LOML helped me out by changing my display to a Christmas flavor. We tried it out at the Farmers and Crafts market on Saturday. We were told that the first Saturday after Thanksgiving is supposed to be a big sales day for the market, but this year did not seem to be that way for us or for any of the other vendors as far as I could tell. This was our second time to be at the market, which is held every Wednesday and Saturday. It was a good way to work out the new display for our next Craft Show which will be next Sunday. Here is what the new display looks like...oh yeah, we also decided to get one of those EZ-UP tent thingies since so many vendors have them these days. www.samsclub.com/shopping/navigate.do?dest=5&item=376280&pCatg=4635I do like it quite a bit, and it was less than $200.00 at Sams Club. It has sides that can be put up too, but we did not use them this time.    |

Doug, I really like your set up - and for 200 bucks for that EZ up - you can't go wrong! At some point, I may decide to venture into the craft show shin dig - I may have some questions for you and the guys who frequently do them. It looks good, I'da bought from ya!!  Zac |

Thanks Zac. I could have used your business I am still very new to the craft shows and I have a lot to learn...I had 3 or 4 very interested folks that I was sure were going to make a good purchase and did not...must have said something wrong  I did make 3 sales, 2 of which were high end pens, so it was worthwhile going...especially since the market only costs $2.00 per day! And it is very good experience for me to gain. Next weekend is the big test at a higher end craft show...I'll see if I have learned anything yet  |

Nice display, Doug. Your LOML is pretty handy at that holiday theme stuff. The opportunity to fine-tune your display and make sales, too, is pretty neat...especially for only $2 a day. BTW, do you have a head? I've seen your shirt, jeans and cell phone. How about a head shot sometime? |
