Dear Grace:

    In spite of the economy, I continue to do well in my 8 yr business,
    mostly of fused glass jewelry with dichroic pieces as well.  I try
    to focus on a variety of priced items, do the high end shows only in
    good locations; location, location, location.  The less expensive
    items sell well of course but the so do the high ends.  I've also
    branched out into teaching classes which are truly fun 'n the
    students then purchase supplies from me, ie: kilns, dichroic glass &
    findings. 

    It takes just as much energy to do a low end show as a high end
    show.  When I set up I place my lower end, trendy pieces on the
    aisle to draw people in.  My dichroic bugs sell well so they're
    placed where adults 'n children stop to admire them.  

    I'm always looking on TV, the mall etc. to see what's trendy 'n then
    do my own version.  

    I hope this has been of some help to you.  Please feel free to
    contact me off line if you wish & please don't get discouraged if
    you really love what your doing................
