Sales Events

There are only 2 shows I have attended. I sell mainly through consignment in local shops .


This first one was organized very quickly as a benefit for a local cancer victim. So there wasn't much time for me to come up with a pretty display. Ach! I had no table cover.


Here is a poor picture of the table with my so very helpful Granddaughter. We both had fun and there was a pretty good turnout for a show with such short notice that lasted only 5 hours.





Here is my table at the Fall fest where there were many different types of vendors. There were also quite a lot of jewelry vendors too. There were a lot of choices for customers. We weren't really in competition since every jewelry maker has a distinct style that will appeal to some but not to others.



Most of the local jewelry artists network with one-another. We trade ideas, information, and even make purchases from one-another from time to time.


This sharing doesn't harm anyone's sales because no matter how much we gain from this relationship, we each still retain our unique style.
