I used to use weather plastic that you can get like at a Home Depot store. You tape it to your window in the winter and then you shrink wrap it with a hairdryer so it seals your windows from the cold. I don't know if it would be cheaper than Michael's shrink wrap bags but it's an idea. Good luck.
@@mschmidt6515 oh awesome!! Good to know! Thanks for the tip
This is so heartwarming and I for one am extremely grateful I have struggled to grow my channel but mostly due to my health issues and the fact that I care for my 94 year old mom who cannot walk and has dementia. I have a 2 day craft show this weekend and I plan to upload pictures and results of the show.
Awesome!! Can’t wait to watch it! Prayers to you and your mom. It can’t be easy for either of you
@ thank you so much!
I am going to try a date with a blind date. My husband does not think they will sale. The craft show is next Saturday.
I made them and sold really a lot at my 2 craft fairs.
Best of luck on your show!!
Haven’t jumped into videos yet but love watching all of the creations this crafty community produces! Soon maybe! I’ll have to check out some of your subscribers now!!! 😊
$3.50… The problem is so many people do not realize the work that goes into making these crafts. I know because I am a crafter. I too have to watch how much I spend i’m making the items I sell because people don’t want to pay.
@@lindagarza5726 yup exactly!!
This is a fantastic idea, Jessica! I would love to have people visit my channel. I like to dabble in all kinds of crafts but mostly I do paper crafting and sewing. By the way, the cards you showed in your video are beautiful. I see some channels below that I will definitely be visiting. Thanks again and have a wonderful holiday!!
I always do an after market so I can track what does and does not sell. I also like that you are looking for new items. My husband and I were just discussing this
That’s a good problem to have 😂 GoodLuck with everything
Hi Jessica, I kick back in the mornings and Watch your video's either crafting or with my morning Coffee, Thank you for all of the wonderful Tips and Tutorials, I am Shawnie Lee I am a 5 year TH-camr with my channel growing. I love all crafts and will try a whole lot of "Stuff" , Thank you for reaching out... www.youtube.com/@Glitzystitcheshome Have a Blessed Thanksgiving
Love this idea! You are so generous. 😊 I don't make videos- would love to, but it makes me a bit nervous. Lol. But I am prepping for my first craft show and working on creating/launching my business. If I can work up the courage to make and post videos, I'll probably change my TH-cam name and start posting under this account.
@@GardeniasandGrace I totally get it! I was nervous too but then just jumped in. Some videos I feel like I do ok with, others I’m like… well… it won’t get better than this so just gotta post it 🤣 but you can do it!!
Those cards are beautiful Jessica! 😍 I love the idea of this, yes Let's show each other some support.❤ ❤
Lovely cards, Jessica! I like your networking idea.
@@25Prague I’m already subscribed to you :)
The crafty community is a great community to be a part of. Thank you!
Subscribed!!
@ thank you so very much! As you can see, I am just getting started. 😊
Your journals look really pretty! That junky flashy one has caught my attention. I've subscribed and saved some of your videos to watch soon! 😊❤️
This is a wonderful idea! The YT crafty community is full of amazing and kind crafters who support one another! Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving! 😊
@@gailbankscreates already subscribed to yours :)
Congratulations on your success!
Thank you! I appreciate you!
What a great gift idea. Love the blanket holder. I think your price point is right Good luck on your next show
Thanks a bunch!
The journal kits are cute-and inexpensive! Maybe make a label for the package that says “journal kits.” 🤷🏻♀️But I agree with other poster they need to be none holiday
Thank you! Ill be sure to do that next year
I like what you did to revamp your hot cocoa packs! And I just have to say your videos are always very helpful and inspiring. I appreciate what you're doing on your channel.❤
Thank you so much I appreciate it!
glad to hear it was a good fair for you. love your items.
Thank you so much
Good information for shows. Glad you had a good show. I am only doing 2. My first was successful so hoping my last will be also.
I think your oven mitts are very pretty. A candy cane would be nice too, and they do last a long time. Good luck at your craft fair! Our fair was yesterday, and I am sure glad it's over. haha.
Thank you! How did you do?
@@Messybesscreations Our craft fair left a lot to be desired. There were almost 100 vendors, and I would say that the majority of us were disappointed. The attendance was okay, but people just were not buying anything. This is the first year that has happened. I would say I broke even so it wasn't a total loss. I sure hope your fair goes better than ours!
Would you share your inventory sheet? I’d be happy to purchase
Hi there! I already have it on my Etsy in a package messybesscreations.etsy.com/listing/1802009482
This is the video that talks about the pdf in case it’s helpful th-cam.com/video/LqJ7MOVSevM/w-d-xo.html
I’m doing my first fair in 3 years I had to bow out previous years because of health complications and surgeries I needed. I am back with all new stuff and I will be vending it tomorrow I set it up and I’m nervous but excited too. This video reminded me to set up an inventory list and also I made one of the mini notebooks to showcase a bookmark I made and it’s so cute. I want to make more for gift giving and to sell all year round.
@@washieka same here! I’m going to be changing the way I prep for craft fairs this next year. Best of luck to you!!
The first craft show I went to this year I did really well but the one I just went to today I did terrible. 😢. I barely made enough to cover my fee and materials. Last year at the same place I did really well. Such a let down. B.T.W. I ❤ your dog!
@@jacrippin1 boy do I feel that this year! It’s such a crapshoot
@@jacrippin1 hang in there! Hopefully next year things will pick up when people feel like they can afford things again
Thanks I hope so cause I sure have a lot of leftover inventory!@@Messybesscreations
@ do you have any others coming up that you could sign up for?
