[LIL MIS' MAGIC]

You should do very well at both events! You offer a nice variety and there are definately lots of shoppers! We always walk through the vendors at the AKC shows and have yet to walk away empty handed.

We spent almost a full year doing art/craft shows and dog events on the weekends and did very well. Often we would have more traffic and buyers than other vendors....as people will spend money on their "babies". The one thing we learned was be prepared inventory wise and have some way for people to order (and prepay). Sometimes we had our wireless internet up and could handle website orders for items we had run out of and also for those wanting to pay by credit card.

Good luck!! I definately agree with the suggestion to think of items for the show breeders (items made of satin for show coats)......but also consider breed specific items - as they sell very well from my observations.
