what equipment do i need to attend a fair?


do i need a folding table or do places tend to supply them?

I've thought about the obvious - something to hang my jewellery on and a table cloth.. but not sure what else, any ideas?

Thanks, Rebecca x

Hi.
It normally states whether you need a table or not. If it is one in a hall, they tend to supply them. I often take a pasting table with me just in case. I also take a chair. Sandwiches, flask of coffee and a packet of biscuits. I take my equipment. As sometimes things can be slow and so I have something to do. The last one I was at a lady asked if I had any red earrings, so I was able to make some up for her. It also means I can alter jewellery if I need to. I have a plank and books to raise the back of the table (crude but nobody can see under the table cloth). Mirror. Money/float.
Hope everything goes well for you.
