i will do that show again next year
Nice assortment of pieces, Chris! Hey, you still made out OK on a $40.00 investment! And it's just your first show; Give it some time. :) So, what were the big sellers? :cool:
i sold 6 bowls
quite honestly most of my stuff was cheap priced
but.....
That's a start Chris,
Good luck on the next one.
Can we get a close up of some of your work?? Looking real good from a distance.

Very Nice indeed! I've been lurking around your sight before. I remember the wedding pix. Waiting for an update on the next show.
Your website is not for us dialup types, that's for sure. I tried to browse the Michigan images to see if you stayed in Da Mitten with the trolls or came UP to the good part, but it took forever to load.
Always nice to sell some stuff, because then you can make more. Shows this year bought my daughter's wedding gown ($) and rented the hall. Going to have to be a big summer to pay back the reception cost, though. May have to add a show.
If six of what I see sold for $260, you're cheaper than I am!
well my pieces were marked to be pretty decently priced ( i had bowls from $10 -$200 ) i am still learning and wanted my "practice" pieces gone
Craft shows are tough sometimes... I have done them in the past and found that it was difficult to compete with low dollar items, especially if the show allows other people to be importers. You can still do it, but you have to make it a point that you are the one that created all the work. Did you have to do any work for the show or did the $40 cover everything... There are 2 craft shows in Phoenix that are held at different schools and they want 8 hours of work as well as the $40, just curious.
Your bowls look very nice... hang in there and make sure that people know about your WWW site. :)
