Hey Eric, Nice to see a posting here. There really is a lot to consider for being part of the Faire, both for fun and profit....and the more profit, the more fun. I'd definitely tackle the 'shopping' design and inventory before I'd worry about making much shop adjustments. We had quite a bit of unused display space (mostly in the back room), but in general, it's kind of a challenge to "showcase" such a diversity of ironwork that we had. I would underscore the importance of *quality* ironwork...but I think people at the Ren Faire are expecting the work to be thematically congruent to Renaissance or "medieval" as well. But the faire owners seem to have given a wide berth for anachronistic stuff. Can't say I have answers, just plenty of questions.
