Also yes please don't reduce the price of items mid-market!! i feel that sometimes, I will always have some items that may not sell at one market (or for several 😅) keep it at that price for the whole market and then decide if it is worth it to lower the price at the next market! Some items i was very stubborn on and did not reduce the price at all and I still have them since my first market! but I'm okay with that because if its an item i was proud of making/i like how it looks then I like keeping those/showcasing those on my market table! It gives the customers an idea of what I am able to make, and if you lower the price too much it might bite you in the bum later if a customer messages/commissions you after the market asking you to make that item for the same price you had it at the market (for me its hard to say no as i may potentially lose out on a customer)

Just a suggestion for if you run in to having a small space/table again. Get a few flat topped wicker garbage pails and flip them upside down to put your tiered baskets on or get some plastic 5 gallon buckets and flip them upside down and cover with a cloth then put your tiered baskets on those. Then you save table space but it elevates your baskets of flowers to closer to table level. You have a lovely display!

Tbh if I had a shop there I would probably leave my stand to shop at other vendors everyone’s set up is soo cuteee 😭

[@aprilgeorge3328]

I love how helpful most crocheters are. There is so much drama within the TT community sometimes on pricing and what-not and it's great to see a supportive community here.

I'm so glad you ended up on my homepage! Hidden gem. Just watched all of your videos and I can't wait to see the future of your business and your channel. Also your booth setup is already so so pretty and professional. I know you were too busy at your first show, but were you able to make some friends at this one?

[@kathrynnance6889]

I love your work! And thanks for sharing your experience.

[@amyx231]

Your prices seem reasonable. I just started to crochet but the time for 1 scrunchie is 1 hour. I can’t imagine a cactus taking less than that, even for an experienced crocheter.

[@JingoCrochet]

Love watching your crochet vlogs!! can't wait to see more! 🥰

[@beckyhalfhill3552]

Everything looks amazing!

[@krayowscatyt]

I just found your channel like an hour ago and finished your market prep vlogs, so funny to catch this upload so quick 😂

[@MonaDidWhat]

You do awesome work, love your banner.

[@OrleneE]

Hello! I make crochet flowers too and have been looking into attending my first market. Your video was so uplifting and helpful for a first timer like me. Thanks for sharing your experience.

[@margaritaaranda5584]

[@craftystitchaway432]

Your set up is beautiful and also your work and choice of items are beautiful as well. I loved it.

[@annmarieacosta1343]

[@samanthawright23]

[@trinadusharm1093]

Found your channel the other day, your flowers are pretty (and April is soooo cute!) Market prepping today so I might as well binge a few of your videos lol.

[@elizabethrehlinger2144]

Beautiful items, so much work. I hope the market table was not too expensive. Crowds are fickle! Definitely save items for next event, and make easy items for your giveaways! Thank you for sharing your experience and insights!

[@karenwang9267]
