You'll need to stockpile over the next few months, to have even more to sell at Christmas.

do you have a etsy or ebay site. You're stuff would really sell but you'd have to worry about shipping.
A friend and I are going to sign up for a stained glass class.

I'm sort of nervous because I'm really not good at that sort of stuff. good luck,my sis did that.Within a year she made the teacher look like an amateur,he couldnt believe how good she was. She is easily pro quality and could make a fortune doing it,but doesnt believe she can. We have several gifts from her,just beautiful things.

I've had to withdraw from my class before it even starts. My grandson is having his adenoids removed and tubes put in his ears so I'll be in GA for the very 1st glass and then I'll be back in GA for the 3rd class while my daughter is at a meeting. I figured since this is my first try at this I'll be better off taking the next class. I definitely don't want to miss the 1st class.

Those things happen. I had signed up for a water painting class for weeks time. First I was on stand by as class was full and then I got my letter saying I was in it. I had bought some of my supplies ,paper and paint and really needed brushes and was waiting on the list I need for supplies. I had taken vacation time off work and all and could drive there okay. An act of god burnt down the campus and they did not move it any where else like back college. Was up in the Mt campus. I figured that one week and 3 classes a day I would learn it or know I could not do it. $400 for the week and meals and room. I never got where I could go to it. They rebuilt the campus in time and last I looked $700 and two classes a day and meals and room. I am have time now but can not drive it. Or the money. I have never found another one. So my paints a lot dried up last time I looked and needs to be tossed out as I do not want to fool with hard paint. I can not water color. I can oil and acrylic paint sellable and did not want to add water colors. Cards and small painting I wanted to do to sell. Water colors are backwards it seems to oils. Here no way will I get to go to class. The senior center here years back they say hadoil painting. I donot know how well Pastor Mike paints but no classes now and I can paint. I have not painted in years. Be cause of eye sight. I had gone to minitures. Tiny stuff.
I have not made a single thing this year. Am on the same quilt top.
You do have to make things all to sell at Xmas time. It takes time to make things. Taks money to do it. Stuff is higher anad I never charge a high price as would not have sold anything that way in there. That valley you can not get the prices. I donot know how prices are here.

Yes Colorado prices are alot higher now .... I really do shop around for things I want and will need , If I don't then it just will not happen, My time is one thing, because I do not have a job, so it is not like I am taking time from my job... If I can do something and do it good , I will not charge alot for my time. I will charge for supplies plus some, a girl does have to make money!! I don't paint , I can draw some , my passion is crochet, and wood burning , I got a ordered a new wood burner today!! Yay!! Yup it better pay for it;self!! Everything I got cost 310.00 well a few things hubbs wanted me to get, plus he got some bits for making the box's .. I cannot w8 till it gets here now Whoo Hoo!!!

Colorado , I forgot to say I am so sorry to hear about your picture frame , Thats enuf to tick anyone off!! The wood burner is for burning pictures on wood. Pyrography is what it is really called. It is electric, I am using a very basic hard to handle one now.it is actually a soldering iron. It has ridges on the pen and hurts my fingers after a while, It also heats up ,and cools down, heats up, cools down, the new one will have two pens , removable tips, I can set the heat , only takes about 8 seconds to heat up. I will have a tip to do hairs and or feathers I cannot wait!! I have a nice book up north that has drawn pics of animals and birds!! If I can find me a lil printer for my Mac I will have unlimited stuff to burn on wood! I am also getting a cd set for tips and instructions and a book that shows, says it gives details on how to do an eagle head ..... I am really excited about this!! If you look on the 1st page here you can see some of the wood burning I have done... I am just perfecting my talent (Trying to) lol ....
