Visual Depth and Dimension Adds Interest to Your Craft Booth

by Beverly

I have both shopped at and been a vendor at craft shows and presentation is everything. If you can't find the prices or see all of the items without moving other product, your table/booth will be passed by.

The solution that worked for me when it came to pricing is to use clear acrylic picture frames/ sign holders (I bought them at an office supply store). Because they were clear they did not detract from my color scheme and were easily moved or removed if items sold out.

When it comes to adding height to the table display, I used plastic spice shelves that you can buy in most big box stores. They are white, usually have black non-skid material on them and expand. What I did was use some extra material from my tablecloth and draped it over so the display was integrated into the table and looked like risers.

I am a soapmaker so I also used some baskets and small metal buckets to hold some of my smaller products. I used these mainly on the white shelving that I would put up on either side of my table creating a booth of sorts.

On the bottom shelves of those units I made sure to put all the kid friendly items so that they would be attracted to those items and allow "Mommy" time to look at the products that she would be interested it.
