Craft Fair Series 2019- Recap of the 1st 35 Craft Fair Ideas-Pricing and what will I sell!? 🌸🌸🌸

[@paulakay4109]

I’m 50 years old and write like a kid! 😁That’s because I’m still a kid at heart. You’re writing is great and so is your video. Thank you!

[@CraftyCraftsByDeanna]

I’m a kid at heart also!

[@denisesavage8865]

Deanna! First of all let me say you have beautiful handwriting!! You are an amazing crafter and are a very generous person to share all of your ideas with us. I am from Indiana and I retired in 2016. I was an interior designer for over 25 years and I love to sew and craft so I thought I would try my hand at craft fairs this year. I know things sell for different prices depending on where in the country you live; however, I am using your prices as a guideline. Thank you for sharing your crafty life with us. You are loved ♥

[@CraftyCraftsByDeanna]

Denise Savage aww thank you and you will do well at your fair!

[@ptcreations8947]

You have lovely handwriting. I dint understand people.... love this craft fair "series". Its given me so many ideas! Especially for Christmas gifts!

[@greenbean3118]

The post it note holder is my absolute favorite! I love those so much! I’d definitely snatch one up!

[@CraftyCraftsByDeanna]

Thank you

[@danaanthereal3687]

Your items are absolutely adorable. I don't know what geographical location you are selling in, or what the market will normally bear where you are, but in my opinion you are greatly underselling yourself! You need to consider your time and your craftmanship, the items are so lovely!

[@jw3280]

it is better to sale than to pack them up.......is my theory

[@carolem.9009]

On the travelers notebook kits..I think that's a unique idea to keep them in the clear take out box. You can see everything and it just looks so different. I think the pizza box nugget packs looks cute in the box but you can always cut out an oval and put a piece of acetate over it so you can see inside. The packaging on the hand sanitizers is adorable. Love the tote bag but honestly...all that work and people just won't buy a bag I have found. That's why stopped making sew type items for craft shows. It could just be my area that they just don't sell, who knows. I wish you luck with those and hope you sell them all. Shopping bags etc are so cheap these days. I've seen the minke baby blanket with a teething ring attached and a rattle of some sort. I like the idea of the kcup with a mug and some cookies..good idea. Pricing is on point with all of these things. I can't believe you've so many great ideas ! You are so good at what you do !!

[@evhage]

I love the clear take out box idea.

[@katurahb]

Please please please don’t ever apologize to these mean spirited people for what or how you do anything! So what you may not have the nicest handwriting....who cares. You have a beautiful creative spirit. Shine! ❤️

[@dawnbecker8643]

Don’t forget to add your time in factoring the cost of the item. You time is worth something!! TFS

[@marymccloskey9450]

Some people can’t help themselves from being jerks. Your handwriting is clear. Thanks for showing information on doing fairs. 🌸

[@marss9504]

Awesome crafts! Love your beautiful handwriting! thanks for Sharing!

[@lrhardwick]

I want to thank you for all the the great ideas and for sharing your talents daily. I really enjoy watching you.

[@kathiehayes865]

Wow! You really worked hard putting all your sale items together. I’m impressed. Thanks for sharing.

[@diannerippon7349]

Amazing array of ideas. Thank you for sharing. Well done.

[@nickibair999]

Great ideas 🎉 Thanks for sharing ❤

[@yolandahuysamen14]

Thank you so much for sharing!!! I am getting ready for a Craft Market in November and had no idea for pricing, your video is an answer to prayer. Blessings

[@CraftyCraftsByDeanna]

Good luck! You will do awesome!

[@mizmaxeen]

I absolutely love your idea for the k-cup gift basket. Maybe a cute saying on a dollar tree cup. I wish I lived close, would definitely come to your craft fair

[@sheittaspence4817]

Hi I would like to buy two of your notebooks 2 for 5 . I like to scrible things down all the time and maybe we could do marketing or something .Thanks I enjoyed [e-mail]. nice vedio.

[@crochetfun7202]

Post it notes with elastic closure, great idea, keeps every thing tidy, should be a good seller, Your Hand writing is FIND, who ever said their was a TEST ON HAND WRITTING.

