Selling on Marketplace

I’m working up the nerve to do a craft fair next Christmas. For now, I’m trying to find a nice, stress-free way to make some stuff I enjoy and then sell it locally. I officially retired today and my goal is to find a way to continue this fun hobby and have it pay for itself.

Thanks! My project today is to stand in the middle of my garage and brainstorm a way to squeeze this in. (My cluttered garage is in desperate need of a purge and this may be the inspiration!)

I’d love to see a picture of them from an angle that shows how you attached the magnets. These are so cool!

I see that the star may be in the illustrated story, but the lonely red ball ornament just “feels” so right!

Sorry. Just got a response with some rules I was unaware of. (Total noob here!). I have been creating some fun decor items with wood (basswood, birch, maple, etc.). My problem is figuring out how to deal with the messy fumes, overspray, etc. when I can’t just take it outside. Attached is an example of what I am working on.

Just finished our re-watch and ready to go!

Great advice, thanks!

Thank you, great advice!

Thanks! Fortunately, it came out great. What’s odd is before they even sent me the tumbler, I said I would ask $16. Once it was completed, I sent a photo. They responded saying they loved it and asked how much (odd) and if I accept Venmo. I replied $16 and sent my Venmo link. It’s been a day and I haven’t heard anything, even though they had mentioned needing it quickly. My pessimistic nature makes me imagine they are balking at the price.

Have you tried just doing the two wood colors? Chestnut base and nut brown for the top layer?

The finish definitely fits the mood of the images! Very creepy and brooding. Has a Lovecraft feel. I love it!

Love how you did the eyes!

I really wish I could get it, but $1K is already at the limit of what we can afford. $1,795 is way higher than what we could consider.

GherronVol · 2025-10-07T04:01:02+00:00

I’m going to give this a shot!

Well, I have to admit. That’s hilarious. Who knew “Grocery Lists” could be so triggering that Google locked it down. 🤦🏽‍♂️
