Would you buy...?
« on: January 10, 2020, 06:06:20 PM »
So I’ve been thinking of doing some creative stuff to sell at my booth at the new convention in Texas this summer.  Traditionally, I’m a painter so I could definitely whip out a painting or two.  But I know that people tend to only have so much space on their walls.  So I’ve also been thinking of sewing my own pony themed tote bags.

So here are my questions:

How likely would you be to buy either a painting or a tote bag?  Both?  Neither?

How much would you expect to spend on something like that?

What ponies would you want featured?


And just to have a picture in here, this is the sling bag I made a while back.  I don’t think I’m likely to make sling bags to sell, they are pretty labor intensive.  But would people be interested in buying tote bags with this aesthetic?

Oh that bag is cute! I would definitely consider buying something similar. Especially at a convention, I bet it would be helpful in hauling other treasures around. ;) I think you could easily charge $60ish for a tote bag like that? Maybe a little more depending on how long they take to make? I’m never great at pricing, but I would find that pretty fair! :)

As far as paintings, because I have 0 wall space left I probably wouldn’t be in the market for any art, but I’m sure there would be some interest!

I haven’t decided if I’m going to a pony con yet this year, but I’m really really thinking about it. The new Texas one looks fun, so I might be there!
