Yes, HK money is most definitely Monopoly money, same with Korean money (but not so much because the exchange rate is way more straight forward, makes it seem a bit more real). Thanks for your feedback on pricing, so true about crafty peeps versus non-crafty peeps (though on the flip side I think crafters also realise how much work goes in to things...), and thanks for the encouragement - I've already got an idea for my first non-festive wreath, which will combine my love of polkadots and pom poms and will be awesome!<br /><br />Hope you do make one next year, remember to send me a photo!ejorpinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11803356774463998436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034116958711987628.post-90931784454152902572012-12-18T22:45:43.254+11:002012-12-18T22:45:43.254+11:00Ooooooooh I want to do this!

Def on my list for next year, it is just so lovely, you wanna touch it and look at it lots!<br />I definitely think you should try to sell a few next year, as for how much I would pay is a hard question as crafty gals often want to make it themselves than pay for it so our prices are lower than what a 'normal' would pay ya know? I as a making person would pay around $300 hkd to save myself the trouble, but I think it is worth more like $450-550, like I wouldn't blink twice if I saw it in a shop for that much (weirdly if it were in GBPs, it would be less, I seem to think HKD is like monopoly money so I always spend more :D )Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00386106986167770424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034116958711987628.post-30498442062042001642012-12-16T15:16:40.142+11:002012-12-16T15:16:40.142+11:00Oh, gold and dark red - a classy, classic combinat...Oh, gold and dark red - a classy, classic combination! And thanks for your input on price - yes I am toying with the idea of making some to sell on Etsy through 2013 in festive and not-so-festive colour schemes, but considering the amount of work involved I wanted to get a bit of an idea of whether it would be worthwhile or not...it seems like it may work out okay, so stay tuned!ejorpinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11803356774463998436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034116958711987628.post-52916635846525810322012-12-16T15:14:50.542+11:002012-12-16T15:14:50.542+11:00My pleasure Jennifer!

If the wreath had coloured pom poms that I particularly liked (I'm a gold and dark red fan for Christmas decorations), I'd pay around $AUD80, maybe more if there were nice ornaments included like gold stars etc (like the silver one you have included. However I do love the silver balls as well, they go beautifully with the pom poms). A matching coloured satin bow at the top of the wreath would further entice me.<br />Gorgeous wreath! Have you considered making them and selling them on etsy?.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03751841392460034024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034116958711987628.post-62719011529910381672012-12-16T12:56:05.962+11:002012-12-16T12:56:05.962+11:00THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING A TUTORIAL INCLUDING...THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING A TUTORIAL INCLUDING WHERE YOU PURCHASED YOUR TOOLS!

I would happily pay $50 AUD for that delight, but if the colour way was right up my alley, I'd probs pay more - just don't tell the Captain! vancybechttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18133173713045801244noreply@blogger.com
