Renton Spring Festival - Results
We had a great time at the Renton Spring Festival on May 11th. The weather was beautiful; nice and sunny. The event was held in the Piazza which is located in downtown Renton, WA. We arrived at around 10am and starting setting up our booth. This is the first time we attended a craft fair outside. We were new to the whole setting up a tent. After a while struggling to pop the tent up, some nice craft fair folks came over and helped us out. Once we were told the trick to popping these up it was simple. Surprisingly, we were set up in under a hour. We are getting better at setting up.Or, we are getting better at organizing our product to present easier. We were glad for the extra space the tent provided as well as the beams from the tent. We were able to hang a frame and our sign from there and make our jewelry more presentable.
There was a really nice turn out from the community with lots of people showing up and eager to buy. It was a really nice location. Many people driving by and stopping not knowing of the event beforehand. Making for a bigger turn out. We did really well in our sells too. Many people liked our stuff and said they would look for us at other upcoming events. Over in the back of the grass there was a pavilion where many local dance and cheer groups were putting on performances. Unfortunately, Mary and I could not see the performances from out booth. Nevertheless it was a great time. We were really happy we had shade because as the day progressed so did the heat. We made many new friends and had a great time. Overall it was a great day.