[@liddiabeeman9597]

I love all of your videos! This recap is great. I an going to rewatch several

[@CraftyCraftsByDeanna]

Thank you

[@nikkimuniz3473]

i love the chocolate nuggets in the long strip, so you can see all of them and maybe find something else for the pizza box. 😉😉

[@armandcilche8048]

Thank you so much for sharing your gift with all of us. I am a crafter and now really starting to take the craft fair scene seriously. Thank you for being a great inspiration to me. Barbara

[@annaguzzo4179]

Thanks for sharing! It is normal that everyone makes his own prices. Can't wait for your next video

[@jeannethomas6965]

You are super talented Deanna. You have so many great ideas. Thank you so much . I love your handwriting cos I write just like it!!

[@cynthiasaulter8823]

I love your crafts. I don't do paper crafts but I love your craftsmanship! I am interested in the key chains, k cups, and gift baskets. I love to see wood crafts, paintings, bows, and glassware. I can't wait to see your crafting video's!

[@pattyd3205]

Your writing is beautiful, shows an "artistic" flare. I love the fact you give an individual price and slightly cheaper for 2 or more of any of your items. Your Notebooks I would pop elastic round them like your Post it Notes. What a lovely selection of goodies so far. Patricia x

[@CraftyCraftsByDeanna]

Patricia Duffy thank you friend

[@RoseD2016]

I love everything you create. Loved all these videos. Key chains i would say $5.00 . All others you are spot on. Not overpricing is how you will sell out your items quickly. Good luck on your subbies going up. You deserve it . I find your videos so informative and always giving us ideas as to what to sell. Your ideas are great selling items. Can’t wait to see #36. Thank you for sharing them with us. 😍

[@CraftyCraftsByDeanna]

Rosie D thank you Rosie!

[@valeriekirk4380]

Thank you so much for your channel. You are very creative. Love how you break down your costs and explain where you got the materials. Appreciate you sharing your fantastic ideas.

[@oceandreamer1958]

I really don’t understand people being so hateful criticizing your handwriting, or even your items or people’s videos. If you don’t like something, move on! Nobody says you have to watch...move on! Great ideas and prices. I love your creativity and enthusiasm! Be you! Don’t listen to negativity. Good luck at your craft fairs!

[@aidamartinez5282]

I feel you are good with Prices some people just see $$$ me I enjoy selling making, giving and see people Happy with their purchase.. 🥰

[@BagLadyStaCJ]

It just Amazes me how ignorant and rude people can be! Thanks for your advice and for sharing what you have made and suggested prices. This was helpful....and I am inspired by your ideas! Be blessed!!

[@2281CozyBrickCape]

Wow! A lot of different items. I love all of them and thank you for the ideas for pricing. You’re so creative, Deanna!

[@CraftyCraftsByDeanna]

Thank you

[@catianalugo7912]

Thanks for sharing! And nooo I think the prizes are just right. Lot of good ideas, love it.

[@cynthiacalvert5626]

People who are miserable will always try to bring down whoever they can...ignore them!!!

[@Yasha4life]

I absolutely love Auntie D…….!

[@giftdiva8506]

Deanna, you’re my craft fair hero!!! I’m constantly amazed at how many ideas and projects you manage to complete by craft fair season! I only do one, maybe two shows per year and I’m NEVER ready when it comes. You keep me motivated! Thank you for sharing!! I’m committed to doing a better job this year! Thanks for the inspiration!

[@CraftyCraftsByDeanna]

[@reneshay889]

Really? Your penmanship is readable, neat, and lovely!!

[@owlmakeitcrafts267]

This is a great video Deanna! Your pricing is fair very reasonable. Videos like this help us newbies more than you know. Big THANK YOU for that😊. Hugs!💕💕

[@paulmoosman8594]

Thank you for sharing your ideas!

[@TheSuzyfick]

Great ideas, good luck on your craftfair.

