[dreamcatchings]

As much as it pains me, I think I have to cancel Christmas this year. Even making $2.50 more an hour, I am bleeding money and funds out seems to be exceeding funds in, which means that to make ends meet, I probably need to get a part time job.

Oy.

*hugs* You could make the gifts? Or have a fundraiser thingy and use that money? Moving is always a finacial strain, that with everything else... The Holidays are about love, not material possessions. *hugs again*

*hugs back*

Yeah, I know. I just always really like spending time finding the perfect present for people and wrapping it and then mailing it and knowing they're going to love it. I might try and see what I can make, but my big thing is dreamcatchers and just everyone I know has one by now.

Thanks, though.

Just a thought...but how hard to make/elaborate are your dreamcatchers? Anything you could put up on eBay for some extra holiday cash?

[magikfanfic.livejournal.com]

I have considered that in the past. I'm just not sure if anyone would actually pay me money for them.

Here's (http://pics.livejournal.com/magikfanfic/gallery/00001ywr) a link to them. I'll leave it up to you guys to judge if you think they're marketable.

*hugs* You poor thing. Moving sucks in more ways then one. It really does. I agree with Diane. What about possibly selling your dreamcatchers?

[fuzzytale.livejournal.com]

Look like the ones you pay through the nose for in tourist places, I'd say it's worth a shot putting a moderately elaborate one up and seeing if it goes for enough to make it worthwhile. Possibly offer to do custom ones?

[magikfanfic.livejournal.com]

*nods* Yeah, I don't mind custom ones. I've done them before. The only problem with customs is that sometimes the person wants something I don't have that can require outside purchases. But I might dig out the supplies and start making a few to try and sell.

I've tried my hand at jewelry, too, but I kinda suck at it.

Thanks.

Unfortunately, jewelry doesn't go well on eBay. But yes, I think those dreamcatchers are definitely something you should try!

Money is for rich people man. Poverty is the way to go!
