I have a few items in an Homemade shop in Innisfail, AB called Ashlee's Attic. I had my items on a peg board to maximize the amount of product I can display. But it's not selling well. After seeing the display I think I get why. I chatted with the owner and we both agree the peg board isn't going my glass art jewellery any justice so today I will be moving it into a shelf/crate type display which is how I display my items at craft shows.
I've spent a bit of this today decided how to display my items. The pros of this new display, look for high end and professional, (hopefully causing more sales) the cons are that I won't be able to display as may items. I am also going to see if it makes sense for the month of December to rent two spaces and display a few larger items. A few of the dishes I'm hoping to sell are hugely on sale because I found a bin that had quite a few platters I made when I first started fusing 2-3 years ago.
This store is also offering their space up to use for classes or demonstrations. I'm thinking and trying to figure out if it'd be work doing a fused glass jewellery making class. or coasters? or small dishes?
This could be a new revenue source for me.
I have also decided to commit to another 3 months at the store, knowing that Jan, Feb and March are typically slower months for purchasing gift type items.
