My Warmest Feelings and Thoughts are that having such a Wonderful Scrolling Family that have experienced or shared feelings is worth being a part. In a nut shell....
I only do One Show each year. Nov. Next year.... Take this years left over scroll projects. Give childerns toys a try. Decide on a eatable product. My Wife will find a Craft Hobby especially for girls n Women. Hows this sound? LOL Danny :+}

GB and Others I am really starting to get the same feeling about if I really, truely want to spend my time attending Craft Shows. It is a big low when so many people stop by and offer me Great Compliments and make me feel good, but when so, so many do this and keep walking its just a Big Let Down. Think 4 years is about enough. Family, Friends, Church and maybe a special order should make me happy.
Chelcass .... I couldn't wait for Santa, but my wife was there when I made the trade.
The Gal that made the (its not only a Purse. I call it a medium size bag) purse even
put a Dollar Bill in one of the pockets. Now wasn't that a nice thing to do?
Dan.... You have always impressed me as has others that live in a bigger area/state or what not that do well with their Craft Shows. Somehow I feel lil cities (which there are the majority of) just do not have people that appreciate Scrolling. Maybe where you are people believe a dollar is less value than most other places. Don't know.... Reading posts like yours Dan makes me feel Proud to be a part of this Scrolling family. Congrats.... Anyway.... Danny :+}

Pumpkin Logs as the couple calls them are really made of Pumpkin like cake that has some kind of I think cream cheese filling. Looks like the pumkin bread and filling is rolled into a tight tube like look. They were offering lil samples all day. Lots of takers including myself. Very Yummy.... The Logs were actually kept in a little fridge, so guess must keep them cold. Anyway they sold very well.
Think I did see couple booths selling real nice looking lil ornaments. Bet they weren't hand made. Don't know how well they sold.
Think I (we) need to get into making a product that a WOMEN or young girl likes OR maybe CHILDREN.
The gal next to me selling the purses traded me my scroll craft for a purse I wanted for my wife. She had them decorated with all kinds of different things from Sports to Hunting to Fishing to different special occasions. She did Great.... Danny :+}

Good Morning to Everyone....
This was my Forth year at the same place. Heard there were between
1 and 2 thousand peoples that came in. Saturday was a Steady flow of many.
Mostly Lookers and many, many Admirers. Also men that just wanted to yack
about their scrolling history. Heres my estimations.... 80% Women. 10% Childern that just wanted to play with the crafts and maybe 10% men. Had many, many peoples that just wanted to tell me how Beautiful my work looked. Majority of these just eventually kept walking. Bad year to sell Christmas Ornaments. Took a lot of your advice from looking at my ornament display and put the price of each at $4.00.
Well after a half day with only selling ONE. I dropped the price down to $2.00 just to hopefully be able to sell them. Well couldn't go any lower and I came home with around 70. I did put out a smaller display with what I consider the simpler ones to cut for a buck. Out of around 40 I came home with 20. Terrible huh? I did after Sundays selling come home with a profit of $318.00. I'm thankful for this anyway.
Last year was a profit of $601.00 and to me lesser quality items.
Just a lil note.... Did a lot of talking and looking and for the majority of sellers the big sellers were Womens items. Gal next to me made Purses our of Goodwill jeans and Walmart patches and was selling them for $17.00. Her husband told me just Saturday alone she sold 139 of of um. The people across from me was selling Pumpkin Logs (bout a foot long by 4" diameter) for $12.00 each. Said Saturday he sold 47 of um. Sunday I could see him bagging log after log all day. Another woodworker made lil childerns wood things. Potty chair, doll high chair, lil benches,
rocking horses etc. and sold out of some items Saturday. He had scroll work displayed. All Fancy Patterns that all had the little clock in them. Didn't sell a one.
I am SERIOUSLY considering getting into another craft for next years show and only cut Scroll projects for Family and Friends. Sorry this is so long. Danny :+}

Not being really savvy on the PC all I can do is explain my problem. It has to do with when I log into a site and was getting this lit window that asked if I wanted to save and always said YES. Well had lots of saved passwords and ID's. Yesterday tried to long into Yahoo the normal way I have used forever where I click on the ID with just typing the first letter (d) and I would be give a selection of my wife of myself. Well nothing happens now. Same with Facebook and other sites. Could someone tell me what to do? Help.... Danny :+(

Steves Nativity Scene was a Happy project this time of year. As I kept cutting each piece I slowly started to get a feeling of actually being there with Joseph and Mary while baby Jesus laid there in the manger. My Wife decided this scene would be kept for our Christmas display each year. Thanks for viewing. Danny :+}
