How fun!! I would love to help if I was closer! = D

I'm going to start a consignment on Friday with my b&b, so I really need to do my inventory today or tomorrow. Yesterday I ended up being lazy and watching the original Planet of the Apes movie. = D

Re: Whatcha making today?

kelly, I think shaking an baking a baby qualifies as work having done it myself. I mean, I cant claim to have made a human today :)

Jacque, how does your consignment work? are you working with a shop locally. I have thought about this for my own stuff but not sure its worth the work. Whaddya think?

Re: Whatcha making today?

Today I figured out how to make a collage of photos so I could list a sampler pack of truffles!
Whiskey plus Bailey's plus mint plus chocolate plus green = the perfect St. Patrick's Day sampler!

Re: Whatcha making today?

I made some really nice ribbon jewellery, will be posting next week. I also cleaned up some really old charms my boyfriends mum gave me to do something with. I took liberty and turned them into a charm necklace and going to give it to her on mothers day. The charms have come up really well. They were so black and grimey! Now they are silver and shiney! They belonged to her mother so hopefully it would be a nice gift.

Re: Whatcha making today?

Omg, Andi I'm so nervous! I've never done this before. But it is with a local shop who sells only handmade items in her shop. She's going to take in some of my products and pays once a month (ugh, I know), but I don't have to do any of the "selling" there.

I can come in at any time and cross check my inventory with her to count what's sold and what's left. I wouldn't do the consignment unless it was local because I'm not comfortable sending my products somewhere and not getting paid up front.

I plan to write something stating X is selling this for me via consignment. Payments are once a month. And that they're responsible for my products until sold (ie theft, store closure, etc).

I've been reading up on it here, not too many good reviews, but there are still good things said and lots of tips.

Re: Whatcha making today?

Katie Joy, that's such a sweet idea! I am mainly working at my day job today, so tonight I'll be finishing up a commission that has been taking me forever (huzzah!) and also working on my Matroyshka doll. I think I'll have her up by next week, and I can't wait! I have been sitting on this project forever and will now finally get a chance to complete her before I go on vacation!

Hey Jacque, have you done any craft shows with your B&B? I am doing one in April and not sure what I should make since my stuff is all custom. Anyone have any ideas? Scents, Colors?
