South Carolina Craft Shows 2010

So, I have craft shows planned for some of the months this year, but not all. I am open to ideas for craft shows in or around Sumter, SC or anything else I could go to where people would be interested in my items. I do not know many people in Sumter, but would like to get out more and expose what I do to more people. I am pretty sure there aren't very many other people here in Sumter (maybe 1 or 2) who do what I do, and of those 1 or 2 (if they exist), I know they don;t make everything I make. So, if I could just get to the people of Sumter I believe this could become something I could actually live off of. Right now it is barely gas money, if that. If my husband didn't work we would be in trouble! One day I would like to have a store and he could help me run it instead of welding for barely minimum wage.

Anyway, I am so easily distracted lol and got way off subject. If anyone knows of anything in or around Sumter or Columbia SC as far as craft shows or something similar, please leave a comment here and let me know, I would greatly appreciate it! (comments can be anonymous)

Here is what I have so far:

March 19, 20, 12 - Spring craft show at the Sumter SPCA (Memorial building right next to it) on Guignard Drive

May 28, 29, 30 - Iris Festival at the Swan Lake in Sumter, SC

August (not sure of dates yet) - Summerfest in York, SC

September 25, 25 - Irmo, SC Okra Strut

October 15, 16, 17 - Oktoberfest in Walhalla, SC

And that is all I have. I am interested in street fair, shows, markets, or even renting a space outside of a business to set up a tent on the weekends, I am up for it! Please, let me know and thank you! :-)

I'm looking for some fall and Christmas shows in SC. If you know of any I'd appreciate the info.

BTW, your diaper cakes are amazing!
