Does anyone have advice on setting up my booth in a way to successfully attract people to come and browse (or hopefully buy something?) Or any [...]
I shop at the Arnold MO WM, it would be a shame if they would close. Why close all the fabric departments in smaller communities, where the people have a long way to go to get their fabrics, notions, and craft items. I believe that Wal-mart has not done its homework…This department is very important [...]
