Emily_1105: How long did it take for you guys to become bracelet king?

GiuseppeK: @idk_man- Unrelated, but those are some gorgeous (not to mention ambitious 👍) normals among your photos.

GiuseppeK: @idk_man- Now, this is potentially a radical thought (I've never seen anyone else around these parts discussing it), but I've learned that employing the "clean back" technique (Masha has videos if you have no idea what I'm babbling about) can often work too well--the side intended to be back turns out looking sharper and more presentable than what was intended to be the display side. Finally, I decided to just embrace it--no self-promotion intended, but compare and contrast the photos I submitted for #192651 Vs. #165977 for the results (the latter being the "backside" presented for display).

GiuseppeK: @idk_man- I myself don't believe I've quite gotten the whole alpha thing myself dialed in 100% (in my defense, it is all Greek to me). Much as I do like the notion of the "clean back" technique, I've found there are some instances when I can simply tuck the finished color (for the row) strand back and behind without bothering to feed it through the next, and even my critical eye wouldn't be able to detect anything wonky when the leading string comes back into play. It's probably ideologically impure, but if it works, it works.

GiuseppeK: @idk_man- Usually it's just a matter of practice, and learning how the knots want to behave (and figuring out what we can do about it). In some instances, it might be a matter of the kind of thread we're using--not all strands are equal.

idk_man-: Hey everyone, I finished my first alpha, and have a question. I know that when you change colors, you do half a f or b knot and put that leading string up, and your previous leading string goes across and under the new one. And you finish the second part of your knot over and bring it under. I’m finding when I do this, those knots end up bigger, and end up making the bracelet rows wonky. I have tried pulling the previous leading stings from behind to make sure it’s tight, but it still happened. Is this normal? Or am I doing something wrong?

MidnightTH: @sophen Funny enough I have that already in my to-dos from like 2 months ago. And don’t worry about how fast you respond at all! lol😂

GiuseppeK: @Paws14 In that case, if your friends insist, see if you can figure out some standard prices that way. When I finally got inspired to set up my mobile lemonade stand at the swap meet, I'd been giving fistfuls to a cafė owner to put by the cash register to elicit donations to the local children's hospital. I set the base prices based on what most people were willing to donate.

GiuseppeK: @Paws14 Some of the savvier kids know that if they "catch me in the wild", I might just give them a freebie, too.

17 hours ago

Paws14: @GiuseppeK Sometimes I tell my friends that its okay I can do it for free since you're my friend, but they insist on paying.

17 hours ago

Paws14: @GiuseppeK All my clients so far said that it makes sense the price that I put since its handmade and that I should charge higher.

17 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @Paws14 If these are genuine friends, that should at least make settling on a fair price less of a pressure on you (if it's a little under fair asking price, consider it a "friends & family discount").

17 hours ago

Paws14: @GiuseppeK My friends knows that making bracelets is very time consuming. One of my friends told me to sell the more expensive because its super nice.

17 hours ago

sophen: @MidnightTH ah ok well then #199594 is cute (ignore how fast i responded i have nothing going on)

17 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @Paws14 The economy also might factor in where you are. Times are tight here (Thailand), and I sell off the wares for what most of my American countrymen would consider an outrageous pittance. I don't mind so much, since I'm going to be making them anyway, and I'm just flattered someone likes my wares enough to pay anything in the first place.

17 hours ago

GiuseppeK: @Paws14 When it comes to selling, most folks aren't going to be able to appreciate just how much time/labor goes into them, so we may have to resign ourselves to a price far below what *we* feel they're worth, at least if we want to sell any at all.

18 hours ago

MidnightTH: @sophen it is, but not exactly what I’m looking. I was kinda thinking more like a scene or a landscape, or something like that.

18 hours ago

Paws14: @sophen Thanks. You can look at my bracelets pictures and you will see mainly normal bracelets.

sophen: @MidnightTH #204305 is really cute!

18 hours ago

sophen: @Paws14 are they alpha or normal? If they're alpha i would do like 10 dollars, if they're normal probably like 5, thats just my opinion tho

Paws14: Hello everyone. So today some of my friends placed orders for bracelets. How much do you guys think I should sell a 10 string bracelet and a 12 string bracelet?
