    We found a woodturner studio in Christchurch, NZ on our recent holiday, and he was doing good trade in wands. Our HP fan snagged a nice number in Yew. If you would like to see a photo, let me know and I'll post one.

    Light pulls always go well. Think small stuff you can put in a bowl on your stall. A few bigger more expensive things at the back but stuff under £10 (sorry, don't know the conversion to dollars) tends to sell best.

    Good luck
