RobinInOR Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 My favorite fair The river makes a nice backdrop. DH made me a new chalkboard sign to announce specials, and it worked really well. Sold out of anything that was on the sign. The view from my chair in the back of the tentOne of these days I'll decide on "my look". Now I've got every imaginable design I think.Lip balm displayMy new display for my logs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cozyaromas Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Do you sell your logs as is, by the log, or do you cut up smaller bars of soap from that log and sell them? BTW, I love the pics and like you said the river fits perfectly with your products.I received a package from you via my secret buddy, and I still have my cranberry pillars, I refuse to burn it!!!

Casey Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Looks Great Robin! Love the new items board-great idea! Totally stealing it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blest2BAmerican Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 I always enjoy seeing pics of your goodies, and as usual everything looks great! One couldn't ask for a better location to do a fair and I would have to be there every weekend if I could find a place like that. Your logs look great. If I remember correctly from another post you wrote, you sell in half loaves. Is that what these are? How did they go over? I like the chalkboard idea too! Hmmm, might have to use that one.

HeavenScentU Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Your booth looks very nice. I love your soap loaves. I would enter. The river behind you looks so tranquil and peaceful. That would be so distracting I would be tossing my fishing pole in it. I am happy you did well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jadryga Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Beautiful! I'd probably spend an hour or two just browsing at your shop if I could (frustrating DH in the process ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaxFlower Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 What a great booth! Love the scenery too. Great job!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharyl55 Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 I love looking at your set ups Robin. They always look so inviting. The river in the background is perfect for you. Your logs look awesome. Glad you had a great day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brenda Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Your booth displays always look inviting. I agree with others; the chalkboard is a great tool. When I see items written on a chalkboard I always think "fresh stuff" in the back of my mind plus "what a deal"! :highfive:I find the tub of lip balms appealing too, makes me want to rummage around to find just the one I want...and the log display - I'd be checking those out too. Sitting by a river selling great products...can't imagine a better way to do it! Sure beats selling inside a stuffy building. Really nice!

EmpressC Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Thanx for posting the photos, Robin. Gives me some much needed ideas! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinInOR Posted August 14, 2007 Author Share Posted August 14, 2007 Thanks Go ahead and steal the chalkboard idea, it really does catch your eye. This one was made out of a 1/4 inch birch sheet, and it's really too thin - it warps. I wanted it light, though, and easy to make. DH just had to cut the square out to make legs, painted with chalkboard paint, and sealed the legs. Now all I have to do is learn how to write on a chalkboard The other think that catches customers eyes - the twirly flower thingy. The movement at least makes them look instead of walking by without even a glance. Only thing - after 2-3 hours it squeaked! Drove me nuts. The logs do OK, and from comments, I think they'll really do well at Christmas. I've sold 3 of them in the last 2 weeks. Yes, these are half logs - I cut my full logs into 2 8" logs and one bar.

Candybee Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Great pics Robin! Love your booth and you soaps look so nice! I used to live just outside Portland many years ago and would visit the Sandy river to swim and tube. Ha ha! I remember everybody in Oregon fishes!! Your pics remind me of my days back when in Oregon! Thanks for the trip to memory lane!! Loved it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scented Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Ahhh perhaps we should swap out our eraser board for that chalkboard idea. I like. And colored chalk is fun to play with too lol.Actually I always like your displays and can't ever see enough of them! This one is not exception.
