Really cute, but how easy is it for the items to come off the pacificer? Would these necklaces be worn by the babies? I personally would not buy anything that could break and be swallowed by a little one, but in certain cultures I have seen these worn and the parents are not concerned.

Your things are really cute! I love the cats eye, I haven't used it, but I think it's so pretty, soft colors. Love that pink & blue pearl one also.

The pacifiers are adorable, but they'd scare the bejeebers out of me, liability issue. I don't know if you use Swarovski flat backs, but you might want to check into the lead content of the crystals on the. I believe it's 32%, but I don't know how/when, it's dangerous.

You might also want to add a break point on your children's bracelets. That way if they get their arm caught on something, the bracelet will open at the break point, like a heavy, but open, jump ring at the clasp. That saves the child from breaking a wrist or from the beads on the bracelet going all over the place should it break. All you'd have to replace to fix the bracelet is the jump ring.

Also write up a little disclaimer about supervising children with jewelry, etc. And put it in the bag with the item.. Can you tell I'm paranoid????
I sell through my site, eBay & Etsy. Etsy is not so hot, but it's inexpensive. I do craft show, a TON of custom work, word of mouth, neighbors, etc.

As for displaying your jewelry, if it's mostly children's stuff, that fun! I'm thinking white Teddy bear props, maybe some pastel wood cubes for risers. I'd use a white table cloth and displays. Nile corp is good for displays. Bring plenty of business cards too. I had a bowl of candy out for the kids also, they liked that

Good luck!

About the pacifiers.... I include a disclaimer with each one, they are a NOVELTY item, and should only be used with strict adult supervision and are best for things like pictures, stuff like that, because while the beads are attached really well, they can come off with general wear and tear, or if you were to put the paci in the freezer, dishwasher or boiling water. Anyone who purchases one is aware of the liability that goes along with them. I don't plan to sell them at my craft fair either. Only the bracelets. Having the break away is a good idea, and I must admit, I've talked to many people who work with baby bracelets and you are the first one to mention such a thing. I also include disclaimers with all my baby jewelry that they should be used with adult supervision.

thanks for the input! I really appreciate it!

I am thinking some cute baby dolls that you could use to display the bracelets on their wrists or use stuffed bears or things like that. I am picturing a pink, light blue or yellow colors used on the booth. Maybe white table clothes with other colors of fabric layered over the top:)These are really cute, I have 2 little girly girls ( 3 and 1) but didn't use any jewelry when they were babies but my 3 year old loves gaudy beeds and lives for clip on earings;)

Your bracelets are very fantastic looking, you've done a great job in making them. I think you will have good luck selling them at the craft fair just on their beautiful appeal alone. May I suggest you advertise that they can be worn by young girls as an ankle bracelet also - so double purpose!!! Hope you have a great day at the fair, please let us know how you do.

Nothing aggitates me more when looking at jewelry whan it is just all spread out on a table with no emphasis on layout or even a of any sort of display...so I'm so glad you asked for help to make yours nice. Oh and leaving items in plastic bags really puts me over the edge....lol
I really would go over to eBay and check out what's hot and what's not...a lot of inspiration over there and ideas, usually a little ahead of their time in some examples. I usually sale on eBay but since my Mum's passing in September I haven't been in the mood to sale.
Don't over clutter your table with tooooo much use a contrast but be consistant. Remember to make it easy on the eye...cluster colors together, a lot of vendors don't know how much scientific work goes into studying color habits in buying. Example...if the colors are arranged in pinks...but the bracelet designs are different they can see the design in the bracelets, and not just the color...hope this makes sense. It will also attract buyers to stay at your booth longer because you have made it inviting. Tag/Price everything, look as professional as possible.
Roll recieving blankets or even cloth diapers up tight and use them as bracelet rolls.
I don't know if looking at my stuff will help but most of the photos were made for sales on eBay.
Best of Luck!!!

GINGER! I love your jewelry. It is absolutely stunning!!! I used to be a member of the BDHV (got removed because I just didn't have the time to participate at the board). We have very similar tastes in jewelry, that is for sure!!!

thanks so much all for the tips and info. Things have happened over the weekend and I'm not 100% sure I'm still going to do the craft show... I've spent the morning trying to talk myself out of it.
