Inventory Panic Attack

With the rapid approach of the next Aldborough Creative Show I thought I'd better do an inventory of what I had made.

I laid it all out on the table - except the eight hats. Took one look and had a panic attack.

I've finished off the four necklaces that needed their fasteners and I'm just about to give the hares their hanging chains but I'm not sure it's enough. Help!

Arrgh.......

i think you're ok! we always tend to overstock. i was just telling myself that i need not panic, but yet i've just made piles and piles of things to make! must talk myself down, too. :)

By the time you have added the hats it will look fine, the only thing lacking is height and the hats will give you that. Good luck, I hope you sell lots.

I am sure you will be fine :-) Love those hares!

Good luck! I know the feeling well.... BUT it's not the quantity it's the way it's displayed that is the key to good sales.

Toffeeapple is right, height is the key... add a Christmas tree of some sort and hand your jewellery on it - branches if you can't get a tree. It will fill up the space nicely and attract the customers.

Would be great to see you at Holt on 26 Nov.

Oh, yes, I am having that anxiety right now too. I think in the end less is more - too much means that no-one can see anything properly. I agree about the height thing - I usually have a vaseful of sparkly twigs and maybe some of those battery powered fairy lights. I also have a couple of fabric covered pinboards that I stand up for displaying jewellery. If anyone comes behind my stand they see a jumble of jars and tins and string holding it all up but from the front it seems to be OK!
