just getting started


First show ever

I've done several crafts fairs over the years, but haven't been in a juried show. My first show was probably in Sioux Falls, SD, back around 1991, selling wreaths and dried flowers. I did a series of shows when I lived in TN around 2003-2004, selling handwoven rag rugs.

What are the best things about art fairs

Seeing all the creativity on display. Also visiting with artists from all over the country.


Best show ever and why

A Christmas show in Dickson, TN. Good crowds and good sales. Very well-run operation.


Worst show ever and why

A show in Columbia, TN. There were people selling SOCKS there, for God's sake! Had to buy a city business license for $50. What a rip-off. I didn't sell a thing. Then the police had locked down the town square so I couldn't bring my car up to load up after the show. I had to haul everything down a DARK scary alley to get to my car. What a nightmare.
