I was going to put some crafts in a local Christmas bazaar we are having in my community. I don't have any idea how much to ask for the items and I don't know if they are good enough, or cute enough, or if anyone would like them - the business I want to start is called

*CATS WITH WINGS* What do you think of these I have other things but these are the most time consuming because of all of the tiny little bits to sew. Also do you thik I should wax dip the big white cats? Please be brutally honest .

My brutally honest opinion is... they're adorable! I'm sure they'll sell!

Price-wise, it really varies from area to area. In my hometown, things go for much less than where I live now-- and we're only fifteen minutes away! I'd get to some local craft shows before then and compare prices in your area.

Good luck!

How much did it cost you to make them and how much time involved?

 

[mrscornbread]

I always at least double what I have spent to make them, if it is something that was very inexpensive, then I go about 3x's. Hope that helps.

 

[JUSTAMOM]

Awwww, I'll take 1 of each!

I didn't keep good records of anything - the average time is about 45 minutes on each of the sewn ones. They are kindof done in layers and then I had to turn and stuff. The little faces are embroidered. I think I spent about 18.00 on the stuff for the little fleece kitties and I have enough to make 50 of the littl bitty ones. Those I actually have down to about 25 mins each - the little hanging kitties were the really time consuming ones (the red kitties) and I think I figured $6.00 would actually pay for my time and materials but sounds kind of pricey to me. Bruce said $8 but he doesn't know what people spend on crafts.

I think they are terrible and to save you from embarrassment send them to me and I'll take care of them for you :toothy:

 

[kimmee]

You butt!!  :catfly:

 

[niceday]

once again I will say Kimmee you are very talented........great job

 

[qponfanatic]

I have to agree with Angie.....I wouldn't want you to try to peddle those anywhere, so just split them betwixt Angie & I and save the embarrassment!!


:laugh:


They're awesome!! But I'm clueless on the rest!!

 

[kaykwilts]

They're too cute!

 

[qponfanatic]

Hey now....I think the people with the most cats should have first dibs on who gets them!!!! I have 5 cats!!!!:toothy:


Really Kimmee, they are adorable! I'd spend about $6 each on them easily at a craft show.

 

[qponfanatic]

Well, I'm out of the running as I only have 2 cats. But I would pay $6.00 for them.
