Lindsay, Myself I use mainly black and I have started using carpeted screens that are a shade of grey. I would like to go to grey more but it is expensive to do a compete changeover. If you end up doing inside shows I have had to carry proof of be…

I've tried black sheets in the past and just didn't like the way they looked and they do wrinkle too much. I don't do this full time so spending a ton of money on cloths is really out of the question for me. Today my color choice is white or black…

Lindsay, The attached image is the only one I can find right now. I am at work and don't have access to my files. It is not particularly good since it is rather dark and is now 3 years old. A lot has changed since then. The dark table cloth to the l…

I so agree Sharon........so how about it everyone? Care to share pics of your booth/displays? I'm in Virginia and just do shows around where I live so I promise you won't find me at the same show with a booth that looks like yours .

You all have brought up great points.........I love this place :-) Is polyester the best fabric to use for making table covers? With four 4' tables, 36" high and wanting three sides of the tables covered, if I've done my math correctly (and I'm te…

Lindsay, you've gotten so much good advice from others that I don't have anything to add. My comment is that I really enjoy hearing what other artists have done with their booths, and wonder if anyone would care to share photos? It would be so nice…
