I finally bought a "tree" to display all my hats for the Waldorf craft fair. I made newborn sized "bug" hats, a toddler viking hat, and children's sized slouchy hats, bear hats, and cute pixie hats! Yep, I've been working up a storm of hats the last few weeks! Good thing I'm a multi-craft crafter or else I might end up with some repetitive injuries. There is definitely a limit to what one can do with a one person craft business!
So hats were my surprise at the craft fair. I sold a few, but not nearly as many as I made, or had hoped to sell. Guess it goes to show you never know what people will buy! I thought they were a "safe" item to make since everyone needs winter hats and cute hats for kids aren't always easy to find. Still deciding if I'll list them on Etsy or will try to sell them through a local retailer. I don't want to list too many items which are outside of my shop focus on special needs toys and products. I've never approached a store owner about carrying my products so it might be a good opportunity to learn about that side of having a craft business. Who knows? I might really like it!
