Hubby took some really good photos of...what I am now calling...my Hobo Yoyo Circles Bag! I wanted to show you the photos...and something else too. But first...the bag! :-)
I probably should've put something in it so that it would look full or something.....Ummm...I just now thought of that! ^_^ Okay, so I'm a Yoyo bag crocheter whose kinda slow!
Oh Well, it's too late now! I already listed it in my Wuglyees shop! :-) ... I had a hard time with the pricing thing too. I enlisted hubby to help me out. His original price was ridiculously low...in my opinion.
So what we decided to do was do some Etsy research!...How much would a crochet bag similar to my style bag...because there's none out there EXACTLY like it, I don't think...go for?! Here's some of the gorgeous bags we turned up!
This Over-sized Tote by TheFyberStud, going right now for $180.00...
The Bead Knit Drawstring Evening Bag by eggmoney, going for $180.00...
The Crimson Tide Shoulder Purse by PopTopFashion, for #200.00...
The Giant Crochet Hobo Bag by IMBUTTERFLY, for $265.00...
And the Madder Onion Bag by SusanoftheEast, for $385.00...
I can see how much work and materials they put into their bags. And we saw that some of their other bags in their shops sold for these prices too! So we felt comfortable pricing my Hobo Yoyo bag at &225.00...What do you think?! Too high?! Too low?! Whatever. As I said yesterday, if it doesn't sell...oh well! :-) In fact, if I still have it when I reach my 1,oooth follower, maybe it'll be the Giveaway gift! ^_^ You never know with me!
There is another bag I wanted to show you though. It's this Handmade Black Knit Bag by hibbe...
This gorgeous bag wasn't a part of our research though. This bag was in the treasury entitled Black alone and Black with color done by AWITCH...
Along with the Crochet Flower Button Sock Slippers from my Wuglyees shop...
...she also included in thistreasury this Crochet Flowers Bib Necklace by wearaddiction...
These Elegance Crochet Gloves by VaiZONE...
This pretty Crocheted Bracelet by mccustomjewelry...
...and this fun and colorful Long Gypsy Skirt by subrosa123...
I love her theme...'Black alone and Black with color'...and I can see with every piece how she stuck to her theme..."Thank you for including me!" :-)
On a kinda sad note...for me anyways...I ran into a 'snaffu' with the 'Pastel' colored scarf I was going to give away. I ran out of the purple and green shades I was using. :-( I've had hubby running from store to store to store for a few days now, and no one has the shades I need to finish it! :-(
So I'm going to have to take the whole scarf apart now and try to configure it in a way that those colors stay in it, but not to the degree that I had originally intended. :-( So, if you entered the Giveaway for the 'Pastel' scarf...sorry. It'll be those colors, but more like a 'Wuglyee' version of them now...That's what I'm gonna be working on all day today.
I hope you all have a good day today too. :-] What are you working on?!!
Never As ExpectedWhy can't things go as expected?No left turn. No oops!...'Snaffu'!There's always got to be a flyin the ointment, soup or stew!Why can't things go as they should,Without a hitch, impending doom?Instead of 'Steady as she goes'!There's always Click, click, click! Then BOOM!!
