Food and drink out on the front porch
A table with my jewelry and cake stands

If people have yard sales, why not an art sale? It would certainly be nice to get my name out there locally. Still, people are funny about selling so I'll be checking with the township to make sure it's OK before I start plastering my fliers all over town.
Here are some necklaces that I'll be putting on my Etsy Shop. The middle one is my grandfather and that one will not be for sale. BUT...I will use it as an example of custom work. Every time I wear him, I get a zillion compliments. I love having him near my heart :)
Sounds like a wonderful idea! Two years ago I started an annual 'art show' at our church to help raise funds for our yearly mission trip. It was a huge success... I asked artists to donate one to three pieces of art for a silent auction to be held at the end of the show. We set up and displayed everything in out fellowship hall and it was like a little SOHO gallery experience! You may consider offering a % of sales to your favorite charity...it's a wonderful way to share your talents with a worthy cause! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI had gone to quite a few "art sales" for charity mostly. I would recommend to keep prices affordable, but fair to you as well. The last one I went to the cheapest thing they had was about 100 dls. so as much as many people wanted to buy I kept hearing that it was too expensive for them to do, so instead they were donating 20-30 dls to the church directly. Good luck as it is a really neat thing to do.
ReplyDeleteI Love your idea and I like your necklaces they are great I will check out your Esty shop
