Displaying your Market Stall

Getting the right feel for your market stall is paramount. Customers like to feel visually quenched when they look at your stand and if your layout is interesting they will stay longer and hopefully buy something.

I spent a lot of time at the last Northside Makers taking in the techniques and hardware that people had used to display their market stock.

Miss Pepperberry uses rustic wooden boxes to display their fabric covered journals.

Behind the stall, the bottom box is reversed and used as the "admin" centre for this stall.

Another stall, Two Cheese Please, also has an admin centre behind their stall.

She uses stainless kitchen cupboard stands covered in felt for her display.

An additional level is created by some hard card covered by felt sitting on jars of buttons.

I find the appearance of DVD and CD stands quite funny, scattered throughout the market being used to display all sorts of things. The first grand stand is one that Miss Pepperberry uses to show her passport covers.

Another stall uses a CD stand to hold cards.

Mrs Beckinsale uses a letter stand to hold her gift cards.

I've got lots of other snaps of strategies that people use for displays, but perhaps another day! Have you posted any cool display tips on your market stall??
