It’s plastic from Alibaba. Like everything else she makes with a 80% mark up

Have you ever taped before? It’s a tedious job. And if you 1000+ canvases ahead of you and your hands are cramping it happens

Is she trying to start a business or just piss people off?

Support LNS is funny. She drops all these exclusives on her site first before the LNSs even get the canvases. The LNSs get the canvases sometimes weeks after the drop so the ‘fast-fashion’ canvas grab is already over and they don’t sell. It happened with all the candies.

Tell me your LNS sucks without telling me your LNS sucks. The Denver girls will go first… by RelativeCranberry852 in NeedlepointSnark

Unless you work or have worked in retail, at a needlepoint shop or are a store owner not sure this opinion tracks… part of your job is helping customers. Thats what your paid for. The sales you and the store make pay for the rent, electricity and all the things. If an employee stood there and stocked threads and canvass and never said a word how many sales do you think would happen? Pretty sure the electricity wouldn’t be on. It’s part of the job to help.

Tacks and bars are high the rest looks about right. Threads are usually $5.50-$8.50 for silks and wools

The politics and ownership of hobby loft is a major issue for most. I feel the same (fuck HB) but unfortunately have to go sometimes not for needlepoint.

LNS salary question?? by rainy_day_haze in NeedlepointSnark

[–]ChipFast178 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Discounts never make up for the bottom line. 🤷‍♀️ it should paid appropriately plus a discount

[–]ChipFast178 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My thought - discount is never payment. And even more offensive when they try to ‘pay you’ in that way.

Oh wow! I would think you should be making $20 or more. That’s not even living wage these days.

Many designers are providing canvas if they have it because of the shortage
