A recap of Studs and Duds at a 2024 Christmas Craft Fair!

[@beverleywatson5906]

Love your items. I am working on learning Canva A few years ago I made bookmarks with elastic and they were a fabulous stud. I haven't done a craft fair in about 5 years but plan on doing one or two this year Good luck at your next craft fair

Showing support for a fellow crafter and KZbinr it’s a struggle but keep it up! Just keep doing what brings you joy!

These types of videos are just so helpful. Please let us know what area of the country you sell at, and as previously stated, your price points if possible. Best of luck, looking forward to your other videos.

You never know. I made about 80 gift bags. The first show, I sold out of what I brought. The next 2, I sold 4 of them. The last show, I brought all the ones I had left and, I sold out. I loved the tea stained journal. Surprised those didn’t do well.

Could you do a tutorial on your magnetic bookmarks?

[@francesbradley9915]

The mini composition books will do better with child geared papers maybe. They did for me.

Your items were really cute. Don't get discouraged crafts shows were not good this year for a lot of people. If it wasn't for my dollar's item, i wouldn't have made any money. I also make paper crafts and my notebook journals did not do good either. I've been doing craft shows for 31 years and have had ups and downs, too. I've done paper craft for the last 15 years. Im still here for a few years, at least, lol. Good luck next year. ❤❤❤

Don’t be discouraged! What didn’t sell today might sell tomorrow you just never know what can be packed away for your next show just pack up also your ribbon bookmarks were cute maybe just tack them on a piece of card stock individually wrapped to display- for any candy you have (candy boxes were adorable) just check the expiration date maybe you can use in a spring craft fair-craft fairs are like roller coasters!

I bought a pack of mini notebooks at a thrift store, 21 for $3. I covered them with printed cardstock and got mini pens in a variety of colors to match the paper. I also packaged them in cellophane bags and put a bag topper on it. Ended up selling half of them. I think how you present and package your product makes a difference. One lady bought 6 for gifts. Another lady actually bought 2 for the pens, which was fine with me!

I found your video helpful but it would be even more so if you told us how much your items sold for.

[@wh878]

Yes I would love to know prices as well!

A helpful idea...Add the price you put on your products, the same as Lyric Lover. That way viewers can see if the possibility for "studs and duds" might be based on pricing.
