Teresa,
I sent you 2 pics....... Ginger
 
So how did the booth go? I can't wait to see pics!
 
When I tried to upload my pics, all of them were too big. Create a photobucket account and link it on here! Remember, people that aren't members can see...:)
 
Hey leah, where are you at in Florida? I'm in central florida.
 
I would love to see your pictures too, curious about the crates, they sound great! Could you email them if you haven't figured out how to upload? Thank you!

those look great! Darn, now I wish I had gotten some of those instead of the wire-cubes!
Thanks for going to all the trouble to post the photos.
 
Nice job. Great idea to use the crates for different viewing levels, and catagories.
Thanks for persevering and sharing with us.

Your welcome.. I have put more stuff on them and made them look better. But I was rushed... Glad you like them.
 
If anyone clicks on the first picture, it lets you look at all of them! They look great! I have a "6 ft table booth" next Tuesday that this idea would be great for!
 
Where did you find the crates? I would like to have a couple for displays.
 
Ginger, I looked at them via photobucket. They are really great. Thanks for sharing. I am still new to this site and haven't figured out some of the bells and whistles yet (not too computer/chat savy, sorry) . . . . I tried to change my preference to allow for email, but haven't figured it out yet either.
 
Awesome pics - thanks for sharing!

I have a booth this weekend and was wondering how I could add some different levels to my table.
 
So, how much were the crates (or is that a tacky question? :blushing:)
 
Ginger, thanks for the pics! Is that your lattice backdrop? What is it made of, where do you get one, and is it easy to cart around?

I bought an EZ up and am trying to get the other things together so I'm prepared to do booths.
