Well I ended up losing money at the festival today, while simultaneously getting a sunburn. I met some nice people though! One lady eventually felt so sorry for me she brought me some sunscreen. I wish I had gotten the contact information for two boys I met, Chris and Clint, who make gorgeous wire wrapped stone pendants. I gave them one of my cards, so maybe they'll e-mail me soon and I can get come pictures up!
I only made $7 this time around, but out of the 'expected' 400 people, there were only about 75 people there, almost half of which were vendors themselves or musicians. I am considering making some more masculine jewelry, since almost 2/3 of the people interested mostly in my table were male.
My tiny table set up! I had to make a lot of price tags while I was sitting there soaking in the sun.
See how empty it is? Maybe I will have better luck at a different festival. It was a shame. There were so many good workshops there!
