Small producers...

[telophase]

I'm stealing an idea from sartorias last year, because I know I have a lot of creative people 'round here who write, do art, make sock monkeys (more than one!), etc., and hey! there's gift-giving seasons coming up, and a lot of people who like to give creative, unique, or otherwise hand-made gifts.

So ... if you make or produce something for sale in some way and would like to post it here in the comments, please go ahead! (Er, if I get around to it, I'll concatenate them into a nice organized listing. Don't hold your breath.) Prints, photos, commissions, jewelry, sock monkeys, keychains, comics, books*, costumes, whatever! Have fun!




* If you're a published author of any ilk, feel free to post!

ETA: And since I stole the idea from sartorias, I'll just point out that she is also an author with books you may wish to consider.

I wish I could participate! Lord knows I've got the ability to do all kinds of needlework, but I don't believe I have anything finished or posted to my craft gallery that would inspire anyone to commission something from me.

Hey, you never know! At any rate, this post will still be here if you decide otherwise. :)

Okay, I'll bite.

I am a stitcher: cross-stitch, needlepoint, drawn/pulled work, punched-paper, beading, and traditional hardanger. I am also a horrible photographer, explaining the really bad pictures from my craft gallery here (http://www.badnoodle.com/gallery/crafts).

Although most of the pictures in the gallery are from published patterns, I am quite capable of doing custom/original design using any of the above techniques. Cost would be dependent on materials and size. I could do something similar to the ornaments found here (http://www.rainbowgallery.com/freechartdownloads.cfm?ID=16) for $15-$20, but a larger piece with silks or beading would be more.

Drop a line in my lj, or at badnoodle/gmail.
