Exhibition

With a good team effort we managed to set up the exhibition on time. At the time i found it stressful as there seemed to be so much to do and i found hanging the artwork much hard then i thought i would. However, looking back i really enjoyed participating. It is definitely a worth while experience and i would look to do it again in the future!

For our stall we had to think about the following :

• how they were going to be displayed
• how much we were going to sell them for
• float
• commissions

Katy's and my stall... we used a turquoise piece of cloth and just spread all the necklaces out so the customers could see what was available. We also prepared a sheet of commissions where people could write down a shape that they wanted and we would do it for them. We did get a couple. As the evening went on we thought it was a good idea to write down what people were buying, see which were the favourite shapes... it worked out pretty even though.

We decided to sell the Necklaces for £3.00 and the key rings for £2.50. Other than the Vis. Com charity event before Christmas, we had never sold anything like it before so though we would test to see how popular they were. We made £40 selling our necklaces and key rings! We definitely weren't expecting to make so much! However in the future it would be a good idea to have some sort of business card as we had a lot of people wanting to buy more in the future. we ween't expecting it to be so successful so really didn't think about it!
