Introduction
Welcome to Brenna M & Co’s craft fair vlog, where we take you along on our journey at the West Fargo Street Fair. In this vlog, we’ll show you our preparation and booth setup, discuss the unique ‘Z layout’ we used, showcase our booth setup, and share our experiences throughout the day. So grab a cup of coffee or tea, sit back, and join us in this exciting adventure!
Preparation and Booth Setup
Before heading to the street fair, we gathered and organized all the supplies we needed for the craft fair. We made sure to double-check our inventory and ensure that everything was packed and ready to go. After loading up our supplies, we embarked on our journey to the West Fargo Street Fair location.
Upon arriving at the street fair, we were filled with excitement and anticipation. We quickly unloaded our supplies and began setting up our booth. We carefully arranged our tables, shelves, and signage to create an inviting and attractive display. As our booth started to take shape, we couldn’t help but feel a sense of pride in our hard work.
The ‘Z Layout’
One of the highlights of our booth setup was the use of the ‘Z layout’. This unique setup allowed us to maximize the space in our booth and create a visually appealing display. The ‘Z layout’ involved arranging our merchandise in a zigzag pattern, with different sections dedicated to specific products.
The benefits of the ‘Z layout’ were immediately apparent. Not only did it create a visually interesting aesthetic, but it also allowed customers to easily navigate through our booth and explore our products. This setup encouraged interaction and made it easier for customers to find what they were looking for.
Brenna and Cassie’s Booth Setup
Brenna and Cassie took great care in setting up their booth to showcase their craft items in the most attractive way possible. They strategically placed their items to create a visually pleasing display that would catch the attention of passersby.
Tables and shelves were arranged to highlight their products, ensuring that each item had its own space to shine. Signage was strategically placed to provide information about the products and prices. They also added decorative elements such as lights and flowers to enhance the overall ambiance of the booth.
Discussion about Weather and Oreo Frappe
As we were setting up our booth, we couldn’t help but discuss the weather. We hoped for a rain-free day to attract more visitors to the craft fair. The slight sprinkling we experienced earlier caused some concern, but we remained optimistic and carried on with our setup.
To cool off and energize ourselves, we decided to indulge in some Oreo frappes from McDonald’s. We couldn’t resist sharing our love for this refreshing drink and highly recommended it to our viewers.
Outfit of the Day Segment
In the midst of all the setup hustle and bustle, we took a moment to showcase our outfits of the day. Brenna rocked a stylish ensemble, featuring American Eagle shorts, a new t-shirt from her collection, Doc Martens, and Air Forces. Cassie looked equally fashionable in her outfit, showing off her own personal style. We emphasized the importance of presenting an on-brand image at craft fairs and events.
Start of the Fair and Good Sales
As the craft fair officially opened, we couldn’t contain our excitement. The visitor traffic exceeded our expectations, and we were thrilled to welcome so many potential customers. The first hour saw a flurry of activity, and our booth was buzzing with sales.
The positive sales experience continued throughout the day, with customers showing great interest in our products. We interacted with visitors, explained the features of each item, and shared the story behind our crafts. It was incredibly rewarding to see our hard work pay off and witness the joy on customers’ faces as they made their purchases.
Food Trucks and People
One of the highlights of any fair or market is the food trucks. We took a break from our booth to explore the various food options available at the West Fargo Street Fair. From mouth-watering burgers to tempting desserts, the food trucks offered a wide range of culinary delights.
As we strolled through the fair, we couldn’t help but people-watch. It was fascinating to see the diverse crowd and observe the interactions happening all around us. The fair was alive with energy and a sense of community.
Afternoon Slowdown but Good Sales
As the afternoon approached, we noticed a slight slowdown in visitor traffic. However, despite the lull, our sales remained steady and strong. We capitalized on this opportunity to engage with customers on a deeper level, sharing stories about our crafts and cultivating a sense of connection. It was during these quieter moments that we truly appreciated the experience and the positive outcome of taking the risk to participate in the craft fair.
Booth Breakdown and Profit Calculation
At the end of the day, it was time to break down our booth. We carefully packed our remaining merchandise and dismantled our setup. Thanks to our efficient organization, the breakdown process only took about 30 minutes.
Once back home, we took some time to calculate our profits. We were pleasantly surprised by the results. Not only did we cover the cost of the booth fee, but we also made approximately ten times that amount in sales. It was a testament to the success of the craft fair and the appeal of our products.
Craft Fair as a Risk with Positive Outcome
Participating in a craft fair is always a risk. You never know how well it will go, especially given the uncertainties that come with organizing and setting up a booth. However, the West Fargo Street Fair turned out to be a positive experience for us. The visitor turnout, the sales, and the sense of community reaffirmed our decision to take this risk.
Encouragement for Viewers to Try Markets
Based on our own experience, we want to encourage our viewers to try out markets, fairs, and events in their local area. Even if you’re unsure of how well it will go, you never know what opportunities and experiences await you. It’s a chance to showcase your craft, connect with customers, and build a network of like-minded individuals. So go ahead and take that leap of faith. You never know where it might lead.
