts and craft fairs.  There’s no sure fire solution for success because you’ll usually have many variables.  However, there are some guidelines or suggestions that help you gain success and sales.

• What have you found that works and doesn’t work? 
• Do you do many craft fairs?
• At which type do you have the most success?
• What is your art or craft work that you promote at craft fairs?
• Do you find fairs valuable for future sales?

Those are just a few questions to guide you in sending me suggestions.
