Running a small business is like…

“I guess I’ll take the pictures of my stuff with my cell phone since I don’t have any other option” —- Your website failing to upload the majority of them —- but you’re not a tech person and so all the solutions you Googled are like a foreign language —- after looking at the few images that did upload you realize that you’re going to have to do a bunch of alt text and descriptions on ALL the…

Pricing Products in the Shein Era

The math says to charge $223 for it. This covers the materials, the labor and my years of experience, a tiny percentage of the enormous amount of "other stuff"* and then what your wholesale should be, finally landing at your retail rate...

Pricing your product in the modern age is hard. Even the simplest of garments, following basic retail math (and without the luxury of being a corporation that buys in bulk) can very easily come out to more than the average consumer is willing to pay. How then does one convince said consumer to part with their hard earned money in the era of Shein and Amazon? This is no rhetorical question that…

The fabric has been selected!

This image is horrible! It’s funny that my phone takes such terrible quality pictures that I tried to embed an image directly from the Mood website but it’s just an incomprehensible dark colored square either way, lol. Anyways, this is actually a lightweight wool in a navy so dark that it’s black, but in the right light you can see the blue of it. I think that this is perfect for Dream and an…

Yes, but which one?

Ah yes, the true glamour of fashion design…a film roll full of *checks notes* the same swatches of fabric under different lighting. But I trust that you can see why it’s important to do! Truthfully, some of these might even look the same or be the same setting. I took so many and changed the level of brightness and then realized my camera didn’t save them (which it’s never done before) so I did…

My First Official Post

Wow, the pressure! Especially for someone who doesn’t have anything to post yet. I mean, I know what it is that I want to do…tho Patreon isn’t exactly setup for how I want my setup. So it’s a lot of figuring out “how can achieve what I want within the system in place?” And the answer is, I think it’ll take a lot of work. That being said, I’m going to try a few things out and will possibly make…
