Title: Stall set up on Sat 16th
Post by: shelltilly on April 18, 2011, 03:30:12 PM
My stall is getting better, with the layout etc, but I wish now, having seen the photo, Id' lifted my baskets up a little more to give a steeper slope to them.  Nex time I know better.  The soap stand DH made is wonderfull, fits 26 bars of soap on and is light weight, I didn't bother painting it this time as its new, but will get grubbly so need to for next time, which is 14th May.  One a month seems to be my limit with working full time too.  It was  a nice sunny day and Daughter helped me, we did very well indeed, for a begginer anyway, we sold 70 bars of soap, indidvidually as no takers on the 3 for a tenner offer, Yorkshire people are renound for being tight :mwaha:

That set up looks fab! Glad to hear you did well too, such a relief I bet given all the time and effort it takes to set up etc.

I'm doing a craft fair on May Day, just selling my melts, and am somewhat nervous!

Goodly display - I do agree that a bit more slope on the baskets would help.

that's absolutely perfect, I'd be like a pig in mud if I came across a stall like that!!  :o

Infact you've given me the kick up the bum to improve on my stall, although I could never get it to look as good as yours  :-\

A little more angle on the baskets, but otherwise a beautiful display. I would sell my mother if it meant selling 70 bars of soap.

That is a lovely stall.  I'm in awe of how much soap you have on display there - I have my first craft fair this weekend, and I'm worrying my stall is going to look a bit bare - I have nowhere near as much soap as that!
