Finally my elephants are complete!


Oh Mr Todd I could eat you up I really could Mr Todd!!
What a release to make something a little more creepy! So enjoyable making the 1920's swimming out fits. Wish I had a pair myself!
I'm selling these for quite a bit more as they took quite a while to make ...not that the others didn't! It's so hard trying to figure out a price and I'm realising that even though I checked out other doll makers on ETSY to see how much they charged and the ones I saw earlier on were about the $18 to $20.00 mark. I'm really feeling that they are under pricing themselves.
Even though you may be selling lots you will never make a living out of it.
I'd like to make a living out of my dolls and art work. and having my shop online is just a tester to see how they fair and how well I can keep a track of my book keeping!! So far so good.
I'll be back to work soon which means not much time for my arty crafty self.
There is even talk that at the end of the year I may be travelling to Europe, with my sister! YIKES!
I've never been over seas, and it kind of scares me a bit.
And it will be winter.....just like here in Tasmania now, but colder and maybe even snow!
It would be rather grand to see the Austrian side of my family and venture out into places unknown...maybe a few yarn stores...now that sounds exciting!
