Description "This one prefers to travel light."

A secret surprise bday gift for friend!

Length: 13 1/2 in
Height: 6 1/2 in
Width: about 6 in
Deep: 4 1/2 in
Tentacle length: 9 1/2 in


The handbag is made entirely of minky and is super soft~! It's only big enough to carry phones, traditional sized wallets, and anything of the same size and length.

I'm still a novice at sewing so I don't think I can take commissions anytime soon. I rather get better at it before selling people things. But I believe I will open a shop on etsy sometime in the near future.

If that's the case, how much would you pay for one of these adorable purses?

haha don't take this the wrong way but I kind of see a vagina in that third pic, what with the whole thing being pink. If this is an inappropriate comment, feel free to delete this post its cool.

but for serious, if you're selling this I would set the price higher than 20 dollars, especially considering time put into it. Here's a tip to make sure you're not undercutting yourself. What I like to do is set a base price that I never go under. You take the hours it took to make the purse and times it by minimum wage. It's 9 dollars where I am. add the cost of materials to it. Say this took like... 2-3 hours to make. Let's make it 3. 3 x 9 is 27 plus the cost of materials, let's call it 3. That's 30 dollars for a hand made purse. It's best to avoid going under that. From the size I would price it at 45. Maybe 50. It may not sell the fastest but you won't be undercutting yourself.

It's ok, I saw it as a vagina in the 3rd pic too xDD I just chose to ignore it. What's funny is when you stick your hand in it and it's soft and warm....

Inappropriate: yes. But funny.

Yeah, I was watching a lot of etsy videos about pricing. I haven't really gotten any commissions, but I figure it's because I don't have a lot of stuff up anyways to generate traffic so I figured I'd just add more things before actually expecting people to start asking. :3

Oh my goodness. This is SUPER cute. Chances are I'd pay about 30-40 dollars for something like this, if it's handmade and well-crafted. Which it definitely looks like it is.

Thanks! I was thinking maybe making it $40 or so. I'm currently trying to figure out how etsy works and how to ship things. I've never had to ship packages before so I'm trying to learn real quick.

(I've actually heard of another website that's kinda like etsy, called Storenvy, but read reviews that people like it better. Be sure to check it out, too, just in case. --> [link] ) Otherwise, good luck! Maybe I'll purchase one in the future.

This is beautiful! I would totally carry this around. I'm poor, so I'd be more willing to pay anywhere between $15 - $25 for this.

This... is one of the best things I've seen for a while. I'd go absolutely nuts over one. Would sell my soul. Then I'd sell my spirit and possibly my inner essence. It's so cute and funny, and unique!!

It's made me giggle! I'm hoping to open shop very soon. I'm not sure on pricing, so, besides you soul how much do you think something like this would cost?

Caffeineghost In reply to SICProwl [2012-11-14 22:40:13 +0000 UTC]

I'm a very bad person at suggesting prices for anything; but I'd advise the following. Think about the materials and time of how long it took to do this, and consider your motivation factor! :3

And for the record the moment you do start making them I'd LOVE to buy one!
