So, the craft fair was this last weekend. I promised myself I wouldn't be bummed if I didn't sell a lot. I guess that wasn't exactly true. I'm bummed. It is kinda lame to spend all that time, effort and money only for it to tank.
I am going to try alternative means of selling my product, I just wish I didn't have to resort to that. It was the wrong demographic I think. Lots of mommies of kids, not babies. And old ladies who could do it themselves. So, my choices are to keep on or give up. I kinda wanna give up. I kinda wanna just forget about it.
Maybe I'm not designed to have a small business. Maybe I am the kind of person who is designed to work for other people who have it figured out. I am very good at doing what I am told. Always have been. Haven't really ever stepped out. The time that I do, I feel that I have been crushed. If you're wondering, I sold two aprons and one blanket. I guess people don't want quality. that's unfortunate.
I want something that is going to last, something that won't fall apart the first time I use it. I guess though you can get a reasonably quality item at wal mart for cheap cause they outsource. If I paid a kid two bucks an hour to sew for me, I could charge less too. Oh well.
Life goes on, I will sell them, or at the very least give them as gifts. It will all be ok, it's just hard to see when things are so foggy.
