Can You Spice Up Your Vendor Fair Display with Outdoor Party Sticks?

[SusanBP0129]

I have a Vendor Fair tomorrow and just came up with this idea. Thought I'd share

THAT is so cute! I put mine in a colored bucket but I like how nice and small this is! Thanks for sharing!

I was going to do a bucket, but I didn't want to lug sand, etc... PLus, I didn't want to buy anything! So, I pushed styrofoam into the bottom of the bread crock and then scrunched up tissue paper on top.

Thanks so much for that Sue! I've been trying to figure out a better (smaller) way to display them!

 

[BethCooks4U]

Yes thanks! Too bad the crocks aren't available anymore. :cry:


...but then it gives you a reason to talk about the outlet! :love:

Cute and I have a fair on 5/31 - too bad I don't have the party sticks - only the crock. I bought myself a collap. bowl though after all the raving!!!!

 

[Jules711]

The crocks are available, just not in cranberry...on the outlet. And a booth is a GREAT time to talk about the outlet. People LOVE a deal and I tell people I send updates on it and they are happy to share their email info.

Oh and REALLY cute!!

Sorry did it wrong first time.

Also, here is a pic of my table - I got the table cloth for like 3.99 at wal-mart & I thought it went well w/our new spring/summer colors.

Awesome pictures everyone!!! I used play sand and didn't work as well as I liked but people still ordered them so I was happy!

I recently displayed them with a basket, put the square basket upside down and inserted the party sticks, show that you could put a 2 liter and also a bottle of wine on the smalls one put a tumbler and some dish towels.............
sold 2 sets...........

You should put Easter Grass on top instead to simulate real grass.... Just a thought- I think I have 3 bags left from Dear Niece's baskets...

Except, until I saw that it was tissue paper, I thought it looked like sand. Using them at the beach is one way I've been promoting them!

Cute ideas!!!

 

[twinkie10]

Cute ideas, everyone!

 

[linojackie]

I was showing them to a host and she said "OOOh, those would look really cute stuck in a watermelon!" I haven't tried it yet, but I think it's such a cute idea!

Love that idea!! Thanks

I am sorry, I didn't read through other posts but will try to get a picture of my display on here. I have the silver bucket. Blocks of green styrofoam, filled in the gaps with Spanish moss and the put floral moss over the top. I need to get an empty bottle to keep with my display....hmmm...am I passing a store that sells wine?!?!

I have the Party Sticks in a block of styrofoam covered with the green microfiber towel to stimulate grass (less messy than Easter grass) in the Square Woven Piece. I use that at fairs.

I am going to "dig up" another piece of styrofoam and do the crock idea for my shows though. It's smaller and will be easier to transport.

 

[PCMelissa]

Where was this thread last week? lol. I wanted to display the party sticks and couldn't think of how to do it. I have that crock too. Oh well!!

 

[chefann]

I took mine to a fair and put 3 of the small sticks and the big one into foam in the TTA, which still had room in the outer ring for other tools.

 

[Bren706]

Today, I took one of my $0.88 planting pots, and got a piece of foam, and then found some dark green grassy stuff (found at Michael's, in the silk flower section, near the fake moss).

 

[pampermejolene]

Here's mine. It's not the greatest picture, but you get the idea.
I can't take all the credit, a cluster-mate showed us something similar at our last meeting. Everything was purchased at the Dollar Store so it was only about a $6 investment.

 

[CookingwithMary]

Very nice! The smaller space saving display is really helpful.

Love all the ideas, thank you all!

 

[mpkegley]

These are great ideas! I can see doing something like this for a wedding shower etc. These would be great gifts for someone getting married.

 

[chefliz]

Yeah! That is a great idea-I love it! I could even take it to my shows as well as booths...awesome!

I have a large white handled basket that I got filled with the foam and spanish moss already at the Salvation Army for $1.99 (a STEAL!!). I put a lg bottle of wine with 3 nice wine glasses and then 3 clear candle holders with candles in the remaining ones...I mention the candles along the driveway or using citronella candles while you are out in the yard enjoying your 'beverages'...I admit lugging the lg basket around is a pain however, it makes a nice addition when I set my display table with my bbq gear on it...the only neg feedback I get with the OPS is that the sticks are so short...I have sold several sets regardless!
