Advertising a small business

I know I can't do it on here....but wondering how best to go about advertising my small business.

To give you a bit of background I create items and sell them from home mainly via a facebook page which has 1350+ 'likes' at the moment. I also work full time. All my earnings from this business are going into a wedding savings pot.

I currently advertise on local selling sites.
I recently went to a craft fair with a friend but it was very quiet and not worth my time sat all day twiddling my thumbs! Made v.little profit. In fact, I sold far more that day from my facebook page than from sitting at the fair!
I have sold a little on ebay and etsy, but prices have to be slightly higher here to cover fees.

Nearly all the income is coming from facebook.

Any other ideas how to promote? :o x
