Craft Booth Planning Resources for Makers
A practical collection of tools and guidance to help makers plan booth layouts, prepare for craft shows, and create clear, shopper-friendly selling spaces — without overthinking it.
Start with Booth Layout
Booth layout affects flow, visibility, and setup stress more than most vendors realize. Planning your layout ahead of time helps setup go faster and makes it easier for shoppers to browse comfortably.

Planning principles we use
Plan before show day, not during setup
Design for flow, not perfection
Use repeatable layouts you can refine over time
Leave space for adjustments once you’re on site
More booth planning tools coming
We’re continuing to build practical planning tools to support makers at different stages of booth setup and growth. Everything we create is designed for real-world selling spaces and repeatable use.
No timelines. No promises. Just direction.
