Mountain State Apple Festival

I am now in complete belief that this economy is killing us crafters.  I have done this show for 3 years now and it has always been a great show for me.  Again, lots of foot traffic but not many buyers.  And I was not alone - just about every crafter I spoke with did not have a great show like in years past.  But the organizers of this show do such a great job and I have made quite a few friends of other crafters, that I will keep this show on my list.  I have one repeat customer who is on the Board of the Festival and she always comes and finds me and always buys quite a bit.  She made my sales yesterday once again.  The booth fee is $135.00 and the spaces are inside but you can pay for an outside space if you wish to bring your own tent.

There were two other glass people there.  Their prices were considerably higher than mine and although I didn't speak with them, I suspect the didn't have a good weekend either.
