hey all my cc friends. first of all thanks so much for all the advice you guys gave me about my craft show! i apprieciate it so much
i took some cakes to display, and some cookie bouquets to display, and i took some simple decorated cookies and cupcakes to sell. i made about $45.00 off those, which at least covered my rent expense. BUT i had a drawing to give away a free birthday cake, up to $50.00 and told everyone that signed up that if they put there birthday months down on the form, i would call them on those months and offer my services and also offer a discount. I GOT 72 NAMES!!! most of them listed at least two birthday months. so, they are all expecting me to call them on the months that they have birthdays. wow! so excited!!!!!!
i also got an order for a birthday cake for this wed. its a $45.00 cake

very excited!!!
i have two more craft shows in the next two weekends.
husband is already counting the money i'll make.hahaha especially since he is usually counting how much money i have spent. hahahahha

Good for you! Glad it worked out so well for you, considering you were worried about the bakery being there too!
