Book Fair Review!

Looking back at the book fair it wasn't exactly what i was expecting. Firstly the space i got to display my bookmarks was a lot smaller than i thought, in fact all the students from our college close to thirty of us, displayed on the same table making it look like a bit of a jumble sale. I made several copies of each of my bookmark designs but with the volume of things on our display table i just left a few of my piece's out. Also i originally assumed that i would stand with my display all day and greet and interact with people viewing and buying my pieces. Overall the book fair in my eyes was a bit of a let down but still i am glad that i experienced it. Surprisingly all the bookmarks i left on our table sold, although i had confidence in my bookmarks and expected them to sell i didn't think they would be seen with all the pieces being displayed. I still have several bookmarks that i didn't display at the book fair that i am going to have for sale along with some other bespoke pieces at the upcoming Promotional week that's being held at the Leeds college of art at the end of April, ill be posting more info about the event soon.
