I thought about that but I still might want one so I'd better hang onto it.

I'd feel the exact same way, but hey if you ever finding yourself in need of the extra room it's taking up, shoot me a message and let me know!! lol

I will remember that. Be sure to post some of those feathers you do once you get one.

These are beautiful. One tip I'd offer, if you're interested, would be to make something with a cat eyes theme. People love cats, especially if they could also pass as dragon eyes. If you have any rhinestone studs, they could be a low-cost trick to improving salability. Adding rhinestones to the corners/border, or as an accent for flowers, would make them more visible if your vendor space isn't very well lit. They'll reflect whatever light they can catch. It's a small thing, but it's worth playing with. Best of luck out there!

Coasters do well also. Nice work!

Wow I never thought about adding "bling"! Or the eyes either,  if I'm being honest, lol, thank you for the suggestions!!

Beautiful work.  You'll sell out in no time.

What is your source for the metal clips?  I have several granddaughters that would love a grandpa-made gift like that.

Thank you. If I remember correctly I got them at Hobby Lobby

Another tip, if you're still considering products to offer, would be to invest in some wooden sticks as an alternative to metal clips. Hair sticks are pretty popular, and I've seen some neat combination sets that include sticks and a leather patch, usually by way of a slot carved into the leather, or by adding tiny straps to its back side. If you're any good with wood, you could carve them yourself from some smooth holly and add an authentic "100% handmade in America" tag to your products. (Little things like that encourage me to open up my wallet and support local artisans.) I don't even wear hair accessories besides my hat and bandanas, but if I come across a pretty little art piece made without imported hardware, I might buy it just to help out the seller, and use it to decorate my room.
