|  First Craft Show Jitters Well, tomorrow is the day. Got my 'booth' all set up. I didn't have all that much inventory but went for it anyway. As it turned out, my stuff filled the table top and the vertical stand I made. As I was getting ready to leave, someone (church member or vendor, don't know) bought one of the smaller pieces. Hope that's a good sign and not the ONLY sign! Pic shows my set up... Wish me luck!

| Good Luck Mike! Nothing to be nervous about except maybe selling everything. My table top ornament tree has grown into a 6' floor model with about 100 ornaments on it.

 |  Photo portfolio I just thought of something. Bring along a portfolio of some of your work that you didn't bring along with you. You may not have a lot with you, but if they have something to look through you may get more orders.

| I have an idea that once people see the portrait of the little girl, you'll be getting some special orders. Good luck and have fun. |

| Suggestion Mike, just a quick suggestion. If you have a medium to dark blue table cloth or even a black one it will help you work stand out on the table. You could also put a couple different size boxes under the table cloth to give it a tier look. GOOD LUCK. |

| Hi Mike, good luck at the show. I do agree with putting a dark solid color table cloth. I know that it made a world of difference on my display. One thing that did make a big difference for me was to put my custom portraits and photos right out in front. I was getting a lot of people just walking by but those portraits caught their eye and they would stop and look. Again Good Luck, Steve
