Little does it matter though, because no-one else has your uber-special pair of eyes, or your unique feel for colours, shapes, textures and materials, and which ones to put together. Thank you for the mention - ANY help you can give me with this blogging caper would be hugely appreciated. I've spent hours here today trying to get my febrile mind round it all!<br />Your new colourdy bangles are so yumptious!!!$90 for 40 bangles??That's absurd, chick! I've got myself in a complete state of confusion around pricing my own stuff, but there's no earthly reason why you should be underpricing your wares when there's wenches out there waiting for them with their tongues hanging out!!! <br />Well now, I hope you enjoy your stay in three year old land. If I can figure out how, I'm wanting to have a separate posting a week on my favourite designers, and seeing as you're the inspiration for me getting my act together, you will obviously take the first spot. I hope I do you proud.<br />Much love,<br />Petra xxPetra Carpreauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13634177424863587214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-637603317585526953.post-39270726012852524332011-11-11T15:38:57.293-06:002011-11-11T15:38:57.293-06:00A'ight, I answered my own questions.

When the maker was giving out talent, how many times did you get in line. LOL Love ya Fanci, love your talent too.

It's not about taking only 10 minutes or just using up excess supplies, it's about the time and effort it takes to make them, and the talent to do it. Talent is the invisible element people pay for in handmade jewelry, even if they don't realise it. To undercharge for your work is to disrespect your talent. So there. <br /><br />Also those colours gave me a boner. But I tell you, there must be something about the Australian air or something... I just CANNOT get that wax stuff to dry.Penelopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00552220520085713818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-637603317585526953.post-6203127670125995722011-11-10T20:36:01.906-06:002011-11-10T20:36:01.906-06:00You are a generous woman.
