I had a booth at a craft fair recently, and wanted to bitch-slap a couple of people after they had a few rude comments about my products AND my prices! What they didn't realize is that I was selling my products at HALF the price it sells for in boutiques! <BR/><BR/>Don't ever apologize for your prices!

How much would you charge for a SIGNED edition? :) Your work is priceless, and I cherish it.

That is so unbelievably rude. That person has obviously never put their time and heart into creating something, or purchasing supplies for it. $50 is so fair - probably too cheap but you are still consciously trying to keep it to where people can afford it - yes you are using God's talents, but it takes precious time from your family and this is your business - AND you are buying the supplies - canvases, brushes, paint, sparkles - it all adds up. I am really aggravated for you at that comment.Isaac's Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08460434123945925363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580053936680043373.post-69469013015645828642008-11-24T17:41:00.000-06:002008-11-24T17:41:00.000-06:00cool!! congrats on being a blog of note! feel fre...cool!! congrats on being a blog of note! feel free to stop by my blog anytime...! :)<BR/><BR/>www.xoxoimawriter.blogspot.comMollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14238815508505975230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580053936680043373.post-29418555556131354112008-11-24T16:55:00.000-06:002008-11-24T16:55:00.000-06:00I totally sympathize with this post!

Because our inventories are custom and small, most of us don't or can't buy raw materials in bulk quantities. Then add on shipping & packaging materials, then postage, insurance, return receipts, on and on. You have to price it right or you can't continue to offer your art!

Your prices are extremely reasonable. However, there are many artists out there that are expensive. And then there are those that buy prints that cost as much as the original. Now that's a different story.

I've blogged about this very issue - I've had a drawing for years that is the most wanted piece of art I've ever done, but no one actually wants to pay for it. I've actually had people ask to <I>borrow</I> it for a while, since I'm not doing anything with it!

Designing takes time, there are other costs and i would more than welcome anyone advice if they would prefer to make their own.<BR/><BR/>i was happy to see that you didn't apologize for your prices. You are quite reasonable (in my book) and your site is delightful!<BR/><BR/>Come on, Anon, are you really going to feel better buying some trashy Wal Mart gift, or giving something unique made just for someone you care about?<BR/><BR/>Buy "HAND MADE" this holiday season!
