Yeah, good luck Tommy! What and where is it? I'm doing the Ventura County Blues Festival at Moorpark College, just ten minutes away.
I hope we both do well!

Thank you all for your well wishes and support.  The craft fair for me was a HUGE success.  It far exceeded my wildest expectations.  I can't say any one thing was the best selling.  I sold a little bit of everything.  The Levi Knife that I made sold within the first few min of the opening at 8:00 AM.  I got $120 for that piece.  Two of the 3 bowls I made sold, a lot of the baskets, 3d birdhouse ornaments, portraits.  All and all after I paid my booth fee of $75 (20' X 21') I pocketed $760.00  I'll be back next month.

Dan, it was in Torrance.

Newfie, you can get the pattern here from Diana Thompson.  The people really liked them.  I'm sure they will do well around Oct when the Christmas season rolls around. I made them out of a really cheap piece of 2x2 pine and was able to get 6 I think from one piece costing about $3.00.  I only took two of them and  sold them for $10 each.  Here is the link to the pattern.  I might upgrade the wood next time.
