So tagging is good for sized items(hats, scarfs, blankets, socks, bags) Signs are good for one sized fits all (Scrunchies...)

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Yes, that's a great way to put it! 💕

[@loopedtherapy8583]

I was just doing signs and it wasn’t working out that well. I did start using tags and noticed a huge difference! It really does help to do both.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Yes it totally does!!! You wouldn’t think it would matter as much as it does! ❤️

[@susancook1448]

Thanks so much. Doing a craft show for the first time inn25 years so catching up. Agree-I’ll tag the more expensive or unique items

[@camryns_cute_creations]

That's amazing! I'm so glad to hear you want to get back into craft shows! 😁 You'll have to update me on how it goes for you! 😊❤️

[@indiaamazon5111]

Me watching this video while I individually tag my products for a market this weekend 🤩🤣. Awesome video.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Oh my gosh too funny!😂 I love this!

[@tokitokisojin]

Omg I love how your tags let you check off which care instructions to use!!! I was wondering what I should do since it's different for certain items!

[@camryns_cute_creations]

It makes the tagging process a lot easier for sure:)

[@benitatatters]

I am going to use both tags and signs

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Having a mix is a great idea!

[@cameronayers2414]

I would LOVE to learn more about how you use SKUs and manage inventory!

[@camryns_cute_creations]

You've got it :)

[@prosp3rity111]

Thank you for your videos. I’m just getting started. These are very helpful. I want to use tags and will be watching that video.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

I'm so glad you're enjoying the content! Please let me know what kinds of videos/topics would be most helpful for you, and never hesitate to reach out with any questions! ❤️

[@EricaJFrancis]

I’m doing my first craft fair in a month and I was just gonna use a sign with all my prices on there but now I’m gonna do both! Thank you for the information🤍

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Awww yay! I’m so glad it was helpful! You’ll have to let us know how your market goes :)

[@meganpetersen2751]

Yay thank you! Looking forward to next weeks video about making them! Cause I can’t find exactly what I want.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

I can’t wait to share how to make them! You’ll be able to customize it exactly how you want! 🫶🏼

[@Crowberrycrafts]

I ended up doing both. Tagging even the $5 items, as I do consignment as well and they require tags on everything . Very tedious but I’ve been told by the store that people use my tag as a gift tag when gifting the item so it works out in the end 😁

[@camryns_cute_creations]

That's awesome that they use your tags as gift tags!! That's an amazing way to keep the word of your products spreading! :)

[@VShermanNY]

I can’t wait to tryout my new tags I made using your template 🙌🏻 I plan to use both signs & tags. Signs to draw them in “BEST SELLERS” & tags to make the sale! Yes I got the best sellers idea from you too 😊

[@camryns_cute_creations]

I'm so glad I'm able to provide information you find valuable! The only thing I want out of all this is to be able to help you and everyone else be as confident and successful as possible! ❤️

[@Lisa-bh6pj]

I use sign and tags! I attach my business card to a blank white tag with the item name and price so they can tear off the white tag and leave the business one if they gift it:)

[@camryns_cute_creations]

What a GREAT idea! I love this! Especially with all the people buying gifts with the holidays coming up!!!

[@DarlingandDear]

I'm going to use tags

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Awesome! Tags have so many advantages, like pseudo business cards :)

[@claudiavessel2691]

I’ve never tagged individually. Will give that a try at my next Market in about a week. Thank you! 😃

[@camryns_cute_creations]

I'd love to hear what you think of it after you've tried it! :)

[@kreaturekomforts]

I like the idea of tags, even though it takes more time and $$. For me, if something isn't clear (ie. A sign not nearby or perhaps it got knocked over, etc.), I'm okay with asking if the vendor is accessible. If they're with other customers, it makes it awkward to wait as I don't like to interrupt. If they've got their head down and are busy doing something, it also is very awkward because I don't want to disrupt whatever they're doing. So tags are my preference. Great video and tutorial!

[@camryns_cute_creations]

You make some great points! Thank you for sharing! :)

[@kerryc7502]

I have a BIG 5 day event in two weeks and I am using both methods.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Wow 5 days!? I’ve never done one that long before!!! Who much inventory are you bringing???

[@kerryc7502]

@@camryns_cute_creations I’m still making!! I have around 25-30 beanies, 25-30 ear-warmers, 5-10 Xmas tree trios, (+a few singles), 35-45 dishcloths, towels w/toppers, towels w/towel ring, towel rings(no towel), scrunchies, and cup cozies. A few other odds and ends. I’ve been crocheting like mad for the last 8 wks or so. 🤪 Not to mention all of the tagging and booth decor/prep I’ve had to do. This is my first “professional” market. No hand written signage. 😳

[@kelliannerosner]

New to the channel and love the tips! Thank you!

[@camryns_cute_creations]

So glad you find them helpful! 🫶🏼 Welcome to the channel! 🥰 Lots more coming soon!!!

[@sadiewest7021]

If you’re in the uk, by law you have to tag certain items (they are very strict with selling toys) so it’s worth tagging everything.

[@camryns_cute_creations]

I did not know that about the UK! Thank you for sharing :)

[@valeriestitchingblind1261]

I’ll be tagging my items.. thank you so much for your videos..😎

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Of course! :)

[@nancymorales834]

I'll do both

[@camryns_cute_creations]

That's awesome! Being able to balance both signs and tags to display prices can be so wonderful! :)

[@theleftiecrochetco]

Kicking myself because I literally individually tagged everything but didn't add the prices for my first market hahahahaha so helpful, thanks Camryn!! Definitely I want to add the tag prices next time! And I want to learn about SKUs!

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Oh my gosh, Melissa!😂 I’ve totally done that before tho! Or just totally spaced & forgot to tag stuff! 🤦🏼‍♀️

[@SchnedenCo]

I love your content & positivity! 😊 My customers have shared that they especially like the tags if they are gifting their purchase-seems more high-end. I’m trying now to figure out a way to use the cute tags I design and make myself but also make it so they can remove the price before gifting. Maybe not super sticky stickers on the back? Would love ideas! Oh, and I also created To/From tags to make gifting even easier, and included all my socials, just like you advise, so it’s double the exposure. Thanks again!

[@camryns_cute_creations]

What a great idea to add the to and from on the tags!😍 I have a couple videos on tagging on my channel where I link the stickies I use to add the price and sku #! The peel off really easy making it easy to take price off for gifts:)

[@user-dn5gd4ex4z]

I love these Idea's, i'm going to implement them when i start doing markets here in Australia, my question is, the sweater you have on is that knitted and where can I find one??

[@camryns_cute_creations]

That sweater is actually from TJ Max!

[@couturecrochet]

I'm in washington too!!! 🥰🥰

[@camryns_cute_creations]

Oh my gosh, so fun! :)
