That's good.If I look at someone's stall and they are quite happy and smiley when I walk away buying nothing, their good attitude usually makes me remember the stall and come back if they are still there in future.

Congratulations !
Very nice table and products !
Best wishes for your following fairs.
 

Polly, It's yoiur fabulously packages soaps and products that make your stall look really appealing! Full of things that look substantial and superb quality.

Polly that looks great !! Many people round here use bedsheets as table covers. The polyester ones are cheap and don't wrinkle (horrible to sleep on though).

That thing about the lables on the body butter rings a bell. The first event we did, we had hardly any lables ready and sold most of it with just a card chucked into the bag  think it's just one of those things....

By the end of the summer you will be a pro, don't worry. I love your packaging, it looks sooo georgeous and sweet. Don't worry about the blunt shoppers, you have the luck of being in a tourist town, you'll sell by the bucket load come summer.

Did you also notice that b&b stuff seems to be selling better than soap ? Round here it does and I need to make more before the next fair, while I still have plenty of soap to go round...

Gosh guys, you're all being really nice! Thank you!

I found that i really liked talking to people about the soaps and butters (got to pitch it right, and know when not to bother wasting your time  ) I

MP, I didn't sell any butters today, 3 yesterday. I need to make more this week, and make them more prominent.

I think the pricing overall was ok - cheap enough that most people would have a few pounds in their purse, but possibly more expensive than some people are prepared to pay.

The funkier soap slices sold well too - really cool scents that were mostly very sweet (P Chi Keen ... was a winner ) and kids loved them too. I've got one of the sheep mould from SP so I'm thinking pink and sparkly ones for next week.

Would love to see pics of the pink sparkly ones when you've made them 

Polly, Your table looks great and that is a good amount for your first outing. If you start going once a week or month you should build up a regular customer base and as you said make the most of the tourist season.
This could be the beginning of your soap empire

Your table looks really good, well done.  Good luck with the other fairs.

The table looks fab, wel done

 

Your products love lovely well done.

Polly the table and soapies look very pretty, i'm surprised you put a disclaimer.

Thanks guys

CB, I don't like the wrinkles you can see on the bed sheet  It wasn't the poshest of locations so it was fine (and will probably have to do this weekend as well). 

polly the wrinkles are not pretty when you are looking at them only , but what attracts me first is the packaging of the soaps, which draws you in. You are looking at the table from a different angle than a buyer, besides when you have perfected everything else you begin to find faults where there is none. Maybe you can (i hope you get this) push in the edges and hold down with a drawing pin if you decide to continue using the sheet, there's isnt anything to worry about at all but it would come to you the more you do it.

Thank you CB, being very self critical if one of my things, (and it restricts me in some ways but that's another story).

I get what you mean about the drawing pins and that is something I'll try this week if i can. 

Polly, that looks amazing.  Simple yet so sooo pretty    I love the presentation of the soaps and well done for doing so well.  Good for you