[@mariaserpa-gauvin8405]

Love your ideas. Your prices are interesting ... you need to charge enough for your supplies and make some money. I very much enjoy watching you. You are thoughtful and generous of spirit. I wish you much success at your craft fairs. Can’t wait to see more of your ideas! I am making the MFT lip balms to put in gift bags for a scrapbooking day to raise money for cancer research. I thought it would be not so bad ... but just costing the pouches and lip balms and using the paper that I have and adding the tape has added up. I’m not counting the cost of the MFT dies. So far my cost is over $2.50 for each one. I do hope the participants like them. I’m making 90 of them!

[@CraftyCraftsByDeanna]

Maria Serpa-Gauvin oh wow! Your making a lot! I have never made anything like that! Good luck!

[@mycraftysides9605]

Wow.. everything you made for the craft fair is so pretty and very well done. Thanks for sharing your creations and always inspiring us. Blessings

[@haaniemd]

Great crafty items and even greater handwriting!

[@CandCbyPegi]

Whoever made the handwriting comment needs to pay more attention to their life rather than those of other people.

[@NonnaBethsCrafts2Be]

I agree she is showing us about the crafts not how to write. Deanna don't apologize we Love you and thank you for the time you put in these videos

[@mariam3947]

Sweet, very neat writing. Organization is key!

[@Lyn4817]

I personally found that comment about her writing, extremely rude and uncalled for.

[@nickibair999]

I agree!! Your writing is just fine. Besides if it's scribble for your eyes while keeping track of stuff then no one should pass judgement. The crafts are so cute. I definitely would love to have any of them

[@dianemacqueen5419]

“What Susie says about Sally says more about Susie than Sally”

[@tracybell2186]

Seeing people comment on the negative things someone said about your handwriting is one of the very reasons why I stopped using social media. The whole concept is supposed to be centered on being social, but somewhere along the way people decided to use it as a platform to spout negativity. How petty and small are you that you would even think of a comment about something as subjective as someone’s handwriting. Creativity is subjective and this young lady is gifted with a blessing that maybe some are just jealous of!

[@susanvanschuyver7900]

You have great, clear penmanship! I love it.

[@CraftyCraftsByDeanna]

Thank you

[@michellreed4304]

Absolutely love the tote bags!

[@WeddingOfficiantTraceyJensen]

I LOVE THIS VIDEO! ONE OF THE BEST I've seen! Soooo many ideas! Are each of the projects on a specific video? I have a few questions. 1. On that last item you showed, number 35, I could not hear what you called it or what it is for. 2. Is there a video for the bead and tassel project? 3. Did you find your small shadowbox with lotion? 4. The 1st item you showed was the ribbon ring wand. WHAT on earth do folks use these for? Simply decorations? 5. Last specific question...lol. Did you say "Policy envelopes?". What are they used for? -did you MAKE your boxes for packaging or but them? THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO! REALLY! I'm thinking of getting into some craft fairs and this sure helps!!!!

[@sharondorr5]

Such great ideas. Love it! TFS

[@katieshepherd5864]

Can you share your set up at your craft fair? Maybe give us some tips on doing a fair.

[@cynthialeyva5122]

All your items are wonderful. I loved the notebook you were using. You don’t need to apologize for unkind remarks anyone makes.

[@marilynblum8106]

Hello dear your talent is wonderful ,people are haters I mean the one who said your writing is like a child. I love all that you do ,your crafts are beautiful, love the colors and they are well done sincerly please dont listen to the negative because I am a crafter and good at what I do I can see you are good at what you do so dont listen to negative comments I enjoy everything sincerely

[@CraftyCraftsByDeanna]

Keep crafting!! Do it bc you enjoy it!

[@andreamarshall9677]

Thanks for offering all this information, I am planning to do craft fairs when I retire (5 years to go!), and am just trying a few things as of last year at work (I am a teacher), we had a small craft fair in our teachers room, just with folks who work at my school, and do crafting, to sell during lunch time. I made a few things to sell. So I am getting my feet wet very slowly, as a newbie craft fair vendor! I am going to try a few of your ideas for this years fair, which will be in December, same as last year. Thanks again, good luck at your fairs this year!

[@CraftyCraftsByDeanna]

Thank you

[@leeannsutherland858]

I love your handwriting! Neat and easy to read, wish mine looked that good! It’s funny what people will make comments on....not like it is a handwriting video! Very silly person to say the least! Love your ideas! Thanks for sharing! Nice work!

