  • Hi everyone :wave:

    I am doing my very first craft fair in a couple of weeks, and am quite nervous! I am taking:

    Snowman Soup
    Flannel Cupcakes
    Gift Tags
    Pint of Socks
    Nappy Cakes
    Pamper Cakes
    Elf Poop
    Santas Kisses
    Reindeer Food
    Christmas Cards
    Cookie Cutters

    Anything that has food in it, I have written on the back of the tag the allergy info and the best before date. Is there anything else that I need to think about??

    Here are a couple of photos, any feedback would be great!

    Hi,
    I am after a bit of help I'm afraid. I too am doing a xmas fair for the first time on the 19th Dec. It is specifically a food fair. I am definately taking snowman soups and am hoping they will sell well. I am planning on making truffles and sweets to sell in small bags aswell as gingerbread type tree decs nicely decorated. I'm figuring 5/6 in a bag for £1?
    Also maybe little muslin parcels with mulled wine spices in and sugarpaste decs to put on xmas cakes. I have no idea on prices really, I thought smaller things for cheap would sell better??
    Does anyone have any other suggestions for foodie ideas. Also I have 20+ small ramakins about 2in wide and 1in deep and would love to use these in some way but can't think how to fill them?? Any ideas would be really appriciated. Thanks in advance.

    How do you make a bag/purse/wallet stand upright (as opposed to a flat one); are there are video/written tutorials on that?

    snowman soup -hot chocolate, mini marshmallows, choc chips in a cone bag with a candy cane.

    Flannel cupcakes- flannel rolled up to look like a cupcake in a bun case
    Pint of socks- pint glass with 2 pairs black socks and pair of white socks or white flannel in to look like a pint

    nappy cakes- looks like a cake made out of nappy's and toiletries

    Elf/reindeer/snowman poop- cello bag with either choc covered nuts/raisins/white marshmallows

    Santa kisses- red lip sweets in a cello bag

    i think i got it all
