oooh!

i can't afford that, can i?

Which one?

[neva_ivan]

I don't even know what I would charge for anything.

For a while I was going to try to sell my bead work, and I went to fairs, and it was a stunning failure. I could go on and on about what went wrong, but it just wasn't working for me.

So, now I just make stuff and pack it away in boxes, so honestly if you wanted something, I'd probably be better off just selling cheap. Except, you know how that feels, you at least want your supplies paid for and something for your time....

Because of these conflicted feelings, and the fact that I work 40-45 hours a week and I'm rescuing and caring for all these sick and onrey animals, I'm not selling my work. I just show it off here so people can stroke my ego a bit.

So, I guess the bottom line is that if you wanted something, I'd be happy to trade, or you could make an offer. Or if you feel your money/time/whatever is limited at the moment, but just want to leave nice comments here, that's cool too.

I really like #3, and I have an idea of the kind of time and effort that goes into something like that, since I've done beadwork myself.

What is the necklace length on that?

It's a short necklace, but I can measure it tonight when I get home. My guess is 20 inches, and it hangs around the collar bone area

My mom and sister both do beadwork like that, but I must admit that your stuff is a bit better. And that slave bracelet rocks!! What about trying to auction a few on Ebay and see what happens? Your beadwork really IS excellent!

Thanks
