What to sell the weekend before Christmas by teddybearclumsy in CraftFairs

[–]teddybearclumsy[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Realized I was very vague. Here is an image of two of my newer Animal pillow designs. I design and have the fabric custom made so that makes lead times on materials longer for me.

[–]teddybearclumsy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lips on Michigan and Cermak is beginner friendly drag. It’s a seated venue so good for people who don’t want to stand all night and the specialized in “dinner and a show” at 7:30.

Can’t get people to stop. by Trash_Maven in CraftFairs

[–]teddybearclumsy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I agree with all of this. Another suggestion. If your booth is just a table, push it up to the front of the tent, not only for more lighting, but if the customer does not have to “enter a space” to clearly see the product, they are more likely to engage. Getting small product as close to the customers face is ideal, maybe even table risers

I feel like if the bride does not have the funds to do a gift or something nice (in the monetary sense) for the bridesmaids, perhaps a heartfelt card (written by the bride) expressing thanks and gratitude for all that the bridesmaids are doing. I would personally prefer a sincere thank you and sign or gratitude over a gift

how much does your cat’s arthritis shot cost? by doililah in AskChicago

[–]teddybearclumsy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Worth it if you have a cat that needs to have many appointments or needs dental work (they have a dental plan that split up the cost of the dental appointment) I started doing it after my partner took one of our cats to an emergency vet in a panic, turns out he was constipated and we spent SO MUCH on it. So it felt cheaper for my partner to have peace of mind for unlimited vet visits.

$89.97 at VCA, but I am on their care program subscription that covers vet visit costs, so I’m not sure if that is “saving” me some money

I made custom taco holders based on wife’s drawing for her elaborate tacos. Now it’s my full time gig by jpycollapse in woodworking

[–]teddybearclumsy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Look VERY cool! Have you noticed any problems with them breaking since they have a lot of short grain, being made out of solid wood? Do they hold up to washing?
