The Beading Butterfly
Posted on Monday, July 4th, 2011 at 8:40 pm
How much would you pay for assorted hand made craft embellishments? In GBP please?
So I have made a number of things suitable for handmade cards etc, such as hand made flowers out of card with buttons in the centre, butterflies with beads and various other toppers.
How much would you be willing to pay on a site such as ebay for say a pack of 20 handmade flowers roughly 1cm x 1cm each, bearing in mind they are all unique and made by me.
Thanks x
People do not appreciate hand made stuff.
They do not appreciate how much effort, patience, time and skill goes into making these kind of things.
I’m sorry, its just the way the world is.
I am absolutely sure that what you have made is beautiful, tricky to make, lovely to look at and different from the usual cr** that is usually on sale.
I cannot tell you how much they might sell for, its a “just try” kinda thing.
There is a website called Etsy that people sell their stuff on that they have made. Have a look, see if that maybe guides you to a price and maybe a selling opportunity.
But don’t give up.
If you enjoy making these things then thats a good enough reason to make them in itself.
All the very best, jude xx
