If you have the hobby of Embroidery so it is a fantastic hobby, for much people it is incredibly soothing. However, after more years of embroidery as a hobby, we may find that the amount of finished ( completed) projects you have accumulated is vast. This is when you maybe sell them . I expect that you probably give a lot of your embroidery and other crafts work to people near you as friends and family as gifts for Birthdays and Christmas, but next step it’s nice to offer them something else. You can use the money you get from selling your embroidery projects to fund your shopping. When you start to do this , you should first think about the usefulness of it. For example, you own a finished cross stitch piece but you didn't do anything with it. For much people, this can't be an enticing project to buy, because although finished the embroidery side of it, they can't consider it to be finished. What you need to think about how you can convert it into a useful or decorative object. Maybe your embroidery piece become a cushion cover, the top of an ottoman, a wall hanging etc. Pieces of embroidery like this are much more likely to sell. The kind (style) of embroidery you have completed maybe effect the price, for example, a piece of completed cross stitch may not fetch as much as a completed piece of Assisi embroidery, as Assisi is often thought of as historic embroidery and cross stitch is considered to be very modern.
this mean that you must consider your selling venue, craft fairs are an great place to start, as you will get to meet other crafters and embroiderers who will show you the way , offer you advice and often be a good inspiration for more of your embroidery work. You will often fetch a much higher price for your work at a craft fair than you will else where.
Another idea that presents itself it is using online auctions such as ebay. because of the ease of use, there is no planning involved and you can list your items any time. Although ebay has its benefits, you’ll be hard pressed to get a very good price on your item, so choose your venue carefully.
When your work there are a few things you should add in to the cost. Include the cost of materials, any postage costs if you buy the materials by the Internet or mail order, any fuel if you had to collect your materials, work out your rate and then calculate the number of time that it took you to complete. much people may advise you to multiply that number by 4 or 6, however it is up to you. Often the project can take months to finish, and multiplying the cost by 4 would make the finished piece out of many peoples price range, so choose wisely.
After that all If you still unsure there is a third option open to you, and that is someone want to sell your project for you. If you are lucky enough to live in a tourist town you could approach gift shops to sell your embroidery projects, or if not, many craft stors have displays of finished wares. Often these malls will also help you in pricing and give you a guide. If you make a good relationship with these shops you may find you get commissions for your embroidery which will earn you quite a bit of extra money.