@Messybesscreations unfortunately many of the shows around me have fees starting at $150 and up. The lower priced ones are full but I am on a waiting list for 2 of them. I booked 1 more at the same place I was just at but I would rather not go than lose money so if I don't get into another one I'll just wait until next year and try to get on it earlier in the year. We just moved here last year so I'm still trying to find out which ones are good for me.
I made journals and mini notebooks for my craft fair but I only made a few Christmas themed. People wanted the notebooks and journals that they could carry year round
@@mitzisimpson6262 that is great feedback! Do you have a video on what types you did?
@@Messybesscreations I do not have a channel so I don’t have a video but they were covered with pretty flower paper and plaids with a color coordinated pen. I also had inspirational sayings on the front of half of them. Temu has great quality stickers that I bordered and added to the front
I had the same experience selling journals. Customers want more general than holiday specific. I made such cute Halloween dailys, but there was no interest❤
@ ohh the Halloween daily’s would be sooo cool!!
@@Messybesscreations in the fall I always make sunflower themed items. I have a sunflower table with fresh sunflowers. I sell out of several items
Love this!
❤👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I am vendor at craft shows too. Curious ..what is your bestseller?
@@louisejohnston4876 I post 1-2 videos each year that recaps my craft fair, I call it Studs and Duds. I just posted one about a week ago
Very inspiring, really like the wooden spoon touch.
Good idea
Why didn't you bring them to a food bank? Throwing it away is such a waste!
@@rcec1995 because they were expired by over 6 months. Why would I take something that expired?
@@Messybesscreationsahhh, you didn't say they were expired!
I believe candy canes can be saved for the following year. Love your videos and ideas.
Yeah maybe? I wasn’t sure and didn’t want to take a chance of someone breaking a tooth 🤣
I like your ip balm holders. How do you know what flavor is in each? Are the labeled on the outside?
I labeled them on the container they were in
Great set up.
Thanks! It's always a work in progress.
@@Messybesscreations your welcome
I love it. Mine didn't sell well last year. I think I will revamp mine as well.
WOW! Thank you for sharing your experience at this craft show. I love making journal items and they rarely ever sell in the two places I'm selling at on a daily. In my area, I have trouble finding where the craft fairs that might be good for me are. I'd like to find 3 or 4 shows that I like and focus on selling crafts there rather then at my two stationary spots I'm currently in. Any advice on how to find craft shows? Thank you again for sharing.
Yes! I was in the same boat so I started searching Facebook groups for my area and I searched using “craft fair vendors in (my state) and I joined 4 groups and started asking when/where some craft fairs might be coming. But be careful, people have figured out how to scam you there too 😫
@@Messybesscreations Okay perfect! I will try that. I like the shows that are one day or a half day just until I build up to a weekend show. It is truly a lot of work. Thank you!!
Do you have the link to the stand you have the ornaments on
Here you go amzn.to/4i4jgIT
I think the Santa ornaments didn’t sell bc people equate them with the junky kits sold at dollar tree-and although it seems like a cute memory maker to keep for the years- many parents might think it’s just something their kids will lose or break. Maybe instead of crayons-get a few hell pens or markers and maybe the teens or adults will buy them. Like adult coloring pages. 😊
Era-refers to Taylor Swift’s Eras tour. 😉
The recipe book, I have a thought ( Im going to try to make/ sell some), maybe put a recipe of yours in it as the first page? Or a couple of recipes? Ill let you know if it sells for me! 🙂
@@rcec1995 that’s a great idea!
Very nice! How do you keep track of which flavor chapstick is in which box? Or do you sell only one flavor?
@@dianebeaudoin7831 I had them in labeled containers at my craft fair
Such a cute Christmas-cracker chapstick holder! Love these!
Thank you, really appreciate the info ❤
Was there a certain way that you have to tie the ends? I ordered the same one. Just waiting for delivery
@@caroleeritchings230 I did a double knot because the bows wouldn’t stay in
@Messybesscreations thank you ☺️
What kind of die machine do you use?
I have made these with a punch board, this would be so much quicker. When I make them I fold the score lines on the ends before glueing the sides together. They then close easier and stay closed with a bow tie. If you double knot both ends the recipient can't easily open it.
@@beverlyjohnson8796 I have a sizzix big shot
People don’t know how to use junk journals - you might need to give them some ideas with a sample 😊
I love your inventory list - plan to create one using yours as a template. Thanks!
Funny but hershey nugget holders have never done well for me and so many say they are a best seller. I do really well at my shows but not on that item, I guess just not popular in my area or maybe too many others sell. I am so busy I dont have time to walk around and see what others have. This year i added laser cut items in addition to papercrafts and it has gone over well. Good luck!
Thanks for sharing so much great info! A good idea on the freebie gift card holder. I might use that one. ;)
Always like your videos, and creativity. I was a bit disappointed when you shared it’s just a hobby and to get the stuff out of your house. Ouch! I rely on the additional income generated at my craft shows.
@@kathleensheeks8440 I can see how that can be offensive, I apologize for that!
For me it's a mental health activity and personal challenge. I'm unwell with chronic health issues but my husband earns well, so we don't need the money. However , that doesn't mean I shouldn't take part in the business of crafting, even if it is just a hobby. If your goods are well made and appealing they will sell, you just need to find the right market. Being offended is a waste of energy. We're all here for different reasons.
