Butt plugs and dilly's under a cloth with an 'adults only' sign are always a good conversation starter.

Just make a good variety of stuff like pendants/various with or without matching earrings, hanging drops, for starters.

Place everything in a suitably sized gift box, if you have an assistant, offer giftwrapping if not get some jazzy little bags to put it in.

Don't forget usage and care instructions for the plugs and dilly's :-)

Holiday Bazaars, craft shows, and street fairs can take years to get set up right. There are many aspects of running a booth from choosing the best inventory mix to knowing just how to display your work and even knowing whether the booth is worth your time and money.

Everything Swampy said is valid (even the dillys depending on the location/marketing mix) Especially some sort of box, bag or wrap! People are gift shopping and may buy just because you include giftwrap.

Aside from jewelry and butt plugs you might want to include ornaments, tree toppers, candle holders, air plant balls, marbles, fridge magnets, and sun catchers to hang in windows. I never make more than 12 of any one thing anymore but always have a few on display or they will never sell.

I'm not even bothering this year. I was reading my town's local Facebook page and cheap ass mofos were complaining about the price of pumpkins at a church fundraiser. Stuff like "Why would I pay that much when I can get them for $5 at Home Depot?"

I recently tried to run a sale on dildos in my Etsy shop, dropping the price $30 in some cases, got lots of visits to the site, folks still aren't buying. It's depressing :(

I'm hoping folks feel a little more spendy after this election debacle, but I'm not holding my breath.

Actually I stopped christmas bussiness involving myselfe to be at stalls and fairs two years ago after some 30 years.

It may be different here Europe,especially in Germany.Very depending on where you are,it´s a way to make some good money.
But as you said there are lots of dumb coments and questions,especially when you´re working at the torch.

Well,but if anybody has any questions about,feel free to ask.

so long,Glassmax
