The Results

Tessa and Ali: our first craft fair!

So while our first craft fair wasn't stellar, it was still okay. The biggest problem was just that the fair was really slow, so there simply wasn't the volume of people needed to make a ton of sales.

That being said, we did still make a few sales (four in total, bringing in $48), and that seemed to be about on par with what the other vendors at the fair were doing. While we wish that we had sold more, at least we sold something, and two items even went to people we didn't know! (Thanks so much to our friends who came out and bought items too! Ali and I really appreciate your support.)

The good news is that everyone said how great and professional our display was, and we got a lot of positive feedback on all the products. We also have a lot of the administrative work done, as well as having a decent amount of inventory now. The items will very soon be posted to Etsy, so hopefully that will start to take off.

Eco-friendly bags

Pretty flowers


In the meantime Chris and I need to re-shoot the bags, as the original photos weren't fantastic, and Ali and I are going to continue plugging away at making flowers and bags.


Thanks!
