I recently read an article that made me say YES the whole time I read it. Many of you may not know it but I make wreaths for your doors. That is any door. Front door, bedroom, Kitchen, whatever you like.
"BACK TO SCHOOL WREATH"
"MILITARY WREATH"
Army
I also make Marine, Navy, Army, and Air Force.
Anyway. People have left mean comments about that I charge too much. Or if your prices were cheaper I would buy one. But what people don't understand is that there is a lot that goes into it. All my time and effort. It takes several hours if not days to make these. I have to drive to the fabric store to get fabric and to the craft store to get wreath forms and ribbon (which cost gas), bring the fabric home and measure and cut 3 yards of fabric (this takes several hours to a day to do since I am a SAHM and have 3 kids to take care of), then I have to put the fabric onto the wreath and apply the ribbon or 550 cord and any accessories that was requested. After all this is the delivery process. Which can be driving across the island (since I have some costumers that feel driving to meet me is a waist of their gas. I am sorry but it cost the same damn amount of gas to drive to you as it would for you to drive to me, your just too lazy to get off ur ass and pick up the stuff u ordered) or can be driving to the post office to ship somewhere. Shipping cost from here to the Mainland is a bit pricey. From 13.95 to 18.95. Not to mention it cost 50 bux to ship to Canada.
I only charge around 40.00 minimum for most of my wreaths. Which is way less than I should be charging. But I do so to try to beat the competition and also let my customers have a great price. But I have realized that my competition charges WAY more for her wreaths but they are getting WAY more business than I do. So those hypocrite people who say I charge too much go there to buy. And mine is WAY better quality. But I am partial.
Anyway. I have done my venting for the day. Read this article to see what I am talking about.
