Pine'eer Arts & Crafts Fair

Last weekend's Pine'eer Arts & Craft Fair outside of Ocean City, MD received mixed reviews depending upon where your booth was located and what you were selling.  I heard that those vendors who were located inside in the comforts of air conditioning did not have a good show due to less foot traffic. On the other hand, those of us who were located outside in the park under the trees were more successful. Thankfully, it did not rain just before or during the show.  We were dry.  It was a hot day- 90 degrees with an occasional breeze.  We had more foot traffic as usual.  Crafters and artisans with unusual creations did more business.  There seemed to be foot traffic this year.  Many people were shopping for holiday gifts.  The one downer for me was there were fewer food vendors.  Over the years, we have always depended upon food vendors for a variety of offerings in the morning and at lunch time- Italian sausages and other goodies.  I'll be there again next year.

My next show is a little closer to home in Parkville, MD in Baltimore County.  It will be my first time vending at that show.  I'm looking forward to the opportunity.  Stop by the show if you're located in the Baltimore area.  More later.
