Hi Chelsea
Prints and postcards, I think. Bags would be tempting too.
Good luck!
Thank you very very much for your reply
I love pocket mirrors.
You possibly want to consider cards (the sort with an envelope) as well as postcards. I like to send people proper cards rather than postcards (its the excitement of ripping open an envelope to find something other than a bill or statement).
Cards and prints please, my daughter loves your illustrations.
I think pocket mirrors would be good as most of us could find a reason to buy a mirror, whereas some people only for example buy cards when a birthday or other event is due (not me, I have drawers full of cards but not everyone is like me ha ha!!!)
Another vote for cards (with envelopes) and prints.
(I don’t own a pocket mirror, really don’t want to be reminding myself how much my hair looks like a birds nest too often )
Hi, I agree with cards as the least initial outlay if money is the issue. Then totes and t-shirts for me.
Have a great and prosperous day.
Another vote for cards and prints but I prefer cards with envelopes over postcards too.
Bags would be a good idea, I always try to have one in my handbag (especially since the ‘carrier bag tax’ came in) They’re also a mobile ‘advert’ for your work (and Folksy in general if people ask your customers where they bought it from) and unlike T-shirts you don’t need to worry about having a selection of sizes. I don’t really use pocket mirrors, badges or stickers (but they might appeal to a younger market) To be honest as a cardmaker myself I think there are already a lot of cards and postcards available on Folksy so your work might be ‘lost’ in amongst the rest (I know mine seems to be sometimes )
I wish there were more customers like you Heidi @Textiletreasure, I could do with a few who have a card addiction
Ha ha - I’ve even decided to create a little binder, with plastic sleeves inside and then put inside them all the really lovely cards that I actually don’t want to give away, because they are such lovely designs in their own right! Trouble is, that’s going to make me buy more!!
I think your designs would make wonderful greetings cards too.
How about notebooks and pencil cases. Your images are great and would appeal to kids, so maybe going for school related items may be an idea.
Ha Ha I collect all sorts of things. My flatmate and my partners mum also collect cards.
Thats a great idea. Thank you
Like you I am not rolling in money so something I would use,bags.
Thank you I think totes are definitely the way to go
I have a candle addiction, but that’s not a practical suggestion
