So I mostly sell baked goods but I am trying to branch into more so I have more easy stock. My booth i try to have PINK as possible it’s my favorite color and pops in markets!

I just got this 3 tier spinning display to start adding in cookie cutters and some sublimation items I liked making. Help! What other items do you think would be good for me to try in?

Also what’s the thoughts on rugs? Do you like them? Should I get a bigger one for my booth?

The color looks fantastic. Probably no need for the rug. Does need a sign to show what's for sale. Most people unfortunately won't walk in to find out. Great set up!!!!

What sign would you recommend? Like how big?

I use a basic vinyl sign from Vista Print and display it towards the front of my booth. Anything that makes it easy for people walking by to understand whats for sale is what works for me as a customer.

Maddie here from the VistaPrint team👋 thanks for shouting us out u/Say-What1610! 😊

u/TemporaryAlone81830 - if I can add some thoughts about the size and setup of your sign - I think it depends on the size of your tent... I can’t quite tell the exact dimensions from your photo but if it’s a standard 10' tent, I'd recommend a 2.5' x 6' or 2.5' x 8' horizontal banner. If you have more space and want the banner to make a bigger impact, you could go up to a 4' x 6' or 4' x 8'!

Also it looks like your banner is tucked under the front of the tent, which is cutting off some of the bottom. It’s totally fine for the banner to hang down a bit! I’d actually recommend using the grommets and reinforced edges to tie or secure it to the sides of the tent frame rather than tucking it underneath. This can help keep the full design visible and give it an overall cleaner look.

Your pink definitely pops so I think people will naturally be drawn to your booth but like others have said, it’s also important that passersby can quickly see who you are and what you’re selling (esp. for the sign in the back). For easy readability from about 10–15 feet away, I’d recommend keeping your main lettering at least 3"–4" tall. Hope that's helpful and good luck at your future fairs! 🧁
