Title: Re: Ripley Christmas Fair Post by: Curlywurly on December 07, 2010, 09:39:59 AM beautiful stall, very inticing. not sure why the people of ripley didn't feel the same. they must be mad!
Title: Re: Ripley Christmas Fair Post by: shelltilly on December 07, 2010, 03:21:50 PM Wow thats lovely, something I have not done yet, a stall. Ypur's looks lovely, hope you did well at it.
I just love the little brown paper bags. Would anyone tell me were I can get supplies of similar for when I might eventualy get my cert. and have a stall myself at my local fairs ? Shell :) Title: Re: Ripley Christmas Fair Post by: shelltilly on December 07, 2010, 03:27:56 PM You seem sooo busy, you do alot of stalls. I havn't done one yet. Im just being nosey but how many batches of soap do you make on average before you go to market so to speak. Do you have to take tons of soap with you. I'd be scared of taking too much and scared of not taking enough either, I bet it's really hard getting it right, especialy in the beginning.
Shell :) Title: Re: Ripley Christmas Fair Post by: Andy on December 07, 2010, 04:40:07 PM Very very pretty, and so tidy too!
Title: Re: Ripley Christmas Fair Post by: retropants on December 07, 2010, 05:17:29 PM Shell, I make heaps and heaps. every year is different. last year I sold out of gingergrass, this year, lavender & geranium, which didn't sell that well last year, so I didn't make as much!!
I've had to book an extra event this year because sales have been much lower that usual, and I don't want to store 200 bars of soap thankyou very much! :mwaha: Title: Re: Ripley Christmas Fair Post by: corrie on December 07, 2010, 07:13:47 PM It very much depends on the size of the fair and where it is as to how much to make & take.
Always best to take too much - just incase. I have a stand that holds 72 bars, so I usually fill that and take a few spares of popular ones, not that I would sell 72 at a small fair. Also if you only sell soap, you will need enough to make a decent & attractive display like Retro's. Title: Re: Ripley Christmas Fair Post by: Scott on December 07, 2010, 07:50:22 PM Lovely stall - beautifully presented products - really well done! :buttrf:
Title: Re: Ripley Christmas Fair Post by: madpiano on December 07, 2010, 07:53:25 PM wow, that's lovely. Just as well that I am giving up on fairs....I am jealous of all your tables. Mine was way too German ::)
Title: Re: Ripley Christmas Fair Post by: Avril on December 08, 2010, 09:05:09 AM Looks really professional..I am so surprised you did not do well...but I have noticed people just are'nt buying as much this year.
Title: Re: Ripley Christmas Fair Post by: Celia on December 13, 2010, 03:13:45 PM Wow! Your stall looks fab and your soaps are presented very professional :buttrf:
Thanks for sharing Celia Title: Re: Ripley Christmas Fair Post by: Esby on December 17, 2010, 02:09:32 PM That looks great! I would head there the minute I saw it :mwaha:.
