Louisiana Etsy Artist Event review Maker Faire Austin Texas

Hey yall. Have been working on a new feature where a local Louisiana Etsy Artist reviews an event. The latest review comes from Heather Macfarlane and Unique Products.
The Name of the Event was Maker Faire. It was held in Austin TX.
The theme/focus/nexus of the event was making stuff.
Our booth space was approx 10 by 10 and we decorated it like NOLA.

Interesting artists/booths/vendors I liked : there were too many to list - let me think not that many craft booths.
The crowd was best described as family / crafters/ geeks.
Our best customers were evacuees or people who love NOLA
The event cost free to participate and was juried.
Our advice about doing this kind of event is that this is not a selling event but make of a demo / ideas sharing - so we demoed 3 different projects

Our next market/event is swamp fest, this weekend at the New Orleans Zoo, November 3-4, 2007.
