Retail Display Solutions for Your Craft Show Booth Dilemmas

This week on the Craft Business Challenge: gorgeous retail display ideas that are portable enough to be used in a craft show booth. Plus, an affordable way to create a display with real impact.

My photos of craft display ideas continue to be the most popular articles on this site. And since we haven't looked at displays in a while, I thought I'd share some of my favorite photos of retail display solutions that are portable enough to use at craft shows. 

Independent retail shops can provide fantastic ideas for your craft booth. Unlike chain retail store owners, indie shop owners aren't limited to corporate merchandising requirements. They can use their own ingenuity to create fantastic displays that will often translate well into a craft display.

Indie shop owners have to be frugal and clever with their displays, just like craft artists. Their display ideas are often inventive and portable enough to be used in a craft booth.

When you get a chance, pay a visit to your favorite local indie retail shops for display inspiration. Consider making a purchase or two while you're there. Small business owners need to stick together and support each other. :) 

To get you started, this week I'm sharing several of my favorite displays at fantastic retail shops that feature beautiful handmade products.
