While on vacation I found these cute little cover ups to make for large packs of gum and mints...I made a few to put in my booth this weekend at my craft sale. Might draw a few new customers into the booth!

I'd love to see pictures of the cover ups. Am trying to use my imagination and going to guess it's some sort of holder? Hope you do well this weekend at your craft sale. How many different items do you sell? I would like to hear about or even see more of your crafts. I know you've posted some pictures in the past and you are so creative. I'm not going to do any craft fairs this year. It's just too hot now. I had a booth with 2 other ladies and they both made jewelry and knitted scarves, etc. I made and sold items made with plastic canvas and actually some of my things were so bright and potential customers were so curious we had better sales if my items were out in front and not tucked away in the back.

I have uploaded a picture three times and it doesn't appear. I'll try again tomorrow. I sell my books, framed poetry that I paint the borders on..greeting cards...painted windows....and misc. things. like refrig magnets...you buy the clear plastic frame from walmart and either stamp something to put inside or do a saying on the puter and then on the bottom part you put post it notes...they are fun...sounds like you have pretty good luck.

Sounds like a good idea, anything to draw customers in to your business is a plus. Do you have pictures?

Hi jillhill. These cover ups for gum and mints sound interesting. Are they knitted or sewn or what? Made from cloth or yarn or something else? They sound like something that people would buy for fun. As I like to knit, I was just wondering how they are made and from what. Pearl Grace

THey are made from paper.....see the response above....but it you can knit I bet you could figure out a little pattern and make them like a little purse for girly girls to carry around....maybe with a long handle so they could tie them around their belt loops or something.

Hello, jillhill. I am sure that someone who is a good knitter could figure out a pattern for them. The picture of your gum coverups was very nice. They are so cute! I bet you are going to sell alot of those to teens and women. Good luck! PearlGrace
