Thank you for the comments John. Having done the same shows for some years you get an idea of what sells. I keep the basic things the same especially around the Christmas period as they always sell but try and have something that is different that attracts attentiomn. Mo's work does that but being more expensive we sell some but need a lotof simoler, qui cker to make things that are different. I find that the basic bowls, pens type of work is not very popular unless it is very different. These will be done in all sorts of different woods and to different designs, quirky sells well. The tipsy off centre range I started a year or so ago has been selling well as goblets, candle sticks and pillars and tazaas so that will continue to some extent.Doing shows you need to forget what turners like or dislike and make things that the public like and as much as possible that ylou enjoy as well.
