What to make for Holiday Craft Show?

Question

I want to set up a table at a Craft show comming up and I just found out about it. I have never done one before but would love to start. I was wondering what kinds crafts sell? Or what you sell? I am just looking for ideas to make. Tutorials would be helpful. Best advise gets 10 pts.

Answer 1

I sell my handmade jewelry at craft shows, but any craft that you enjoy will work. I recommend you try different things like I did and you will find your favorite and then you can focus on that. I still sell other crafts with my jewelry, like handbags, beaded light switch covers, beaded birdhouses, wind chimes, and tons of other things. Good luck and have a good time with whatever you do.

Answer 2

Of course, center pieces and wreaths. Some can be very striking if you have the knack for it. I rarely see them made with real cedar and just might go over better than the fake ones.
Also,
make Christmas platters or bowls using clear glass or plastic and decoupage holiday fabric or paper on the back side, then seal it with clear urethane. Hand wash, do not soak. Quick and easy and inexpensive.

Ornaments are good. Old or new salt and pepper shakers (chickens or other figurines) use the holes to affix string or hood for hanging, then poke tassels (the knotted end) into the hole in the bottom. If the knot is too small to stay put, use glue or stick a wire through the knot, loop the ends so it won't slip out, then work it into the hole so it lays sideways and holds the knot in the hole.

Hope you can visualize with the instructions, and hope you have gotten some ideas from this. Have a great time.

Answer 3

Make adorns on your Christmas tree. One uncomplicated and decrease priced one is to water down some white glue and positioned it in a pie plate. Blow a balloon as much as with regard to the dimensions of your fist. utilising crochet cotton or yarn in Christmas hues or glittery ones, bypass the string via the glue and wipe off extra including your hands, then wrap the string around the balloon in each course. Get solid coverage yet be confident to circulate away some areas. draw close them to dry with a clothespin on yet another piece of yarn which you have have been given hung around the room. while thoroughly dry, pop the balloon and take the products out of your decoration. upload a hook and a purple ribbon, then draw close them on your tree. you will need string or yarn in hues of your selection Glue balloons hooks (elective as you are able to basically a tie in basic terms slightly string to entice close them in case you desire) ribbon and clothespins for drying. each little thing could be got here across at dollar shops.
