I made this lanyard for Iggi a while back. :3
I love doing it as well, I just don't have the funds to really get myself the wire or rings. Not to mention I wouldn't even know where to begin trying to sell them if I were to try opening up for commissions
With no real source of income I can't really go to conventions, and even then there's lots of other people to compete with as far as business goes. xP
That's true. I know there are others like me out there, but I seem to specialize in the more micro or feymaille spectrum, so I can set up at things like craft shows as well. I seem to do well with those. I've done a few conventions as well.
Well congratulations to ya :3 May you be even more successful in the future~ I know the only thing I ever tried was a renaissance fair. x3
Thanks! but yeah... ren fairs, I avoid selling at. Besides, they want too much money for me to set up there. :/
You're welcome =3
Yeah, the only reason I got a chance to try at the ren fair was my mother had a close friend who offered to let me set up shop with her. x3
Ah, lucky! A friend of mine used to be a gypsy and such. Or, as they called themselves, Rennies. She's the one who inspired me to learn to do this stuff.
Oh, fun, I got into it because an old friend of mine used to carry around her own tiny satchel of rings and such and she would randomly work on pieces whenever She was hanging out with me and some of my other friends. Haven't really done a whole lot with all of the rings I have since I stopped though, might try picking them up again and see if I can't come up with anything new.
