Things for Sale

As I switch websites, I am exploring payhip for my online store.

For now I will gradually be putting up photos with information and pricing, so you can contact me if you see something you want.

I'm going to try a little something - subscriptions!  We'll need to see how this works with my health, so I will be limiting how many can subscribe

Plans start at $5/month, which gets you sale prices before the public, and for every three months of support you can select or commission a small object - ornament or bookmark for example, or keep the credit for later.

The $20 level get you sale prices before the small level, and every three months you can pick/commission two small items, one medium (such as a small scarf), or keep the credit for later.

At the $50 level you get the earliest notifications of sales, and every three months you may pick/commission four small or two medium, some combination of those, a larger item such as a shawlette or larger scarf, or save the credit for a larger item.

Commissions

There are some important things that need to be answered for me to give you an estimate on the items you want.

First, of course, is what do you want!

Next most important question is how are you willing/able to care for it?
Can you hand wash and lay flat to dry, or do you need to be able to just toss it in the washer? Do you have a washer that can do delicate/hand wash cycle? Fine lace will need to be stretched flat while damp and pinned if washed. This can usually be done on a bed, but it will be part of it's care.

What fiber do you want it in?
This works in combination with how you're able to care for something. While some fibers and fabrics are just fine in a machine washer, others are not. So I always take these two questions together. Is the fiber important? Environmental impact? The feel?

What is the item for?
While this may seem obvious, a decorative scarf or hat may work for a night in or a summer day, but not for winter, or blustery weather. Boot socks are often different from socks worn with regular shoes. Knowing how you envision using the item will help me direct you.

What is your budget?
Hand work takes time and skill, and costs more than bulk made items from regular stores. Some yarns and fibers are more expensive than others. Knowing your budget will help me see if I can work within your budget, make some suggestions for adjustments so it will fit, or if I can't.

What is your time frame?
As mentioned, hand work takes time. If you want a pair of socks in a week, that's not going to happen. If I need to find and order yarn, that takes time, shipping takes time, and I also need to take care of my health.

Color, pattern, details?
Color, size, how you want it to look are important as well.

Typically I will work up an estimate - both cost and time, possibly with some different options. If you hire me for your project, I also typically charge half up front, then the rest when I'm finished.

So contact me, answering the above questions, and let's make you something beautiful!
