Geometric Necklaces

I've been busy! In the past couple of days I made these felt necklaces and did a little amateur photo shoot with some space shoes (I'll show the photos in another post) and to top it off  I started my last year of schooling today, juggling a photo shoot requests from a local magazine and 9 pending space shoe orders! I've been busy and I'm gong to stay busy apparently.
I have, however, found time to make these felt necklaces the newest addition to my Etsy store. I hand cut them from sheeted felt, generating the asymmetric pattern as I worked, making each truly unique. The 'thicker' one in the second and third photographs has already sold, but the thinner one is still available here and ready to be shipped.

How much?

So I'm nearly sure I'll be selling space shoes, and possibly other painted shoes on Etsy in the very near future. I have ideas about pricing, but I was wondering what you guys think. Please comment and let me know ~

1. How much would you like to pay for shoes like this?

2. How much would you expect to pay for them? and

3. What is the highest amount you would pay?

(Please include which currency you are referring to. Australian or US dollars would be most convenient.)

Any feedback would be much appreciated. The quicker I work out pricing, the sooner I can start to sell :D

More space, more shoes.

I've been busy busy making more shoes and, most importantly, I got a stamp! Haha, I love it, it says my name and everything! But apart from my excitement over the new stamp, I've been trying to work out a few things with this little 'business'. It feels so odd to call it that. I'd really like to set up an etsy account but as I don't have a credit card I'm still working out the logistics. If you're really set on a pair, stay tuned to see what happens with that, or email me and maybe we can work something out privately. Thanks so much for the lovely comments and all the interest and support from my friends and family. (I'm painting up some pairs for my little cousins, how cute will that be?)

Simplicity

Currently inspired by natural woodgrains, nature and simplicity. I'm probably breaking some blogging rule by reposting these, but I find them so fascinating and lovely. From Bmjnyc's etsy.

perfectly imperfect

I am quite fond of raedunn's simple ceramic works. Each natural and unique.

Nice

A romantic light shade from Catlin's etsy shop, nice.

Topographically Inspired

As you can see, I couldn't decide between the photos. Lovely cards from Crafterall on Etsy.

Trace Face

I love these silhouette doily prints from tracemyface on Etsy.

Found via Nest, which offers all readers free shipping from the tracemyface shop.

Sarah Seven

Okay, I'm pretty sure that by now EVERYONE knows about Sarah Seven, but I couldn't help posting these gorgeous pictures of my favourites.

Absolutely Divine, no?

Sarah also has a loverly blog, here. Enjoy.

99 Feelings

Artmind on Etsy has a beautiful project entitled 99 feelings. She creates unglazed ceramic babushkas which each represent a feeling. I like how raw the sculptures appear, it emulates the feeling more strongly, to me. Projects like this inspire me. You can see every single feeling here or watch a short montage on artmind's blog.

Message in a Bottle

MinatureRhino offers the cutest service on etsy. If you provide her with a message, she'll type it on to vintage book paper with her adorable typewriter, seal it with an itty-bitty wax stamp, place the whole lot in a tiny glass vial then top it of with a pretty monogram-stamped key. What an adorable way to send a note to the one you love.
