    Default what to make for flea markets and craft market

    I have been going to flea markets and in the fall will be doing craft markets. What has been selling well at the flea markets and craft sales?

    quilted cell phone and tablet cases with Velcro closure. Doesn't protect if unit is dropped but keeps screens from scratching.

    I would suggest coasters. I made several in seasonal fabrics for a church bazaar and my granddaughters teachers for Christmas. Very easy to make. Also, I might suggest Mother and Daughter matching aprons.

    I think the microwave bowl holders would sell fast. We use our every day of the year!

    Fabric Christmas Tree ornaments have sold well for me. Not a lot of pot holders, but the ones that did sell were the intricate/unique paper pieced ones.

    Anything under $5.

    10 years ago I used to sell $100 items. Not any more.

    Dolly quilts might go well. They are pretty quick, and you can showcase one by having a doll in a bed with one on her.

    IMHO microwave bowls will be done by the thousands at fall shows....to much competition there.
