Not sure if this idea is any different but you can try having a neatly printed price sheet with pictured examples on the sides/above/under. Nothing really strikes to me of a "cuter" way to display prices other than possibly adding ribbons and laces around some frame, or drawing in a framing detail on the price sheet...

>price tags
Ugh I swear I always leave that last on my things to do, and it's bad since they look all that great. I fold cardstock into tents and write some detail and price, and attach flat cards on vertical displays. I carry extra cards so I can add/change my signs, even jazzy colored sticky notes to express any deals/discounts.

I wouldn't worry too much about people noticing the price before the item, so often I get people asking what is the price even though it's clearly priced. What you can do is find a balance in text size by writing/printing it out, and stand away from it and try reading it. You don't want something too big that would be distracting and take up space, and you don't want it to be too small or else it can get lost.

Thank you for the tip about the rubbing alcohol to get rid of lint! I still have quite a stash of sculpey left, I'll have to give the clay another try.

>kigurumis
Would sell well at big cons and not baby cons where not many people would drop a lot of cash.
>plushie backpacks
Try a few and see, I would think they'll sell well too. Make them nice and worth the price, especially lining them. Also, printed bags are great as well.
>puffy fleece hats
They better stand out among the many fleece hats at cons. What makes them different from the other zillion cat/dog/rabbit/"zodiac" hats?
>miniature polymer clay sculptures
Hit and miss, depends on what they are I guess. In general, people are fussy about prices so if you have something smaller than a palm-size and you're selling it for over $30, it's... tough. Things like that make me reconsider about doing clay items because I'm a perfectionist and I want to be paid fairly for my wares. The table with the lady selling dragon sculptures are nicely detailed, and I can see them as a hit at fantasy cons of sorts.
>decorative zipper pulls
That takes me back, I used to have some of my clay charms on zipper pulls, different from necklaces and phone charms, you know? They are a hard seller, but that's just me. If you have the right design and display, I don't see why you can try them. Besides if they don't sell, I'm sure you can change them over to phone charms or such.
>terrarium necklaces
Yes yes yes. Origami ones work nicely, even tiny clay ones of the fairies from Zelda are fun too. Anything in tiny glass jars is cute as heck but consider about packaging them for selling. Like, wrap them up in tissue when someone buys one for a bit of protection.

Yea that's fine, I have seen artists advertising for commission but must provide reference if they don't know the character.

Not a lot of comics, some simple advice ones or experiences.
