How to Become a Sheep to Shawl Vendor
6 20% 5 24% 4 28% 3 32% 2 36% 1 40% 0 44% (If you enter fewer than 6 items for sale, you are required to work one shift per item. The commission will be increased over 20% for each required shift you do not work, following the chart above, i.e. if you miss one shift the commission will be 24%, if you miss two shifts the commission will be 28%, etc.)
Vendors are expected to work one shift in the shop. This rule hasn't been enforced in recent years but circumstances have forced the STS committee to be more strict. I have the shop sign up sheet along with the others involving getting the space ready and the equipment moved from storage to the fair grounds. I need lots of people to sign up for Thursday the 6th for checking in merchandise and setting up the shop. Vendors may contact me anytime to get inventory numbers. As a reminder, I put a number, a brief description and a price into the register, not quantities. You may have as many items under the same inventory number as you like as long as they are the same price. It is not necessary to group items by size, color, fiber, etc. I suggest you read the STS pages (23-25)in the Orange membership booklet to refresh your memory or if you have never read those pages now is a good time. All vendors except Wool Growers are provided neon green, red or orange tags or stickers for each item you have for sale. You may also use your own neon tags or stickers if that is more convenient. List the inventory number and your last name, clearly along with the price. If you have business cards that you use as tags in other sales venues please make sure that the only information, other than the printing of the card, is fiber content and/or cleaning instructions. No prices and no miscellaneous numbers. You are expected to police yourself regarding the 3 year rule, natural fiber requirements as well as the other guidelines for vending. Membership in Las Arañas is not required to participate in STS in any area. You may email the inventory sheets to anyone you know who would like to participate but please pass on the information on pages 23-25 so that person will know what's expected of them. Please contact me anytime for numbers, questions, suggestions or to sign up. 892-1825, clgieger24@msn.com.
