Getting Through the Financial Crisis with Craft Fairs

In: Home & Family

14 Jun 2009

Life is hard these days. At the brunt of the recession, many people find themselves jobless; not because they lack the skills, but simply because the companies themselves are cutting on costs. If you find yourself on the chopping board, you lose your job, plain and simple. But that also means that you suddenly have all the time in the world.

Strategic Generosity

Most of the time, people in craft fairs would find it wonderful and simply mind boggling to hang around your booth or your table if you give out freebies in some form or another. Freebies come from the word “free” and by free, it means a no-contract or strings attached form of some deal. Nothing in this world is ever free, which is why the concept of freebies would always attract people no matter how trivial or small it may seem.

Fight Mundane Lifestyles at Craft Shows

Life can be so boring for many grownups. We all have the desire to have fun and play sports like when we were kids, but it’s a fact that we simply cannot afford that luxury anymore. We now have responsibilities to attend to, and financial obligations to sustain. We tend to live lives that border on the mundane because of this, where we live to earn to survive.

Evening Fairs

The fair can actually be quite a magical place when darkness settles in, and the lights twinkle their soft glows like frozen fireflies. I would have never thought that the fair grounds would grow quiet and soft-toned when night came. I had arrived earlier during the day and had scowled in distaste at how busy and impersonal the place seemed to be. For me anyway.

The Tempe Festival of the Arts is a continuously top-ranking art festival in the nation. Granted of this honor of being among the top 20 by Sunshine Artist, it has also received the pinnacle award from the International Festival and events Association.

Chain Mails at the Craft Fair

Back then, when I was in college, I was a theatre student. Every time we had a student-directed show, we used to get together with the teachers and our other mentors right after. We get together so we could analyze how the event went from start until end. This is what we called a postmortem. Let me do something similar right now with the craft fair that I attended.

Spring Bada-Bing Postmortem

In: Arts & Entertainment

29 May 2009

Recently, at around midnight last night, my wife and I got back from the Spring Bada-Bing. I was very highly satisfied with the craft show I just attended; I can honestly say it was a very good show! Of course, we were both very exhausted, and things didn’t go perfectly. Though, we pretty much had a good time and made some sale, all in all.

Ringing In the Traditions Craft Show

In: Arts & Entertainment

28 May 2009

A cacophony of brass bells ring out, as a chorus of, “We Wish You A Merry Christmas”. Swinging the instruments that are the size of milk bottles are six people; each and every one of them had never lifted a bell half an hour ago. They are only some of the hundreds reliving some of England’s forgotten arts on the event called the Lancanshire’s first ever Traditions Craft Fair. This event took place recently at the Lostock Hall High School.

The Ohio State Fair Fine Arts Exhibition

28 May 2009

Anyone who plans to visit the Ohio State Fair would want to make a break from the tired olf carnival rides for something really special; the Fine Arts Exhibition. There will be around 300 pieces in virtually every medium, so the exhibit will be held in the Cox Fine Arts Center and it will have something for everyone in attendance.