[@kimhubbs1104]

I love your handwriting! Some people are so negative

[@CraftyCraftsByDeanna]

Yes ma’am. It’s ok!

[@dawnr3790]

Looking good Deanna! Can’t wait to hear what sold and what doesn’t! Prices sound good too🙌🏼😍

[@CraftyCraftsByDeanna]

Thank you

[@Angela152half]

There is nothing wrong with your hand writing, it’s neat and legible. I don’t understand why some people have to be so rude.

[@laurifine3368]

I love your handwriting. So pretty. Why do some people have to be so negative? Love all your videos. You are such an inspiration. How many craft fairs do you do a year? I use to do them with the jewelry I make. They are a lot of work. God Bless You!

[@CraftyCraftsByDeanna]

Lauri Fine thank you! I do usually 2 a yr

[@Coffeecup.0110]

I also think your hand writing is lovely.

[@margaretdevries8090]

Deanna, just 2 a year ? Do you sell online or consignment stores .....so much work you put into everything ...... you have a huge variety ! So professional ! I know you put such love and work into everything ! I agree the way you price but some could go up and some down, lots depend on where you sell ? I know my prices were low, but I priced items what I would pay , You are very nice to share what you make and I hope it is worth it for you ... I’d hear oh ! I could do that ! Grr! But when I tell them if you just make one the cost is outrageous! But doing multiples and buying in bulk makes it worth while ...ex...sometimes I’d use 10 + paint colors, Use a credit card reader, it really added many sales and not too expensive .... A must for any crafter? You have to have new stuff at each show, each year ! people always remarked on that, they liked my stall as I always had new stuff, heard so many say as they passed other stalls, it’s the same old same olds ! Just because you sold out an item at one craft show ? Does not mean you would at next one ! It’s not easy to judge ! Also your display has to be inviting , got to draw people in to sell.....just dumping stuff on a table is not appealing , using baskets and other things elevated is eye catching, you can find items to help with your display, even a box covered in nice material and appropriate to what you make , can lift a basket or item at more eye level, took me years to be happy with my display !! In my case I put a cute picture on brown bags With my name and info, and many other crafters said it was not necessary ! But next show many copied my idea and said it was great advertising ! I used them for smaller items, wrapped in tissue paper first I Used NEW PLASTIC BAGS , used business cards, entrance fees for craft shows is overwhelming ! Organizers make the money ! LOL ... I LOVED doing shows, met so many nice people ...but did not make a huge profit, What did I sell?, l painted on wood items, and an assortment of other things, I’d find thrift store items and upsize them, Hubby Made stools, little kid chairs, and cut my wood out, kitchen towel holders with several toppers ie., pig, teapot, cat, cow etc! So many ideas....sorry! I rattled on! But sadly due to health problems we had to stop! I don’t do much crafts anymore, quilt and do scrapbooks ....

[@Karinas_creativelife]

We call grab bags "lucky dip" that such a great idea I might do some to 🤔

First of all thanks for sharing! I write like a little kid! I don't care what others think! They are rude for making a comment like that.

[@michellechristopher6468]

Wow you made a lot to sell and your good TFS 😊. The tag blankets my cousin use to make 😊

[@bubbysbub]

You are completely underselling yourself!! Next craft fair, try upping your prices on a few things, because for that amount of work, you deserve the $$$. Your time is the most valuable thing you put into your work!!

[@carolrobinson9897]

I think your pricing is wonderful! Love all your items. Very cute, love your tutorials ❤️❤️

[@CraftyCraftsByDeanna]

Thank you

[@carolllundy49]

Your writing is lovely. Enjoyed and I think you are selling at great prices. Yes you have to consider where you live. We stay in a small town and not many jobs in this area so when I do sell stuff consider my customers and try to do fair pricing for all to get that is why I am looking for craft fairs. It is not much money to be made in my area.

[@elizabethvallely4044]

Found this video very helpful, my the way nothing wrong with your hand writting!, You are awesome crafter all the things you showed are great and your priceing sound very good!

