arrsdamg: Craft Show Ideas - Stone Cold Profits

I will provide you a few ways to capitalize on the stones and other hardened material like stones (glass, beads), and then can take it and run with it from there. The beauty of this type of craft is that you can find the stones you want inexpensively and you can hike up the profit margin. When you are buying the stones in bulk for your craft show items, it makes it easy to keep the costs down and the profit margin up!

Here are 3 ways you can incorporate stones into your craft show items:

1.) Mosaics Mosaics are a craft that allows you to create a picture or design out of a variety of materials. You piece the stones and other material and it looks like a patchwork of pieces that eventually comes together to form a great picture. This art form is enjoying a renaissance in the craft show world, and it might be time for you to get involved.

2.) Jewelry Everything from bracelets to necklaces and even smaller, basic rings can be made. Depending upon your experience making crafts and working with metals you might be able to create elaborate jewelry for craft shows. Once people show a desire for your work, the popularity can spread like wildfire. Take some time to find out what other people are making for jewelry and then come up with something completely original and you might just have a craft show winner on your hands.

3.) Decorative pieces You can make stand alone decorative pieces from larger stones, or you can use nice, polished and colored stones to trim your other craft show creations. Stones make great highlights for some pieces for example, it could be trim on a birdfeeder or nice stones can be inset into pottery. You can come up with a variety of ways to use the stones as a part of another craft show item.

With the multitude of stones available (and those that come in bead and colored glass), you can surely make it a part of your craft show item. They are inexpensive and they are versatile in their use. Why not add a little pizzazz to your craft show booth and maybe even a few dollars to the bottom line by working with stones.
