I was a vendor in a city sponsored, well attended art walk event over the past weekend. I had 2 spaces:
1. A single 6' table in the thick of the highly visited pedestrian area
2. Unmanned display in a room off the main drag
Cost of the first was $33
Cost of the second was $0
Sales from the first $150+ ****
Sales from the second nothing yet, (I haven't picked up my stuff yet).
It was a looooong 16 hours manning the table over the 2 day event, but I enjoy meeting and talking to my customers (otherwise it wouldn't be the right business for me).
Wonderful to feel validated by folks buying your crafts. I sold some of everything: bracelets, fancy earrings, casual earrings, men's jewelry, photo albums (like the little one shown in the left column), cross stitched cards, pressed flower cards.
Pooped but satisfied.
