My only suggestion is: people shouldn't question what something's for. Have a leaf sprout tied around something, have a bowl sitting in a bowl cozy, etc. It will also provide a more dynamic display which will draw more people in. I hope you have a ton of fun and have a very profitable market! Sending all the positive vibes ❤
PUT👏YOUR👏 BUISNESS👏CARDS👏AT👏THE👏FRONT👏!! I used to be a facepainter at markets all the time, and never had time to buy anything so I would always always always grab a business card if they where there !!
Looks good. Wish you luck at your market. My only suggestion would be; maybe for the more smaller items, so they don't get lost on the table. How about like a tier basket, like for fruit/cupcakes? Each layer you can fan out the items, like the bookmarks.
So excited for you!!! You are, however, wasting a lot of valuable space!! Build UP! You can get crates really inexpensively at Home Depot if you have those stores around you - or Lowes, or Joanne Fabrics on sale. Or thrift stores sometimes have them. I usually pay about $10 for them. Thrift stores, garage sales, Facebook marketplace are all great places for items for display. Binder clips are great for clipping items to the front of your table, but as you are using a tent don't hesitate to hang things on the tent - it will help draw people in. I'm curious if you have a tent why you are only allowed one table and not be able to utilize the entire 10 x 10 space? The chalkboard sign legs have slits in them - the slits are meant to join together - hope that makes sense. Bookmark corners will be great in a cute little basket. And FYI baby wipes are great for cleaning off the chalkboard signs and putting new pricing on them. A crate with the opening towards you and the bottom of the crate facing out is great to keep your cash box in and then on top can be your checkout stand. You can put a sign on the front with your business name. For the bowl cozy - have a bowl with to show it. Ice cream cozy - empty ice cream container (cleaned) and for the makeup bag - put some makeup in it and have it open. Best of luck!!! Hope I was able to offer some helpful tips!!
My only suggestion would be to have a more tiered or structured setup for the sewn items like the pouches and bowl cozies to add height and draw the eye in from further away. Sometimes, if everything is just at table level, people walking by don't see anything 'of interest' and just keep going.
Hi! I also have the keychain stands you have. To save some space, you can turn them sideways, and put hooks on the front and back, and stagger them so the stuff can be seen better, not clumped. You can put one at the other end of the table for your plant sprouts. Another space saver, for the makeup bags, you could make a bunch of swatches, of all the patterns of fabric you have made them in, and put them on a big binder ring for people to look through. I've done 5 markets now, and it's never easy for me to figure up my set up. Good luck, all your hard work is Omazing 😊
I love the fact that you didn’t buy a bunch of plastic crap to display things. Very organic! I think your display looks wonderful and inviting. Yay for the progress report. Thanks and good luck.
Suggestions I thought of are: - Try to have an additional row of the coaster sets behind the display ones-- people generally hesitate to grab display pieces which may deter them from buying - Maybe get more layered/tiered display pieces (like acrylic display risers on Amazon, or even cheap little Walmart crates flipped on the side and stacked, or upside down as a riser) - You could totally try displaying a leaf sprout tied around the jewelry hanger! It can help people visualize it better (I'm still working on a good way to display my headwear accessories...) - Never be afraid to put your prices in multiple places! Personally, I have small tags attached to each individual product and also larger signs (I've never done a 1-table market set-up, though) listing the same thing-- helps to reduce crowding in one area or people walking away because they can't read the price signs from where they are Overall, looks great for a 1-table set-up! I'd probably lose my mind trying to configure my stuff for one table, so kudos to you, haha
It looks amazing and I'm so excited for your first market!! You're going to have so much fun :) Like others have said, I think putting your items on display using props (a book, a cup of noodles/empty ice cream pint, leaf sprout tied to something, maybe WEAR a bandanna you've made, etc.) will help those who aren't as familiar with crochet and yarn crafts to see and really appreciate your work.
Hi! I would love more pattern reviews! I think another blanket pattern review video would be really cool like the star blanket you did. Also, I love watching your vids while I am crocheting my 2024 temperature blanket!
It looks so good! I think that if you would put one of the bookmarks on a book and a cup in one of the cupcozies it would be more clear as to what the products are for and people might want to buy them more easily :)
