I decided to try and sell my creations at a holiday mart. I found one that didn't have an expensive entry fee and worked into my schedule. The only part was that it was mostly commercial booths (Mary Kay, Avon, Tastefully Simple, Advocare, and the like.) Made a few sales (mostly woven hearts) but most people there were not interested in handmade items. Had a few people stop and look (most like the baskets and the owl hats) but most didn't seemed interested in much more. So next time, need to participate in one geared toward arts and crafts buyers.
Covered the cost of gas to get there and learned about how I want to set up my booth if I do it again. Life is about the little things and continually learning, at that I did!
Demeter is the Greek Goddess of fertility, grain, and agriculture. Although she is the goddess who taught mankind about agriculture, she is also the goddess responsible for creating winter. A very fitting representation for some who loves winter and lives in Kansas. One definition for charisma is a quality inherent in a thing which inspires great enthusiasm and devotion. I hope that some of my items inspire others like they do me. Check out my work at www.facebook.com/MyDemetersCharisma
