Quick bit of market research! Opinions please on my cards (Wz -) in the Xmas Card Gallery to help me decide which to make more of for my forthcoming Craft Fayre !

Which (if any ) do you think will sell well. I thought of pricing at £2 for the more complicated snowman/reindeer type & the others less than that depending on amount of work.
I've made quite a few Xmas Tree Earring cards - so I hope they look OK!
TIA

hi whizzz!! why not make a selection of cards for sale, then they can choose which one they like. also you can get a gauge as to what people like too.

WitchyWhizzz · 28/10/2005 14:44

Yes I'm trying out as many designs as possible - hence the Wz range in OUR gallery .
I just wondered if people had an opinion on what was a 'good seller' rather than too quirky !

I'm trying to ensure that most of my cards have necklaces / earrings on them as I don't think there will be anyone else with that round here (so hope to corner the market !!!!)

Whizz....just a thought.
I have got a sizzix tag die here that cuts little envelopes that are really pretty if you use them on scrapbook papers.
I could cut you some out of christmas themed scrapbook papers for you if you want to have something a bit different to pop your jewellery into. Not everyone wants to buy a card with jewellery on....but they may want the jewellery IFYKWIM.
Email me if your interested and I'll send you a piccie of the envelopes.
JM.

Whizz.. I really like your new psychedelic (?sp) tree with the lolly stick. I also like your earlier Rudolf and Mr Snowman ones. I think they are all great though and are sure that you will sell out at the fayre. I think JM's suggestion is fab... if people only want the jewellery you will have a gorgeous way of sending them home with it. I don't know how long they take you, but your charm bracelets sound gorgeous. They could be popular trinkets too.

Great idea JM, what genius !
I have emailed you!!

Thanks for the comments - I'm going to do a few more funky foam ones ie trying to make stuff that you don't see in the shops.

I'm trying to think of something that doesn't involve a pice of mulberry paper in the middle

Whizz, you could also make boxes, like
these ones and better diagram here

They look very effective made out of Christmas cards, but also nice paper.

WitchyWhizzz · 28/10/2005 21:08

Ooo they look good too !