I think you should have a bucket full of makeup bags, and only a few makeup bags on the table. But if you want to, suggest that you do have more fabric options to the customers. And also maybe same for the bookmarks.
I love watching the set up process. 🤩 I did events and merchandised my parents antique store for years. It was my favorite part. How fun to see you workout your set up!
One tip that i did for my first market was as i made items, i would write the price after and create a price list spreadsheet. that way i had full access to it if i ever forgot what the price was and underprice my items by accident. definitely recommend it!
As someone who enjoys craft markets, I think your set up is really cute. Lots of different heights to look at and variety of items :) I’m excited for you!
Suggestion if no one else said it... if you can find boxes or stacking tables to elevate stuff in the back it will also give you more room to display. This is what I used to do when I sold my crafts at markets or fairs. 🧡
I saw a table where there was a little crochet Dino in jail and a sign that said "pay his bail" and the Dino had a speech bubble saying "I have a wife and kids" and I am literally counting the days to my market to do that 😂😂
Look around your house for some paperback books. Wrap 'em up in some wrapping paper 'cause you want to use them as "risers" in 2s or 3s around the table top to keep your place from looking boring. ~ & you don't have to stack 'em up too neatly - keeps things interesting. You sure were productive!
I have the same mini chalkboards! The legs sit in each other (there should be a slit on the legs to shove them together) and the actual chalkboard rests on the curved part if that makes sense ❤❤
love it! the only thing i'd change is the amount of makeup bags cs right now it looks a bit overwhelming. Or if you still want to display them all, maybe flip a crate so that you can put makeup bags in the crate and on the top shelf, hope that makes sense lol :) anyways love ur vids!!
Looks good, i think it would be nice to bring a book and showcase how the bookmarks work. I wouldnt be able to tell it was a bookmark if I didnt watch alle your videos;) Gooooood luck!!!
This is a great spread for your first show! I hope it went well ☺️ Some tips for future shows that I would offer: think about what brings YOU into a table at a fair and emulate that. For me, seeing things at different heights on the table entices me in, rather than just things laying out on the table. Having some risers (even just dollar store baskets upside down work) acts to add some visual dynamics. Also props! For the bookmarks, maybe have a book out to show people how they work. Seeing a book on the table while I’m walking past quickly immediately registers as something I like, whereas seeing a square of fabric out of the corner of my eye isn’t gonna draw me in. Thats just an example, but things like that!! Could also add an empty ice cream pint to show how the cozies work.. that kinda stuff. Again though, it really looks great for your first show (: ❤
The crochet half of the table looks amazing!! I think the sewing side looks a little messy/overwhelming though. Maybe less to display and putting the bookmarks in a little basket could help. Also, what about your little octopus Squishies!!
U should only have a few makeup bags so people don't feel overwhelmed and try to make sure to get something that helps people come to your table, something with height I've only done 1 craft market but I learned that people really like to be able to pick a go so it would be best to have some of the smaller things with less options up front because some kids might like them too take more crochet stuff out it will help and sorry if this is long hope u have fun make sure to bring snacks and drinks
It looks so good! Is there a way to print out a QR code for your Etsy and frame it so people can just scan it if they want to buy more? I’m going to start an Etsy soon and sign up for a market and I’m thinking of doing that
Yo idk if you’re already at the market but I was thinking cause you said in your last video that you’re selling the basket the leafsprouts are in you might wanna put a sign on it so people know otherwise it just seems like storage , also people might hold back on buying it cause it’s holding stuff so maybe have a backup like a bowl or non selling basket Also maybe it’s a good idea to put small paper tags with the prices on the crochet items (threading a small string or a bit of yarn with a tag or piece of paper ) but that’s a lot of work so I’d get if you don’t but I feel like for shy or anxious people it leaves less questions so they don’t feel awkward asking in case they can’t tell the prices I wish you good luck with the market either way :)
I've been wondering how to price my items. Anyone have any ideas? They are granny square blankets. I have no way to show them here But they all are about 49x49

