I signed up to do a flea market here in my area. its 30.00 to have the booth for two days. i figured that wasnt bad for my first time. hubby and i scoped it out yesterday and there is a couple women there that sell bows but i dont want to be mean but there very basic no frills no lined clips or anything like that. my hubby thinks i will do really well, i hope so too. ok back to my question sense i rambled on lol. I know i want to use a canvas bow board but how else do u display:confused1: i have a 10 x 10 spot. any help is appreciated.

That sounds like a lot of fun. I have no advice though. I'm still only make bows for my daughter and sometimes her friends. :)

If you go to Google and click on the image search and then type in "hair bow craft show" you will come up with a few set ups you could look at for ideas.

Great stand!! I haven't done a 10x10 space yet, only tables. Thanks for the ideas if I ever do have the opportunity.

I added a picture of one of my set ups for a show in early Dec.

Everyone has nice set ups :)

Heather-When do you go in to do the flea market? Good luck! I don't think I'd ever have the courage to do one of those or even a craft show! :)

Most places are 10 x 10. If you get a tent be sure and get something real strong to hold it down.

I like your display. Is it difficult to set up the tent?

Good Luck! I'm going to use some chandelier type candle holders and trying to come up with something for the toggle headbands!

I would guess that some way of making the product visible would be best....what about a clothesline across 1 or 2 sides and some of the display cards with bows clothes pinned on?

I love your displays. I have done a few craft fairs and have shared with my SIL's. They make other stuff, so they have to display them. I don't have much room for mine, so I'm trying to come up with other ways so it doesn't interfer with theirs. I was trying to figure out what to do with my toggle headbands on how to display them.

I have figured out a cheap way to make clippy cards for display. I take blank business cards and print my name vertically on them. Then I cut 2 lines with a razor knife to insert the clippies. Much easier when I run out of premade display cards.
