No Space Is Too Small To Let Your Creativity Shine
The typical craft fair booth size is a 10 feet by 10 feet space, but it varies by event and how much space you are willing to pay for. Don’t let the size limit your creativity — just think outside of the “booth” a little bit.
Turn Up The Color
Neutral tones are all the rage right now. From pastels to beige (and even “greige”), it can be easy to blend in with other booths. Try adding a pop of color by painting your stands, peg boards, or adding a colorful banner.
Say Cheese!
Adding a photo-op as part of your display is a great way to draw attention to your booth and get free organic promotion online. Be sure to add your social media handle or a branded hashtag to the photo-op so other people can recognize your business.
Hype Up Your Handouts
Having a fun handout can go a long way. They make your booth memorable and draw people in. Plus, handing out coupons or online discount codes gives people a reason to shop with you in the future! That’s how you keep people coming back.
Elevate Your Apparel
Be mindful of what you wear to a craft show. You will want to come off as a professional, and what better way to make a first impression than with your outfit! Branding shirts or hats, wearing a colorful jumpsuit, or throwing on a fun apron can help you look cohesive with your booth.
Loading your display in and out can be a lot of work, so try having one outfit you wear during an event and another you wear during setup and take down. That way your customers will always see you at your best!
Let’s Get Digital
If possible, adding a small tablet, computer, or tv screen to your booth display can catch someone’s attention in a crowd. You can show off your crafting process, additional products, or let customers complete online custom purchases. This is especially helpful to incorporate into a booth at a central check out show where you are not manning your own booth the whole time.
Add Personality To Your Packaging
You know how people walking around the mall can see where someone else shopped based on the bags they are carrying? You can create that same effect at a craft show by wrapping up purchases in branded packaging.
Show Off Your Craft With A Demo
People are captivated by the magic of watching a professional show off their skills. Consider working on some of your handcrafted products while you are at your booth. Not only does it help you finish some products, it draws people in and allows them to connect with you and your craft.
Invite Others To Create
Having a form of interactive artwork in your display is a sure way to attract people to your booth. Plus, you can end up having a cool art piece by the end!
