The large condo community where I live has a 2-day art show each fall. You can display 2 items (although many people sneak in several more--next year I'll know better) and price them, or just display them as NFS.
I decided to display two pivoting menorahs, one walnut and one mahogany, and priced them at $95 each. Within a few hours on the first day, both had sold.

My area certainly has the demographics to support sales of Judaica, but I think the pivot concept could be adapted to make a secular or Christian-themed candelabra that will attract attention at any crafts fair booth. If I have a chance, I'll give it a go, but I thought I'd put the idea out in case anyone feels like trying.
As many of you know, I've resisted selling my work, but it sure does help pay for tools and materials!
