I am fortunate to have for a friend Pam Alloway-Mueller. Pam sells Beijo handbags at shows and was kind enough to allow me to share her table at the Taylor High School prom fashion show.
It was a good way to force me to do things I've been avoiding--pricing pieces, etc. Despite my background in as a financial aid administrator, I find "bead administration" to be far less engaging. But with the show looming, I spent an entire day pricing, making tags, gathering items I thought I would need to sell at a show.
I sold two things and received many compliments on my work which was very encouraging. I would like to do more shows like this, although I think I will need to bite the bullet regarding credit card sales. No one carries cash anymore thanks to the pervasiveness of debit card machines at checkouts. Let's face it--we've all been caught so cash deficient we used our debit cards for a $2.00 sale. :D
