Ren Faire Vendor: pattern/plushie ideas?

Congrats on the vendor spot!

Fairies, dragons, LOTR, DnD related patterns (dice bags), magical patterns (crystals, potions bottles etc.).

Hope it goes smoothly!

ETA: moon phase things, forest / nature theme things, outdoorsy things*

A smaller version will be released in a few days :) But I totally understand if that is not what you are looking for

Just finished a pattern for a baby Mothman, and a yeti will be published in 13 hours! I’ve also got a cute plush witch hat pattern that works up pretty quickly, and it’s wearable!

If you don’t have a show stopper piece yet, and you can get your hands on some crafting wire some crochet lacy fairy cosplay wings would be an insane thing to see for sure. You could even do crochet dragon cosplay wings.

Outside of that maybe some ren faire style weapons like Maces, swords, etc. I know those viking helmets with the fake beards for kids are always really popular any time I go. Foraging bags/ any kind of pouch you can attach to a belt. At the ren faire I used to go to back home flower crowns were also super popular. Cryptids are also popular at ren faires. and anything witchy, even if it’s a cat plush with a witch hat.

I also think if you get some smaller yarn like acrylic you could EASILY turn a lot of your plushies into keychains, people adore being able to show off the franchises and hobbies they have on their bags.

Actually, keychains are some of my worst sellers (so i stopped making them), but I do have a deal that you can add a keychain to your purchase for $1

I already have a few showstoppers! I’m trying to focus on plushies mainly, because I said I make plushies and plants on my application and don’t want to stray from that, as I know there are other crochet vendors selling other types of crochet

This doesn’t necessarily fit a ā€œRen fair vibeā€ but I know axolotls sell pretty well. Something that would fit the vibe are maybe some mermaids! I’ve seen some mermaids at Chrochet stalls and it attracts younger kids too. :grin:Good luck! :four_leaf_clover:

This is a cute bundle if you want something quick and small for maybe a toddler or younger audience, or even a quick sell for something on someone’s desk or home.
