Corner spaces are my favorite! It is better, IMHO, to have that table near the back so that you have two sides on that corner, where they can walk past and see things, as well as step inside your booth area to look at things some more. This takes extra time in setting up since you need to make it attractive from various view points but worth it.

Of course a lot depends on what you are selling. I have seen some crafters in corner booths that do not use that outside at ALL, they have a completely enclosed booth, and don't even thing to hang products on that outside...what a waste!

Best of luck!

I dont do craft shows to sell but like to go to them, if I can see something I like it draws me to that booth.

I totally agree to the inviting them into your space...bring the tables in...make sure to light some non floral(allergies)candles or tart warmer.
Make your base colors just that...either white, black, navy, gray or dark red. Make it as professional as possible. Everything dusted and touchable. Keeping glass things away from the edges and away from little hands.
Make sure to have your business cards really handy on the tables. Also use acrylic photo frames and print yourself up little signs with your name or your business name so it is easily seen and remembered. Remember that other vendors are usually your best customers.
Keep your eats and drinks out of sight or on a table behind your display tables, a card table works great for this. Leave room to wrap,and bag the sold goods. Have plenty of change.
Keep visitors/guests to a minimum concentrate on your customers, greeting, talking, showing, etc...make them feel very very welcome to your space.

Sorry you probably know all this...but I'm on a writing spree today for some reason.

I use red/white small checked fabric on all my tables. I wear a red apron with red/white check bib and my name in red on the bib part. Really like having the pockets. Bought it at a thrift store. It is like a butchers apron, but had some restaurant name on the bib - just covered the bib part with check material and added my name in iron on letters. Looks great.
Wondering about a cheap way to make a tall back and/or side to seperate from the other booths.

Since I don't know what type of craft you will be selling, these are just a few suggestions. We made table covers - if the table is 8' x 3', we cut the material for the top 8' x 3', then added slightly ruffled material to hand around the front and sides, overlapping in the front so we could store boxes under table. We used a solid dark blue and at Christmas we added a quilt over the top. For shelving on top of the table, we used window shutters, knocked out a few slats and slid boards through them. We added an L bracket to the bottom of the shutters so we could clamp them to the table - makes it sturdier. We also used old Coke crates (wood), and placed boards across them. One of my friends used the closet doors that have slats - you know the ones that are 15"x84". She then knocked out the slats for the shelving and she only used a small table for checkout. The shelving made more room in her booth. If interested, let me know and I will give you details.

Be careful putting a table in the front of the booth. It makes it feel boxed in and a lot of people will just pass it by rather than go in the booth to look. I don't do shows anymore and I miss it sometimes - then I remember the work - only a crafter would understand just how much work and why we continue to do it.

Oh, I forgot - if electricity is available, it is always nice to have a lamp of some sort that will highlight your work - maybe one that clamps on and can be directed to your work. Since we did a lot of hand painted items, we used several cheap lamps we had painted - not too big of a shade - and put them on the table at different heights (on wood boxes covered with same material as table). My friend used the clamp on type which came out and over her closet doors shining down on her items but not in the face of her customers.

Ginger had a lot of good ideas. Some of my items were on the high priced side so we made sure to have some smaller less expensive items available. I have a list somewhere of things you should and shouldn't do for a show, if I can find it I will post it. It is probably things you already know but sometimes we need a little refreshing.