You should tie a lead sprout to your keychain thing you're using for the mushroom to people can see it in use!

HEY GIRL the chalkboards I have those same ones. The wooden legs slide into each other and create a stand for the board. I hope this helps
I am SO INVESTED in this market
ME TOO!!

I love the flower headband. I really want to try out the pattern.❤❤❤

agree with 👇also have a book for the bookmark. Perhaps wear one of your bandanas. Looks super cute.
thank u for bringing us along for the whole journey as you've prepped for the market , always love seeing behind the scenes like this !!!!!!
why am i literally so in love with you 😭😭

looks great! i might be wrong but i think bringing a book and putting a bookmark on the front or something to demo how they work might be nice!
As someone who enjoys craft markets, I think your set up is really cute. Lots of different heights to look at and variety of items :) I’m excited for you!
i cant wait to see how much money you make! also i love your videos so much paige i literally watch them everyday!!!!!❤
I really want to do a market this year, you’re motivating me more, I’m just so anxious I’m such an introvert lol

I’m so excited for the market!
set up is banger! hope u have a good market 🧡
it feels illegal to be this early
i love your vids and im obsessed with this craft market
You could have a picnic blanket or mat Down in front of your table and put some of your stuff on that.
I love your long videos so so much 😍
I have the same mini chalkboards! The legs sit in each other (there should be a slit on the legs to shove them together) and the actual chalkboard rests on the curved part if that makes sense ❤❤
So cute! Those little mushroom bois are adorable 🥰 Godd luck with the market 😊
Looks good Paige. Best of luck with the sales. 😉
You should use the white crate. It'll give you height & you can put stuff in and on top. That'll give you extra space
The little legs for the chalk boards connect and hold the board like an easel
love it! the only thing i'd change is the amount of makeup bags cs right now it looks a bit overwhelming. Or if you still want to display them all, maybe flip a crate so that you can put makeup bags in the crate and on the top shelf, hope that makes sense lol :) anyways love ur vids!!
It looks great. Once again good luck I have done markets and it looks great
Looks good, i think it would be nice to bring a book and showcase how the bookmarks work. I wouldnt be able to tell it was a bookmark if I didnt watch alle your videos;) Gooooood luck!!!

Again though, it really looks great for your first show (: ❤
As some others said... Show what the bookmarks on a book, a bowl in of the cozies etc...
Loveeeee your videos so so so much girl!
Hiii I am sub'ing you😅
First!! I love your videos ❤❤❤ your my fave TH-camr and I watch the same videos all the timeeee
The crochet half of the table looks amazing!! I think the sewing side looks a little messy/overwhelming though. Maybe less to display and putting the bookmarks in a little basket could help.
Also, what about your little octopus Squishies!!
Looks so good a small suggestion you could use a book to display the bookmarks makes it more obvious
looks great thanks for the inspiration
Best of luck!

I've been soo exited for This video! ❤And it is finally time! ❤ Wish you big luck to The market❤
It looks so good! Is there a way to print out a QR code for your Etsy and frame it so people can just scan it if they want to buy more? I’m going to start an Etsy soon and sign up for a market and I’m thinking of doing that
Yo idk if you’re already at the market but I was thinking cause you said in your last video that you’re selling the basket the leafsprouts are in you might wanna put a sign on it so people know otherwise it just seems like storage , also people might hold back on buying it cause it’s holding stuff so maybe have a backup like a bowl or non selling basket
Also maybe it’s a good idea to put small paper tags with the prices on the crochet items (threading a small string or a bit of yarn with a tag or piece of paper ) but that’s a lot of work so I’d get if you don’t but I feel like for shy or anxious people it leaves less questions so they don’t feel awkward asking in case they can’t tell the prices
I wish you good luck with the market either way :)
Fabric samples for the different sewn items instead of displaying every item, to safe space on your tabel :o)
Dang 39 seconds is crazzzyyyyy. i love your content btw paige!! ❤❤
GOOOD LUUUCK TOMARROWWWWW :P
Hi Paige I love your channel could do a tutorial on how you crochet your bandanas for some reason iam struggling
omg ive never been so early! i LOVE your vidsss!!!
Yeaah good morning guuurl 💅✨
Morning girlie!❤
This looks super cute! Just curious, are you not displaying your little impkins?
I would put jewelry up high on the table somewhere, so they won’t get lost behind peoples legs.
Maybe some octopus guys sharing half & half w the mushroom plushies?
i think an impkin can fit sitting in front of the wristlets!
my queen 🤎
YES 👏🏽
Idk why but i get Billie eilish vibes from you😭❤️(i love Billie and you)
Bird: Hey!!!! Paige!!!! Listen!!!!!
Paige: hi bird
Bird: Hi!!!
Can you do a video of Taylor swift ttpd crochet patterns?
you didnt add the crochet keychains to the wristlet stand T-T
I sent out a big box of fabric. Will be at your P.O. Box today
😊
I dont know if your allowed or can but if you could, could you film the market
I've been wondering how to price my items. Anyone have any ideas? They are granny square blankets. I have no way to show them here But they all are about 49x49
HIII
Wow I’m first
ur hair got so long!!!!!!
❤ this is such a good setup but I think that there are a little to many makeup bags on the table so maybe do the same thing with 🪴 😊love your vids
