Prepare a nice cover for your table. Place a table cloth that reaches down the floor and covers all the sides that can be seen by the public. Make sure that any boxes that you keep underneath will not be seen. Nobody would want to visit, much more buy from, a sloppy looking, shabby craft show booth. Your display should not look like it was just thrown together from leftover items in your garage.

People would think that your products are of low quality if the first thing that they see is a dirty, shaky table with scratches and all. The impression that you want to give is that you spend a lot of your precious time perfecting your craft and skills. And the time that you spend in making sure that your display will reflect that will all be worth the while.
