For the hat under water au, which is testament to why this app is full of wonderful people, what would the badge seller be? I can see him as a leafy sea dragon- Something that just appears and disappears, but what say you?

Awh thank you very much, very honored to be a cool tumblr guy to you! :D Ooh a leafy sea dragon huh? Now that's a cool idea, I never thought about incorporating their "glitchyness" quite like that. My idea is to make them a turtle, but that's also super neat! I love leafy sea dragons they're peak creature

thinking about how I had a few folks at my last market suggest to me (kindly and with good intentions) that I make and sell some versions of the hand knit cardigan I was wearing because people would "totally pay $300 for that!"

I appreciated the sentiment, but people don't understand what goes into handmade clothes! I don't use a knitting machine. Every stitch in that garment is created by hand on needles, and the sleeves were brioche. Even using inexpensive acrylic yarn for the whole project, and accounting for the HUGE sleeve stitches (saving me time making the sleeves)—the material cost was $55 and the labor was well beyond that.

Let's conservatively estimate the cardigan took me 30 hours to create. Currently, when pressed to put a dollar amount to my time, I use the living wage as a baseline and then go up from there $1/hour for every year I have been actively practicing that particular skill. In the case of knitting that would be 11 years, and the current living wage in my area is approximately $23/hour. Setting aside the fact that this is calculated based on a 40 hour work week and I don't believe that is ethical or sustainable, we'll just leave it at $34/hour. That would make labor alone $1,020.

This brings the "production cost" to $1,075.

Items are not sold at production cost because that would leave your profit margin at 0%. This is not sustainable because it costs money to run a business (think things like paying for computer repairs, buying tools, the tablecloth you use at markets, paying for a website, etc.). Realistically to cover business costs and still come out with a 7% "net" profit margin, which is just a number pulled from averages in the clothing retail business...

... I'd have to sell that cardigan for $1,350.

So yeah! Something to think about when you see the price of clothes that are handmade. :o)

• I’m still a sad bitch and want to order some dumb stickers just for fun to cheer me up a little (my birthday is February 28th. It was also my mom’s birthday, so this one is going to suck emotionally)

• any shares of this post would be helpful

• that’s it. If you read this far, thanks for sticking around. Thanks either way, really, but I guess you wouldn’t see this thanks unless you read this far so

Hey everyone - Times have been really tough, I'm waiting on a disability benefits decision that's taking months, and between medical bills for both my Mother and me and medical bills from my sick cat, we are doing really shitty right now with finances and couldn't afford to even get our cats more food today. It's gotten to the point that we're considering selling our Eras Tour tickets or some of my vinyls. I feel so vulnerable and scared making a post like this, but if you can do anything to help at all please check out my Etsy shop here.. you can also feel free to DM me if you want a specific bracelet made. Otherwise, if you're comfortable with it, my P.Pal is @ jenniferlmoore94 - I also have v*nmo, please DM me for information for that. Anything at all helps, and please reblog if you can! Some of the bracelets I have up for sale are under the cut ⬇️⬇️ Thank you!

Probably padawans developing interest in their own masters when they reach puberty is not exceedingly rare and i do think it fully happened to Obi-wan who suffered more than any other padawan before him from the shame and impropriety. And Qui-Gon was like no worries young padawan i have the solution.

sharing some of my pinned morpho butters with you hope that's cool 🥺👉👈 i got so excited to see your new framed one, it's absolutely gorgeous!

Oh these are all radiant! The blue shine is always so mesmerising to look at to me.

I'm guessing Rehtenor, Sulkowsky, Common Blue/Helanor and then Theseus? I would happily sell my soul for that Sulkowsky, it's such a pretty specimen!!
