Use a flat cart with a collapsible handle. I got mine from Staples. Order online and they deliver to your house from the store…. yes in Albuquerque.

I've been doing holiday craft shows for a few years. My collapsible wagon (fabric body over metal frame with big wheels) is so helpful for transorting stuff to my booth, as I've been doing indoor markets. I got mine quite a while ago, but they are often available at Ace Hardware, Menards, Walmart, etc. Dimensions of the wagon itself are 36" long 18"wide, with 12" sides; the wheels hold it about 8" off the ground, and it has a telescoping handle. I got mine for $50. These days you can get a lot more bells & whistles, but no need to shell out for things you don't need. They are also good for hauling musucal gear to gigs (another parttime gig of mine), or hauling small children & snacks etcetera at festivals.

Honestly, I'm still at the beginning of the video, but this is a blessing. Just found the term "pop up shop" from one of my grandparents' shows, and have a great play in mind. I also want to make drip candles, and have been obsessively researching homemade bath and body stuff, so this channel fits in well with that! Definitely subscribing, and gonna go watch the other video and come back then.

I would recommend getting a better tent - it's worth upgrading to an EZ UP for around $300 if you're going to be doing a lot of markets. Tents get beat up moving them, setting up, taking down, etc and the ABC is just not going to last a market season. I've got a few of each and the ABCs always have issues way before the others.

Your table is lovely. I know your theme is black and white...but perhaps you could enhance with the color of the month. February could include dried rose petals loosely spread out. October could be coloured leaves with reds and orange representing fall time. Good video about setting up and presentation. As they say, presentation is everything.

Do you know how to make traditional black candles, like they did in the middle ages? Been trying to figure out how they did it, and my searches have mostly been fruitless. Current plan is to make charcoal and grind it fine enough, or use lampblack. I want to capture the energy of those black candles, and don't want to use any modern colorants as a replacement. (Even if the modern ones are natural. Target market is for esoterics/witches/ritualists/etc.)

I put all of my candles back in the boxes that they are shipped to me in. It's not very pretty but it fits and gets the job done! Next year I'm going to upgrade a few things with regards to transporting candles and the huge hauls we have to take to markets and I'll definitely share on here when I do!
