 Holy monkey.  I sold this guy on my Etsy site today...

Yep!  Someone bought the Fire Dragon.  I think that's the most I've ever been paid for a single mask.  So it seems I can sell really expensive things there after all (as well as the impulse items like barrettes & pins).  That's very encouraging.  That's well over a thousand dollars of sales in a month, & compared to the kind of overhead I have when I travel to a show, this is costing me next to nothing.

Pretty cool.   Now I need to make another Frost Dragon & put it up.  Wait 'til everyone sees those beautiful icy blues. 

Happy Birthday (a day late!) [profile] shvetufae...stuff is getting mailed to you tomorrow.  :-)

"I'm trying to keep my prices fair but those BIG masks (Medusa, Dragon) just had to go for at least what I'd get at a show & they seemed to do well anyway."

You can't drop prices too far, or people don't have the perception of value. So far you seem to be striking a good balance.

You've got me wondering if I want to give it a crack. At first perusal, I didn't see anyone out there doing the type of thing I do. I just don't know that I've got the energy for it.

"I-Con is in April this year, by the way. About two weeks later than usual. Harlan Ellison is going to be one of the guests!"

Cool! I may have to try to go catch his appearance. I'll either drag you or Greg - the two of you can hash it out. But I'm taking one of you. I've got it on my calendar - I need to make sure that I don't schedule on top of it, and I need to remember to put in for a half a vacation day on the Friday. We're definitely taking the ferry again!
