Swap Meet on January 22 - Local Fundraiser

Monday, January 3, 2011

Looking through our stash of Ready-to-Ship items, I realised we have WAY too much on hand at the moment, for our tiny studio, so we'll be participating at a local Swap Meet on January 22nd, with a kid-friendly business table!

We'll be selling our legwarmers (with new packaging!) changing pad covers, fitted crib and toddler sized sheets, as well as minky blankets! Custom orders for all of the above can be placed at the meet, and if you see something you like, and would like to buy it ahead of time, we will have pick-up packages ready to go too :)



Wasn't sure that craft fairs/swap meets, etc... were the direction we wanted to go with the business, but I'm always willing to support community fundraisers, especially when the proceeds go towards a great elementary school.

Here's the flier, complete with details!



New Directions

I think I'm going to start going to swapmeets... I have heard some really good things about them, and there are some huge ones out in Cloverdale at the Fair Grounds, and they allow people to sell new goods there.

I always do really well with the leg warmers at craft fairs, and now that I have an assortment of items, and about a billion leg warmers, it would be good to market them elsewhere than on etsy. The one downfall is that it costs money to have a table, and you're not always guaranteed to make it back.

But, tables are only $25, that's about three pairs of leggings. Not bad. I bet I could do better than that, especially if it's as busy as people say they get.

Going to sign up for a few, just to see. Bonus is that it's located five minutes away from my sister-in-law's place.

Will have more details as they get closer!
