Craft fairs

Published by kdarrell under crafts, income, selling Edit This

Last May I had no choice but to quit my outside job due to babysitter issues. Because I lost a paycheck I started thinking of ways in which I could earn a little extra income working from home. One of the ways I decided that I would like to try was to try to start selling home made crafts. I figured since I enjoyed creating so much that I could maybe turn my hobby into a job.

Well I have to say that so far this hasn’t gone the way I would have liked. I did set up a website and have received a few sales through this, but not as many as I would like. So my next method that I’m going to try is to sell my creations at different craft fairs. So far I have two fairs that I’m going to attend this summer. So I guess I will see how these go.

Has anyone here ever participated in craft fairs? If you have, could you please tell me about your experience with them. I would love to hear the good as well as the bad.