I cannot believe someone had the audacity to mention your printing or writing. I thought your printing or writing was beautifully neat and uniform. Do you have tutorials for these little items that you sell? Thank you. God bless

[@pristinabread]

The crafts you make are amazing. What surprises me is that you are able to make sales and or profit. Perhaps it's where you are located. I live in a major city and the items you make can be easily gotten at the craft, dollar and target stores. Although those are not as nice, still a big competition when it comes to sales, convenience and attitude of buyers who don't think paying someone for their art is worth it.

[@pristinabread]

Hi Deanna, I personally think you are such a sweetheart and very much enjoy watching your channel!! I don't comment much anymore on people's channels (i need to work on that) because i use to all the time. I sure wouldn't worry about someone talking about your writing hon. I think you do an awesome job on your videos and you explain exactly what you are doing as u do it. Keep up the good work and i'll be watching for #36 Hugs, Connie~

[@pugsandstilettos3369]

Thank you so much for sharing your ideas. Question: how do you handle customers that want to look at every single planners notebook package? Do you open each and every single one for the customer? Or do you just have a general sample one that everyone looks at and can touch. Would love to hear your comment?

[@szelop]

If they saw my writing they would say I write like a chicken! Chicken scratch! Lol! Your writing looks great to me.

Oh my gosh I am so behind on watching your videos. My husband was in the hospital and that really got me behind. I hope to get a few a day watched to get up to date. Love your recapping video, and don't worry about what others say about your writing someone always has to try to put others down some way. Your hand writing is very pretty and all your videos are great. Keep going on with your unique crafts. Thank you for sharing

[@CraftyCraftsByDeanna]

Thank you

[@christinedufer7075]

You should put some stickers or a couple lil cute clips with a decorative something on the end , maybe a couple of saying cards or some kinds of little stuff like that in your traveling notebook .. I know when I shop for a crafty notebook or scheduler the ones that really catch my eye or the ones that have those little cute stickers or fun things that I can use here in there ... just idea

[@mammy7903]

You have so many wonderful ideas.

[@CraftyCraftsByDeanna]

[@kristakefer8551]

From one Texas crafter to another I truly think you make such beautiful things! Also, I grew up in Plano, and now live in Florida and was beyond excited to find out you are in the Dallas area!!!! I am also a new subscriber and was wondering if you have any tutorials for either of your bows? I am physically disabled but with the help of two other friends and about to participate in my first craft fair! I am beyond excited!!! And last but not least... you’re handwriting is just fine! I could read/see it clearly!

[@cindywatson3083]

Love your ideas. I have used them in my own craft fairs here in NC. When people ask how I got these ideas, I tell them to look you up. Some ask if you "sell"your ideas. LOL. I tell them that we in the craft world love to share!!! Question: When you do combo discounts like $3 or 2/$5, do you allow them to mix and match anything on your table or just that item? Thanks for sharing everything. Love your videos.

[@CraftyCraftsByDeanna]

Paper items can mix and match sure!

[@michelerichter4]

Totally agree with going with the prices for your area, sellers really need to keep that in perspective, I know that my area is considered to be kind of poor, so I know that like a $40 bag most likely wouldn't sell. I'd be gifting that, or selling it on eBay or Etsy, I had my craft show and it was so warm and humid out, all I heard was mostly complaints from kids being too hot, or the adults being too hot, most didn't stay very long, they looked and left. I sold only one tissue box thing I made, as the shopper was having her allergies act up due to not taking any allergy medicine (yes her and her daughter argued over that right in front of me and the other person I share my booth with).. kinda funny really. There were loads of people that said everything was nice, pretty or cute, but no buyers, and some of the sellers even left early. It was only a 5 hour event. I planned on it being short, so I took items I thought would sell well, I guess I should have made t-shirts instead, because that seemed to be selling ... or I should add cannabis oil as something to sell... or wreaths. I had some wreaths I was going to finish earlier that day, but I overslept, because I've been busy finishing up projects (or trying to finish up projects) while taking people shopping, or to appointments, and learning how to use the Design N' Cut my sister gave me once she got the new Scan N' Cut (both by brother). My next craft show probably isn't going to be until the fall, unless I see one that is looking for vendors during the summer.
