"If you have an EZ-Up, many of the newer ones have a flap or clear pouch inside the awning, so some people turn the awning vertical upwards, and the sealed pouch underneath displays the banner, That eliminates having a sun shade in the front so it…"

"I found a solution!  Twist in upholstery tacks like the ones my grandmother used on her armchair covers. They are clear so they blend in with my sign."

"I'm attaching it to the back of my tent, inside, hanging down from a horizontal bar.  I'm guessing you want to hang yours on the outside, above the horizonal bar, so my method would not work."

"Thank you for your reply! Are you hanging your sign below the front of the tent? Otherwise, I'm thinking that I would have to put some holes in the tent for the ties to go through."

Hi, I could use some advice from you Art fair veterans out there!  I am making my own sign to hang on the front of my tent.  Any advice on how to hang it?  I'm contemplating either velcro (which I would have to sew to the tent), or clamps - but I would hate for one to fall. I have a 10'x10' EZ up.ThanksSee More

Pam Hinson replied to Lynn Dalton's discussion My booth photo - first stab
"Both of your pictures look so nice and neatly organized.  My first thought is that I would like to see some openings in the tent to show what's happening around it.  Like some trees or live greenery in or outside the booth.  I…"

Pam Hinson commented on dolly ramot's blog post Doing shows by yourself
"I think the hardest part of the EZ up tent is needing 2 people to pull it apart. I usually ask someone around me to help with that, then I can take it from there.  Loading and unloading metal grids and tables can be tiring, but the trade off is…"
