my pen collection and card holders

I’m not sure of the fair prices these days…but nice work! I enjoy making pen/pencils once in a while….but get bored of it when doing too many. I like the card holders…that adds a neat addition to a set of pens. There is usually alot of pen crafts at the shows….pens, bottle stoppers, earrings….those seem to be the most popular.

The only suggestion that was given to me by a friend that does crafts shows is keep the price down as low as you can, as the folks that come to these are cheap….if your prices are too high then they usually think they could just do it themselves….she also recommended to make your prices like $29.50 or so …and not use the next number up…some folks see this as $20 instead of $30. Its a psychological thing.

Good luck though….and most of all have fun.

Nice job on the pens and card holders. I do a few of the card holders, because they make great gifts to other business people.
