Oh, I'm sad to hear that! Hopefully there will really be some custom orders coming in from it at least.
The sign sounds like a good idea for your next stall :)
Maybe do some really small projects that don't take you a lot of time and you can sell for relatively cheap to get people to actually check your wares with an intent of buying? Like, if there are a few cheap little things, it's less intimidating than if you can see that all the items start above what you're comfortable spending on a whim. I don't know if I'm making any sense now, I don't even know what price point your items start at :D

I finally caught up far enough in my youtube feed to see your video of the dresses :) Those are some really gorgeous colours and fabrics :)
(I always try to watch my youtube subscriptions somewhat chronologically, but lately I didn't have much time for it, so I'm really far behind)

That all sounds like you have a ton of good ideas :)

But yeah, that gateway drug idea was what I had in mind as well :D

Oh, are the cards less work than you thought? That's great, at that price point surely people will be less hesitant about buying something :)

I think putting the designs on useful items might also be a good idea for sales - i personally at least would be more inclined to buy something cute which was also a useful item, not some decoration that I'd need to find a good place for.

Have you thought about bookmarks? Should be similar work to cards, but slightly different in who likes them, so if you offer both, more people might be interested. Bookmarks are such a typical little gift to grab because you have someone that you gift a book but you want a little something extra to make it more interesting. I could imagine those selling well.

That sounds really good :) And it's especially nice that you can do them on the side while watching something.

Oh yes, dangly beads sound like a good idea! I was thinking of making the base of the bookmark from cardboard, similarly to cards, but sewing them sounds even nicer, actually.

Hm, I'm not sure what would be better. I don't think stiffening them with card would necessarily make them feel cheap, only if it's badly cut out and doesn't really match the shape of the bookmark as a whole maybe.

That sounds like you're making good progress :) There's still almost a month left until your stall, so I'm sure you can finish what you have planned now. But yeah, you'll need some price tags for your new item categories! :D

Remember me talking about the shirt needing washing? Yeah, it's dry by now, but the stains didn't wash out. Which really confuses me, since it was just a bit of melted butter. But oh well, I'll just have to put some stain remover stuff on them and wash again, I guess...
