Many groups and organizations use craft bazaars to sell items their member's make to increase funds.
The items can be as simple as coffee mugs filled with wrapped candy, or business items for desks.
A mug full of paper clips might make its way to a secretary's office.
Give a mug cake with icing on top to someone in your department at work.
You don't even have to bake one in the cup unless you want to.
Just purchase a double pack of cupcakes, and set them down in two mugs to give away! Wrap them in clear, or colored, cellophane for sanitary reasons.
Decorate a card with the recipe on it to hang around the jar lid if more ingredients must be added to the contents of what is inside.
Or print some labels with a special quote from you on them to attach to all the gifts you make.
The mugs are a fun project for scouts or 4-H groups to raise funds for their treasury.
You can purchase a box full of coffee mugs at thrift or consignments shops very reasonably.
Fill them with what you like, and business sales will boom.
Sit down with paper and pen, and think of all the wonderful handmade gifts that were given to you as you were growing up.
If you can remember what they looked like, most of the time you, or someone else, will be able to find instructions on how the craft item was made.
Marking each craft item with the sale price is essential.
No one likes to ask the prices of everything they look at.
Make it easier on the customer, and save yourself valuable time, by pricing each item you have available for purchase.
You may have three customers at once, and you don't want all of them waiting in line just to ask the sale price of an item.
Walk up to the front of your display and pretend to be a customer.
Are you pleased with the way each item is placed on your table? Can the display be improved in some way?Working problems out ahead of business hours will save both you and your clients time and money.
