need help with craft show requirements

[Guest guest]

dear listmembers,

i would like to do a craftshow this fall and i want to start making my

inventory now. i know that ideally i should be insured, have a tax-id number

and a no-impact business license, a fictitious name, a p.o. box or address

and a phone number listed on my products. . . plus maybe something else i

haven't even thought of yet. . .does everyone have this stuff ready before

their first craft show? or is it ok to just sell the stuff " under the table "

at a few small shows without all the paperwork? i'm interested in how most

people do it and what i must have before i try to get into a craft show. . .

thankyou for your help . . .
