Your very natural and funny; which makes it real and informative. You talk conversationally, and not rehearsed, so as a viewer it makes it more interesting to watch.

This just popped up in my suggested videos (three years after you made it, ha!). I’m 8 minutes in and am really enjoying it. I just finished my first full craft fair season, and I completely agree. I had the best successes at markets that did not allow direct sales products. The only time I tried a market that allowed direct sales products (I did not know that in advance), I paid $40 for my booth fee and only sold $50 worth of stuff. Yeah. Like you, my target market is people who enjoy quality handmade items. I’m upscaling my booth set-up for this coming season, so this video is super helpful! Going to watch the rest of it now.

When it comes to doing a show on my own at the age of 28, I freeze 😂. I have suddenly forgotten how anything is supposed to look or work and the thought of doing one scares me.
