Hi Jen:

I love this !

I only wish I could manage my time so that my visits here could be more than they have been. ( is my guilt emulating here :) )

Seriously though this is a wonderful idea, and in sharing ones talents and artisitic endeavors.

Should all so desire, invest in AMI'S MARKETING MANUAL. It is filled with information we all need and will show you what is needed for the next wave of consumers, those due here on the Internet over the next five years.

To your success,

Joe Buccheri

Hello All,

This is wonderful!! Thanks for starting this forum. I, too am a crafter. I would like to introduce you all to www.craftlister.com and www.eventlister.com. These are kind of sister sites that give detailed information on shows in the US. I highly recommend them.

I would love to show you some of my work, but I still cannot understand how to post pictures. My work is not currently on a website, so I need to figure out how to upload pictures from my hard drive (if that's possible). Occasionally, I will sell some things on ebay as I haven't done a craft show in some time. Cross stitch and polymer clay are my crafts of choice. Although I also love to paint and have painted a mural or two. The problem for me is as others have mentioned, is inventory. When you make items that take a long time to make, it's difficult to produce enough inventory for a show.

There's that Law of Attraction working again!! Just last night I was talking about wanting to make some beads. Then I started thinking about researching how to promote shows myself.

Let's keep this going!! I Love it!!
