I have finally opened my business: Maudi Mae :)
It is handmade hair accessories and shoes clips; basic accessories you'd see ladies wear in Apostolic churches.
If I ever get the chance to finish some of my crocheted blankets, they will be for sale.
Scarves will start being sold around the end of October.
There is an eBay store as well as an Etsy store. There is more stuff on the Etsy site due to selling limits on eBay.

The scarves will probably be between $5 and $10 depending on size and complexity. And yeah, I can do custom.

I got an offer from Branson Mills Craft Village to sell some stuff there. I have a meeting tomorrow at 2:30, which means an emergency trip to Branson (darn...  ;))
Wish me luck!!

That's great, Tiffany!  I hope it all works out for you.

I got the job! You can now find some of my work at Branson Mill Craft Village starting November 1!
And sometimes when they have special showing days, I might be there demonstrating.

Good luck on your venture into the business world, Tiff! 

But...$5 or $10 seems awfully cheap for handmade scarfs.  Don't sell yourself short.   I don't know how you make them or how long it takes to make one, but, and this is just my opinion, you ought to figure on making $15-$20 an hour for your time, maybe more.

On the other hand, you know what you want to do, so go for it!

I was thinking about it because I'm getting ready to list some scarves and I did figure $15 is probably what they will be going for.
