Craft Show Season!

Well, June has finally arrived and with the warm weather and sunny days comes craft show season! Almost every weekend there seems to be another show or sale on. So why not get in on the action?!

Have you always wondered what it takes to get started in the craft show circuit? How much you should make and how on earth to price it all?

Not to worry, Catherine Winter aka Sailorgirl is back from sailing the Caribbean to answer all your questions! Catherine successfully makes and sells two jewelry lines using commercial beads for one and her own handcrafted lampwork beads and silver components for the other. She spends her summers working the craft fair circuit in Ontario and wraps the season with a booth at the prestigious One-of-a-Kind Craft Show.

Starting this Thursday, Catherine will be teaching her famous How to Start and Run a Successful Microbusiness followed by How to Have a Successful Craft Show on Thursday June 19th. With spaces filling quickly, don't wait until the last minute to register! If you are unable to make it to the the June dates, more classes are scheduled for July and August.

And if you're unable to make it to Toronto, Catherine has come up with a book based on her classes. Start Your Own Jewellery Business gives you the straight dope about making a living from making and selling jewelry in the Canadian craft market.
