Ehem. Well, chalk that one up to experience. At an event aimed at primary school aged children, handmade silver jewellery wasn't ever going to be a raging success. The lady next to me did very well with childern's books, though. Eh well, at least I figured out that in terms of display, preparation, etc. I had done very well. Next time a ring display where people can try them on a bit easier, that's about it. At least I'll have loads to list on Etsy now.

And now it's the middle of the night and I can't sleep so I'm off to lurk in the Etsy forums...

I had one of those recently. And you're right. You just take it for what it's worth - a little experience. I hope the next one goes better for you. Your jewelry is really amazing!

Bummer it turned out to be a kiddie fair. Live and learn, eh?

Oh, sorry to hear that. I've been there with some wooden Christmas decorations I made a couple of years ago - the family selling second-hand videos beside me did a roaring trade!
