The art of making crafts is not a common skill. Sure, many people try it out, but it takes great talent to be able to make such an exquisite piece. You'll be able to come up with something all right; however, you will not be able to make anything even remotely intriguing to a stranger's eyes.
Fear not, however, there is still hope. Talents are easily developed; but have to be tempered with extreme pressure. Once you decide to start sharpening your skills, you'll need to let other people see your work and be able to take criticism. Knowing your weak point and improving upon them is essential to upping your skill level.
Initially, you will probably ask your close friends and family. While this is all well and good, their opinions alone will not be enough as they will definitely try to sugarcoat their criticisms. And this will not be useful for you.
Maybe you should consider getting ahead in the game and let other people see what you can do. Presenting your works to a larger circle of people is your best bet at improving your skill level. They'll give you harsher but truer criticisms, and thus let you see your weaknesses and you can then improve upon them.
There are dozens of craft shows that happen every year in the state of Idaho. It is important to pick the most appropriate craft show to attend, though. When you plan to showcase your craft, refrain from jumping in the first craft show you spot. Do a bit of research beforehand.
These days, it's very easy to get information with the Internet. Just search of Idaho craft fairs on a website browser or search engine and you'll be directed to a site with a lit of all shows that are scheduled to occur within the year. Soon, you'll be listing down events.
Don't be afraid to hear some harsh feedback from strangers! Only by braving the flames will you be able to sharpen your craft. - 16890
