Week Long Craft Fair for only £5! Check Out Craftfest

Hello

I wanted to share a craft fair I've taken part in, and thought I'd share it with you in case you fancied joining up too!

Craftfest is a week long web based craft fair.  For £5 you can buy a stall for the week as well as tons of promotional tools, and meet some other fantastic crafters and artists.  

When you sign up you'll join a team, with an excellent team leader and other fab stallholders who are there to help you set up your stall, learn the best ways to promote each other and assist with all your other questions (and I've had a few!!)

Here's the official information from the Craftfest-events.com website to give you a better idea:

"Welcome to our Community Event, hosted on the Creative Connections Social Network. This is a fantastic opportunity to put your business right at the heart of the Crafting Community. Meet people with similar interests from all over the world.

Whilst the event itself is great fun, we also have lots of fun in the lead up to it. Your stall is available for you to promote and embed into your blogs and websites from the moment you create it. Offer your customers exclusive ‘previews’ and sell, sell, sell right up to, during and after the event. 

The ‘fest will be running from the 16th – 23rd March 2013 on the Creative Connections Website.http://creative-connections.ning.com/ 

From 2013, we now offer a 3 tiers of booking: 

Option 1 - Standard Stall Booking
(Price is per stall)
£5  
Option 2 - Stall + Initial Setup

Please visit http://www.craftfest-events.com/booking_form.html to read more about these options and to sign up. 

Don’t worry if you don’t have good computer skills, we have a fantastic team ready to guide you through it. All that we ask is that you interact with us. Don’t be shy! Our promotions team will teach you many new networking skills and you will be promoted by not just yourself but all of the other stall holders as well! 

Make new friends! Promote your business! Networking at its best! 

We are the original online Craft fair! Come and Join us NOW!

See you there!
The CRAFTfest Team!"
In my opinion its a brilliant idea and site - I've learnt loads and you don't need to a computer whizz (I'm certainly not!) to set up your stall and start promoting
I hope to see you there
