Hiya Sally, I used Serif Page Plus, you can download it free from the internet cos I haven't got another graphics package, they were really easy to make, downloaded a few christmassy free fonts from the internet as well (the title on each tag is Fontdinerdotcom Sparkly). The labels are double sided, they've got my details on the back and the ingredients of the item.
Kayl, the cups are from ebay, they aren't cheap though as you have to buy the cups and the lids seperately, I think it worked out about £10 for 50 cups and lids. If you want the name of the seller, let me know.
Shezmit, I've done a few of each thing, about 20 of each? I have no idea on numbers but hoping that I will sell quite a few. I'm making some more reindeer food this morning before I go as I'm expecting that to sell out rather quickly so I should have at least 35 of them. The rest, I've just made what my budget has allowed, once everything was made up thats it, can't afford to keep getting another jar of drinking chocolate, another packet of jelly beans etc. That's probably no help whatsoever, and I'm sure other people who have done more craft fairs than me will be able to help you more with that one
You're so very special, I wish I was special :dance:0 -
Hiya Moosetastic
Thanks for that.
I've actually got Serif Page Plus on my comp, but still can't see the Christmassy stuff that you've found, even when I download new designs??

Hi Moose, hope its all going well for you. Can I be nosy and ask how much in total you spent on the goods, and how much each item sold for? It'll be handy to know for next year seeing as I'm too late this year, and I reckon this kind of stuff will sell really well. Sorry, hope you don't mind me pinching your ideas for next year.....Banana LoversBuy your bananas in bunches of 5 on Sunday. Then arrange them in order of ripeness and write a day of the week on each banana in felt pen, Monday on the ripest, Friday on the greenest to save time making those decisions on a hectic weekday morning0
