I think I will concentrate on spreading the word about my pet portraits in my local area and selling them on Etsy etc. I will do a few crafts fairs if they are nearby and don't have a high overhead but I'm not going to drive to the faraway ones as I will get a bit narked if I don't sell anything.Studio Kaufmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17594457934627321408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1651689109551901144.post-31268124063337111552013-12-11T00:44:13.663-08:002013-12-11T00:44:13.663-08:00Hi Emma
Thanks for coming over to Bath Bomb Creati...Hi Emma<br />Thanks for coming over to Bath Bomb Creations blog! Wow, love your pet drawing and paintings. I have been getting ours done over the months plus had one done for Dad.We are huge animal lovers. We did our last fayre in Dec 2012 but decided to stop because of petrol, plus sometimes organizers tend not to advertise ... we did a fayre in a town hall run by a council in a different county to where we are and the organizer was told she wasn't allowed to print leafelts and put signs up - apart from a childs chlk board. no one knew we were there so we sis and I took it in turns to go outside and tell people we are there and handed out biz cards. We made our money but having paid for the event and then to get customers well, what can I say ...<br /><br />To keep overheads down we said goodbye to the website and it wasn't working carriage wise anyway. We concerntrate online (etsy, folksy, ebay and the blog). Ray makes the luxuries and pet care and I push us. Via online a store found us so we sell in there now too. Plus another company with three branches and a view of setting up an online shop has approached us. And being in Style at Home recently has helped too - I thought to hell with it and mentioned our lip balms as crackers gifts and they loved it and were kind enough to add our biz name as they liked our products. So for us, online has worked better than fayres.<br /><br />We also tried school fayres and the kids loved the bath bomb mix and match but then ours has a shelf life so if they don't sell... Summer fetes were a no ... families go for the tombolas etc rather than the craft side.<br /><br />What will you do? <br /><br />I found our pet artist via FB. <br />lesley x<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11536463971373505552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1651689109551901144.post-74138897534377974282013-12-10T12:12:57.431-08:002013-12-10T12:12:57.431-08:00oh, your owls are adorable!! i'd love to see a...oh, your owls are adorable!! i'd love to see all those little critters close up.

Your animals are very cute, and owls are so popular still. Just scrolled down and how lovely to see you are a fellow cat person. We have five cats and I foster for a local branch of Cats Protection; two teeny ten-week old ginger and white girls are with us at the moment.
