Pricing Your Cross Stitch for Commissions and Sales

I'm having fun though.

My bead drawer has gotten a lil out of control. I My bead drawer has gotten a lil out of control. I keep buying beads intending to make more scissor fobs... but I've got so much on my plate already I just haven't gotten to it. πŸ™ˆ

I really need to set aside a day to just play with beads. How do you keep up with all your different hobbies.

And don't say you have just one -- I won't believe you 😝

This month's pattern is a sweet little piece theme This month's pattern is a sweet little piece themed after one of my favorite carnivorous plants, the butterwort. aka Pinguicula.

It's pretty hard to depict that distinctive leaf shape and texture in a cross stitch, but I did what I could. 🀣

A look at one of my favorite shelf in my office wh A look at one of my favorite shelf in my office which holds my cross stitch WIPs!

The old IKEA KVISSLE is perfect for holding all my works in progress. including some other crafts. I couldn't find it on the Ikea site anymore. But uh, the IKEA HARVMATTA looks... exactly the same, lol.

I do plan to paint this thing one day when I finally have time/money to remodel my office. But for now... it's fine as its. You don't need a fancy space to create cool stuff!

But it is definitely nice to have.
How do you store your WIPs? Are you more the individual project bags type? Do you have them in a drawer? One of the great things about this craft is just how differently everyone goes about their setup and process. Everyone's different and all those differences are so interesting to see!

This month's cross stitch pattern is coming along! This month's cross stitch pattern is coming along! You can already tell I'm doing another plant-themed pattern, I think. But I bet you can't guess the plant/flower! 
I posted the color palette last week if you need more of a hint. ;)

How interesting is this yellowy green though?
