Time to get ready for Christmas craft show season?

Already?

You betcha!

Yes, I know it's only September and many of us are not ready for the thought of winter, but Christmas is a busy time for craft business owners.

It's a time that can present great opportunities for your business, and the fact is, holiday craft shows are just around the corner. So, this week, and for the next few weeks, the Craft Business Challenge will focus on topics to help you make the most of the holiday shopping season.


To help you get a jump-start on Christmas craft fair preparations, I have plenty of ideas to inspire you to get your booth ready for the festive season, including several brand new Christmas craft show display photos.

This week, I'm featuring 15 photos of beautiful booths at Christmas craft shows. 9 holiday booth photos are brand new, never seen before, and 6 are favorites from past holiday seasons.

Some of the Christmas craft show booths featured this week belong to craft business owners who went all-in with big, spectacular holiday displays. Others made small, simple changes to make their regular displays holiday-ready.

Plus, I've designed booth signs for your Christmas craft booth and year round displays. Want to encourage customers to shop handmade, or indulge themselves a little with a purchase? I have signs for that! There's something for everyone here.
