It's finally spring, and looking back to the beginning of the year, there's been progress in the form of projects for my garden art booth and lots of tutorials. If you're thinking of selling at a market or fair, these might be good options for filling out your booth.
Let's have a look at what I've accomplished so far this spring. I think I've done quite well, considering health issues and general laziness. I'm easily side tracked, so keeping focused is hard for me. Luckily, there are some simple yet effective ways to keep the trend going, like these projects.
These are mostly fun and fairly easy crafts, requiring only a few scraps, others are more involved, like building my new studio for a place to make them.
The potting bench was designed and built expressly for my booth to display all the other things, but we put a price on it anyway. You never know when someone will not be able to live without it.
Some of the prices on things are really high, which means that I could only part with it to the right person.
It's possible to use this type of thing as just part of the display, or as an example of the kind of project you like to do. Taking on custom work on a one of basis might give you a whole new direction for your craft.
Other things like the Rustic Elephants, are priced just right. Get some going for your own display of fun things made from junk.
These projects don't need a lot of supplies, they are pretty simple to delve into.
