✨ When you see a handmade piece and wonder “why does it cost more?” — here’s the behind-the-scenes math:
🧵 Materials: Quality ribbon, florals, bases, lights, glitter… those aren’t falling off a craft fairy’s truck.
⏱️ Time: Sketching, building, wiring, fluffing bows, re-fluffing bows, then packaging so it survives shipping. Hours—sometimes days.
🚗 Travel: Hauling supplies, shopping for just-the-right picks, and driving stock to and from the booth. Gas tanks don’t refill themselves.
🏬 Space: My booth rent isn’t imaginary—every wreath has to earn its little square of retail real estate.
💳 Fees: Etsy, credit cards, packaging, shipping, all those “invisible” dings that nibble away at profit like glitter on a black shirt.
Buying handmade doesn’t just get you décor—it keeps a small creative engine running. Every dollar fuels someone’s dream, not a faceless factory. Thanks for choosing people over production lines.
