It looks great, jimbo! I am happy that the sales were good, too.  It is so nice to get out and see people's reaction to your work, isn't it?  Your set up looks really wonderful.  It was a great use of space. :)

Well your display is great and answered a question I have had regarding my own.  I was beginning to think I had too many different types of work to scroll work and folks were over-whelmed and tended to move on.  Apparently not.  Have to try something new...

I think you have to have a good variety to show, this gives you a good chance of a sale and also you can see what is selling and what is not, for example the first 2 shows I sold out of puzzles so made 29 for the last show and only sold 1 also the first 2 I sold around 50 ornaments and the last show sold 2, I was pleased I did not make more
I also like to fill my table up and not leave spaces, I think it gives it a bit of a wow factor

what is that in the vase/jar on the left side of the table?

I agree on the variety, but you never know what people will be up for. A bit of a bet on that, but that makes it exciting for us sellers too.
