Christmas in July

Back to school, Thanksgiving, Halloween – all of these events yet to come before we start hearing Christmas jingles in the malls.  But in the crafting world, we’re relishing in the beautiful sunny days on one hand, but are building snowmen and stuffing stockings in our heads!  I’m just about to get started on building up my inventory for this year’s series of craft fairs, and to get my head in the right place, I decided that reminiscing on last year’s craft fair season would do the trick.

Here’s what my table looked like:

I was selling jewelry also last year, so that is occupying the right hand side of my table, but the left hand side is all of my hand made crafting stuff.

I had a ballot box for a drawing of the Christmas tree, which also allowed people ot sign up for my monthly newsletter.  I was giving away Idea Books for FREE as well.  I had little candy sticks with decorative toppers, card purses, mini albums and the best sellers, were gift card holders.  I’ll be making ALOT of these for this year, and with Close to my Heart’s Cricut cartridges, these will be EXTRA easy!!  Stay tuned for my very first video, that will focus on using the Cricut cartridges to make gift card holders!
