An Ensemblo Kit
The First Craft Fair Vendor Kit
Everything you need for your first craft fair, maker’s market or holiday market table, in one kit.
Written for a hobby or side-hustle maker before their first booked table. Not a permit or tax authority: it gives you the questions to ask your organizer, tax authority or insurer, not the answers.
You’ve got a table booked at your first craft fair, three to eight weeks out. The closer it gets, the less clear the order of operations feels: whether it’s even the right event, how much stock to bring, what to charge, what to actually pack for the day, and afterward, whether it was the event or the product that didn’t work.
This kit is a coordinated set of eight sections: a vetting scorecard, calculators that turn your own numbers into a stock count, a price and a cash float, and a permit checklist that asks the right questions instead of guessing the answers. Fill them in, print them, use them.
Sold by Lemon Squeezy as authorized reseller. Sales tax or VAT for your country is added at checkout.
Instant download (PDF + Excel) · 30 pages · A4 + US Letter
This is for you if…
- You’re a hobby or side-hustle maker with a table booked at your first craft fair, maker’s market or holiday market.
- You want your own numbers, table fee, target revenue, price, turned into a stock count and a cash float instead of a guess.
- You want the permit, tax and insurance questions written down for you to ask, not answered for you.
Not for: a full-time vendor running a season calendar of shows, an event organizer, an online-only seller, or anyone selling food, cosmetics, candles or other specially regulated products.
What’s inside (instant download, fill in on screen or print)
The countdown feeds the scorecard, the scorecard feeds the stock and price calculators, and the event log feeds your next scorecard decision. That is what makes it a kit and not eight separate downloads.
- The First-Show Countdown
- nine dated steps from six weeks out to the evening after, each one routing to the section that handles it
- The Show-Vetting Scorecard
- ten questions with a point value and a stated cut-off, so you decide with the same test every time
- The Bring-Quantity Worksheet
- a stock count per product group from your table fee, target revenue, average price and buy rate. PDF and spreadsheet, formulas included
- The Pricing & Price-Sign Sheet
- your cost, time and table-fee share worked into three price tiers, plus a print-ready price-sign template
- The Day-of Pack & Cash Sheet
- a five-category packing list and a change-fund calculator that runs off your own price tiers. PDF and spreadsheet
- The Post-Show Debrief & Event Log
- table fee, stock taken and sold, revenue and sell-through per event, so the next vetting decision has your own data behind it. PDF and spreadsheet
- The Verification Checklist
- the exact questions to take to your event organizer, tax authority or insurer, with fields for the answer, the source and the date
Why it works
The countdown tells you what to do and when. The scorecard decides whether an event is worth the table fee, with the same test every time. The stock, price and cash-float calculators run on your own numbers, not on ours, and the event log feeds what you learn back into the next vetting decision.
Format & delivery
Instant PDF download, 30 pages, print-ready in A4 and US Letter. Three sections (stock calculator, change fund, event log) also come as fillable spreadsheets with the formulas already built in. No app, no login, no expiry.
What it is not
This is not a course. There is nothing to watch and nothing to hand in. It is not a prediction: no worksheet here tells you whether a specific event, price or product mix will sell, the calculators run on the numbers you enter, not on ours. And it is not a permit or tax authority: the Verification Checklist gives you the questions, your event organizer, tax authority or insurer gives you the answers.
FAQ
It’s a fill-in system, not a course: nothing to watch, nothing to hand in. You work the countdown, fill in the worksheets and take them with you.
The calculators turn the numbers you enter into a stock count, a price and a cash float, and the scorecard scores what you can check before you book. None of them predicts what happens on the day.
The Verification Checklist gives you the exact questions to take to your event organizer, tax authority or insurer, with a place to write the answer, the source and the date. Permit and licensing rules depend on your state, province, country and product category, and they change. This kit routes you to who to ask instead of printing an answer that could be wrong by the time you read it.
It’s built for a hobby or side-hustle maker before their first booked table at a craft fair, maker’s market or holiday market. It wasn’t built for a full-time vendor’s season calendar, for event organizers, or for online-only selling.
Under EU consumer law you have a 14-day right of withdrawal; because this kit is an instant PDF download, completing checkout means you consent to delivery starting right away, which under German law (§ 356(6) BGB) ends that right once the download has started.

30 pages, in both A4 and US Letter, plus three fillable spreadsheets (stock calculator, change fund, event log) with the formulas already built in.
