Hi I'm a tad bit delusional but I want to make a display

So I make these little terrariums that you can wear and also magnets. But I felt my current display was lacklustre. So in true beginner fashion I decided to make this forrest come to being?

I got this wood you can soak thats used to make fake trees. I really only need the tree trunks to be sturdy enough to hold my necklaces. Yes I don't know how how to make screw driver holes but I will figure it out!

I figured i would soak and roll the wood as they insturcted. But I'm not super sure what to use to support the insides. I want to keep them hollow ish so i can stick a light in there and make some tree holes to let light out. I would be down to use fairy lights if thats too advanced.

Most research i did mentioned using pipes or wood strips and then shaping wire and foam around it....but im not sure if this wood is diff.

Im planning to borrow the woodworking workshop at my uni.

Please give me advice....its tough out here.

The hooth and any suggestions?

So I followed the suggestions to remove most signage and the games. Unfortunately I had an older croed and had to remove the spider box ;_;.

I have another booth upcoming and I'm just wondering what lighting you guys recommend that would really take my display to a new place. I was a little let down with my my terrarium necklaces looked on the display and I've got half an urge to go make a massive tree and a ton of logs to make my own necklace displays. I have no idea how I would do it....but I know this aint it chief.

Testing out a booth setup for a upcoming fair ><

I haven't put out all my items but roughly like this. We have a larger table but this is the only free table I had at home, so my friend has more space for her stuff.

I'm collecting my signs that explain that i sell wearable terrariums and what they are tomorrow so just imagine if they were there.

I added a fishing game so they can try to play for stickers or a necklace for a price. The stickers being garunteed prizes.

I also didn't set up the lights yet. But i have two large lwd sticks for the main displays. And loads of flower shaped fairylights.

Is there anything I can do to improve my diplay?

How do I improve views and engagement?

So I'm a terrarium artist who does wearable terrarium necklaces, keychains, magnets and tabletop setups. All in my signature diorama miniature scale.

I've been posting a variety of different content, using the trending audios, behind the scenes and such.

But I find much more success selling in markets. I want to tap into that online community yk, but its tough.

How do I reach more potential clients?

I sell terrarium wearables and terrariums that are built on a 1.28 scale which is smaller than most people. But I find that outside of markets, getting people to buy through social media is harder. I would be ok to pay for adds or anything really. I just want to get out there.

I am currently in talks to offer workshops and classes as well but I really want to boost my custom orders customer pool. I am able to sell out at fairs and markets in my niche, but....online yk?

I am only selling locally since my terrariums are tough to figure out shipping and the smaller pieces require regular light.

So etsy is not rly an option.

Im debating between setting up a website or just a google form to take orders.

Hi yall, advice for a solo booth?

I posted a lil panicky about my first booth which did go pretty well thanks to you guys. I sold out twice!

Anyhow I've been invited for a plant fair (outdoors, did not know we had those here) next month.

I got photos of my work and booth inspo slash booth ideas?

Maybe fairy lights are an option?

The footfall is supposed to be in the hundreds and its held at a park 4 times a year.

I'll be boothing with a friend who does fungus stickers.

Lowk been thinking of increasing my prices a little? I'm getting regular online orders from people in my country and they always quote me way higher than what I'm actually charging. But I'm not getting enough regular cystomers for that atm.

Also would love advice on pricing classes? Like I was approached to do corporate type dnd stuff? With my terrarium wearables but I'm not sure how to price fairly for that.

Its been a crazy 2 months since I started but yeah!

Emergency! Last minute booth in 2 days, what do I do holy-

My amazing friend had space pn her booth and invited ne to make my booth debut at planters market in 2 days.

Problem? I have 5 ready made products( i can rustle up about 50 items in time) zero signs. No displays. Only 2 pegboards, a wire rack and a semblance of a dream.

I have fairy lights and a light uo signboard in my house somewhere.

How do I prepare for saturday? Frankly I'm prepared to crunch extra hard and make more.

The footfall is 20 to 30k people and its a sarurday halppp.

I made living wearable terrariums

I'm terribly proud of these little terrariums I've made. I've always loved making miniatures, anf getting to combine that with my terrarium obsession has been amazing.

Had leftover beads since I pivoted to fully natural terrarium jewelry. Was inspired by @solunaprism to make plant jewelry. How should i package and display these guys?

In packs of threes? Maybe if you buy a necklace you can get one cheaper.

Should i bring an example model plant to my fair too?

I added some examples of my work with the plant jewelry .

Pricing advice?

I make these little terrarium jewelry and mini tetrariums and I'd love to know what you'd pay. I'm planning to make diy kits as well.
