lindsaycb Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Someone make the decision for me. The show is a 3 day show in a well traveled mall. $180, which to me, isn't bad at all. I know the hours are long, but are shows really worth it right now?The show is Jan 19-21. So that'd be perfect Vday gift time. But we're still in great candle season too.The mall may have a Bath & Body Works...but they don't have a LUSH..so these people would love love love bath bombs & massage bars. So it could be all good.ORI do have another option for a craft show the same weekend, but its based around winter activities. Ice Sculptures & things...first time the craft show is even involved. PLUS we have no snow. No winter yet! Shoot, my grass is green (almost)! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Girl Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Mall. Without hesitation.It has heat. Yay!I hate first year craft shows. And I'm also bitter about outside shows of any kind. Too many variables when it comes to the weather. My luck that morning, there would be a blizzard. Ya know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lindsaycb Posted January 4, 2007 Author Share Posted January 4, 2007 So a January show could actually be worth it? That's my bigger problem. Sure sales rocked last year...but I've never done a show in the first quarter of the year before.Oh and let me clarify...the craft show is indoors...LOL. In a fieldhouse. Yikes, outdoor, NO WAY. I can't stand them as it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Uh you can have those things inside a building chicks. I'd opt for the more highly traveled place, but I hate malls too lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grumpy Girl Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Uh you can have those things inside a building chicks. Ya think? I think the mall would still be the best bet, and of COURSE you can do it! If you weren't a million miles away, I'd even come help ya for a day. I'm bored. LOL!

lindsaycb Posted January 4, 2007 Author Share Posted January 4, 2007 Get on up here Grump! Bring those damn cupcakes.The only thing that's holding me back now...is it is an annual winter softball tournament is in in Madison. We drink all day...and all night while they try to play ball.To sit at a show...or at the bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrealh1975 Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 To sit at a show...or at the bar.Think about it this way... Making some money or getting drunk!! LOLYou could make SO much money over those 3 days. Think about all the people who will be there spending the money that got as Christmas gifts and end of year bonuses!!

Grumpy Girl Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Oh yeah, you just had to throw the bar factor in didn't you?Money, liquor, money, liquor... OMG, that's it, I can't decide for you now. LMAO! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lindsaycb Posted January 4, 2007 Author Share Posted January 4, 2007 see my priorities are messed up...bloody mary's at 9am:drool: , or sell some bombs to people who don't have a clue what they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debscent Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 Take the bath bombs to the bar, cause you know some man pissed off his woman by being at the bar in the first place, so he'll need to buy a "make up" gift. LOL!Seriously--the alcohol will be there on Monday...do the mall show, it's better to make money than spend it on alcohol (I know...not fun, but think of all the $$ you could make to spend on a vacation where hot men bring YOU drinks)...(deb is off to find a mall show for $180)...hell, our mall shows are are $360.

BruceCarvesWax Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 Hell we are still at the mall doing our Christmas show! Going to pack it up tomorrow night. Some times we do ok at the mall with a late Jan. craft show and some times it sucks. Craft shows here are 75.00 but then they have ran them in the ground and let people sell Tupperware even. LOL I want to see the crafter the made the Tupperware! Being realistic I would guess your sales could be close to $1000.00 if its a good 3 days. I wouldn't expect much over that this time of year unless they promote it right. Bruce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
