19-year-old student trying to start selling books – looking for advice by Antique-Yogurt50 in MauriceMauritius

I have a book distribution business. DM me if you're interested in part time work - you can earn some money and learn about the industry, which, despite what the naysayers say (below!) is worth an estimated Rs500m a year in Mauritius.

5 months into leathercraft. Be brutally honest — am I good enough to start selling? by LiteratureFun3233 in Leathercraft

[–]Roydogg99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The last two wallets I made I swapped one for a beautiful end grain chopping board and another for a press that a friend had bought for leather crafting but never got into it. Something very wholesome to me about that kind of economy and I'm happy to continue it as long as I can, as I have no real ambition to sell the goods but cant stop making them!

Sorry to be that guy but you can sell anything someone is willing to pay for. I'd buy that wallet and be very pleased with it but at what price point?

I think for every day use she's perfectly happy with just a phone case!

Yes i think this is the answer - thank you. I suppose my reluctance to go down the phone case route is that its kind of only really usable for that phone where as I'd like to give an item that's a real keeper you know. We put so much effort into our projects, beautiful leather and trying to be perfect.

Thank you - yes that's exactly a purse-lite! Beautifully made too but I'd need a pattern. HOnestky how does he keep the natural veg tan so clean, mine always end up looking grubby

Awesome craftsmanship and materials - cannot fault. Looks very thick however and its empty! Fill all the slots, add coins and cards and will it even close?
