get a bunch of these

I was thinking about getting them at Michaels or AC Moore (they always have 50% off coupons).  This was the coat rack I was talking about.

The coat rack or clock movements from the craft store??  The coat rack I think was about $150.  Not sure about the clock movements yet.

I won't ever do another craft show EVER!

I did them for fifteen years. It is a hard grind. Of course it depends on what you want out of it. As a hobby it might be fun, but as full time work it was grueling. There were two frustrating things. The shows we die were juried. You send in slides and pay a fee to have the jury look at them and decide who gets in. So you pay money and may never get into the show. Then you pay the booth fee, and they can be quite expensive, travel expenses, and there is no guarantee that you make sales. There were times when the money was great, but more times when we didn't even break even.

yeah, I saw a cool coffee table on ebay.  I just doubt I have the skills to do it, and not sure if I want to invest in the tools and the "learning curve".
