Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From the Author
When I first started having home shows twelve years ago to promote my quilting business, I could find little information on this topic. I learned over the years through trial and error, so I decided to put everything l learned into a "how-to" book because there are many others who would benefit from this knowledge. As far as I know, there is no other book like it on the market.

Good Advice,
By Mary Santana (Brooklyn, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Home Shows : The Complete Guide for Artists and Craftspeople (Paperback)
Simple, straightforward advice for those who want to do home shows. Everything from naming your show and printing invitations to what to do with your pets. Brings up some things that first-timers might not think about, such as proper lighting; finding out about any necessary permits; having helpers to greet people while you show off your work; and many others. If you've never done a home show and want to, this is a very good step-by-step guide.
