Biggs and Featherbelle is a favorite new-to-me soap company run by two sisters in Maryland. I admire so much about this business, from their kicky branding to the hand painted packaging to their embrace of thrift when it comes to display set-ups for fairs. What do I mean? Take a look at the following images, culled from their Flickr account, and see how the same materials pop up over the years in different configurations. The result is always a polished and professional presentation that's easy on their wallets and the planet.
Wooden crates at first craft fair - 2003:
Wooden crates, standing up vertically, at left. Square crates at right. 2008
Crates wrapped in brown cloth. 2008
Hopefully this provides some inspiration for how to reuse and rework your current craft table decor to vary up your look without breaking the bank. There are many more photos in the Flickr account where these came from. It's fascinating to see their presentation evolve over time while still remaining very true to their origins. Check out all their goodies in the Biggs and Featherbelle shop.
I love looking at booth setups.

it's also encouraging to see where they started, product-wise. that first table is pretty sparse compared to the others, but we all have to start somewhere! it's nice to see a business's growth over the years.

I love how their booth has grown and the crates look so good. The only question I have is where do you get crates like that?

I've had my personal Chestnut Pants for 3 winter seasons at this point they usually always look along with truly feel brand spanking new! These are without a doubt really worth the revenue! The only thing is usually that We you should never take prada bags labor, particularly teh New york city ground, in order that they usually do not unveil. I will request for Common Cardy High on grilling or simply Chocolate Timeless Short for my birthday. :)
