Summer Art/Craft Show

Since I'm going to have a lot of time on my hands this summer I want to take part in a summer art/craft show. I got the table, the tent, display props, a few items I'm considering selling. Only I haven't settled on a logo, name, and color theme for the banner. I was wandering how you guys who sell at shows came up with your logos, names, and banner designs. Cause I'm a bit puzzled on what to do.

I had a shop on Etsy before I did a craft show. Thus, my shop name and banner were already in place. I used a version of my nickname as my shop name: Jojobean Designs. I used a graphic from one of my card designs for my shop banner and my own handwriting. When it came time to make a sign to hang in my tent, I used a version of the graphic and hand painted it. I had already chosen a font for my packaging and so I stenciled my shop name in the same font for continuity. You can see a bit of the tent set up and banner here: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.375343215868392.80257.123158681086848&type=3

Thanks, but I don't think I'm ready for Etsy yet. I think I will try hand printing the logo and name when I come up with a good one. I just want to give it a try for the summer since I'm always going to shows. I'm thinking about a friendly color theme with blues/greens since it's summer or maybe a natural color. Thanks for your advice.
