Welp, my first show of the season is tomorrow morning and I'm so very nervous! My hubby can't be with me for support other than to help me set up, then he'll leave to babysit our son. I'll be on my own with no help (ugh). So I hope nothing goes wrong. I understand though, our son is only 7 and autistic, so can't be expected to sit around with nothing to entertain him for several hours on a hot day.
Good news is that the local Chamber (where the show is being held) called me the other day and asked for a nice basket of several of my soaps and sundries for an advertising display that they were doing on the local news. It was good advertising for me so I hope the turnout will be good and I definitely hope I sell something. There's a huge ball game going on across the road, so they're expecting at least 800 people just from that, so we'll see.
I just hope I remember to bring everything, and that I'm not forgetting anything. I have a list and am sticking to it. All that's left is for me to buy a small cooler to keep some bottled water in since I don't want to spend my far-few-funds on the food vendors lol. I'll take some pics of my setup tomorrow and I'll post them when I get home from the show tomorrow night sometime. I would love you seasoned craft showers to give me your honest opinions on how it looks and what I could do to improve and gather more customer attention. Wish me luck!
