Last week I picked up a big batch of the new ornaments in white from my powder coater. I’m planning on doing a whole wall of them for my booth at NY Gift.
I’ve got an idea of where I want to go with the pricing, but I though I’d throw it out to you? How much would you be willing to pay for one of these (retail)? (Each is 3″ in diameter from laser cut and powder coated steel.) What would you be willing to pay for a set of 3? Or a set of 6?
And while you’re suggesting, how about colors? What other colors would you like to see them in (besides white)?
Thanks!

so cool! i'm going to be difficult and not answer either of your questions. i just wanted to say that it struck me, looking at the ornaments, how similar your leaf pattern is to daisy janie's (http://daisyjanie.com) boxwood pattern.
perhaps you could draw some inspiration from that??

National Memory Screening DayFree, confidential meromy screenings for anyone concerned about meromy loss and early Alzheimer’s disease detection and intervention, sponsored by Visiting Angels in cooperation with the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America.WHEN:Tuesday November 13 2012Noon 4pmWHERE:Avalon Missionary Church. 1212 Lower Huntington Rd. Fort Wayne IN 46819INFO:National Memory Screening Day is an annual initiative of the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America (AFA). Visiting Angels is proud to be a partner in this important first step in finding out if someone has a meromy problem, and in helping patients and families become aware of the resources and assistance that is available.While a meromy screening is not a substitute for a consultation with a physician, it can help to determine whether additional testing is warranted. With as many as 5.1 million Americans living with Alzheimer’s disease, and many more with mild cognitive impairment and dementia, early detection and intervention can be critical to making informed decisions for greater health and quality of life.For more information on meromy screening and resources to assist with ageing in place, cognitive impairment, mild dementia, or Alzheimer’s disease, contact Visiting Angels at 260-482-CARE (2273).

I couldn’t agree more about geicatrris. I miss sitting with some of the elderly individuals I used to help and they would tell me stories for hours about the things that they witness when they were younger, and the lives that they lived up to the point that they needed care. I have always felt that the elderly know how to live their lives better than anyone, and they for sure never take it for granted! Sometimes the people taking care of them are not good people though, and it always breaks my heart to see someone talking badly to an elderly man or woman.I like how you made a switch from little tiny babies that have no real experience with life, to elderly men and women who have lived life to its fullest and still have more life to share with others. Such opposites!

Hi Megan,
They're awesome! I'd say $12-$16 retail each? Maybe a set of 3 for $36? I have no idea of your costs so this is difficult! Even though they're floral, they have a definite graphic quality. Maybe black, white, and one bold color? I'd look into color trend forecasts for the fashion or interior design industry.

I like the idea of not adding the tracnikg harness to the picture until the dog is seriously tracnikg. Via does a lot of watching the birds and contemplating her navel.

If they are holiday ornaments – I think RED is a no-brainer. Current trends lead me to think you should then pair it (and the white) with a soft lilacy-purple. The three would be great together!

I am so excited about these for my black and white Christmas tree! I hope you at least offer them in black and white. When do you expect them to be available on Etsy?

I would buy these. I would probably be more likely to buy a set of 4 thought.
And if they came in teal it would be a no brainer for me. I love teal.

They look great! Hmmm…pricing…i'm not sure what you have into them, but maybe $15-20? I think sets would be cool, but I like the option of buying individuals. I also wanted to say that in white they have a snowflaky feel, i like that for christmas, simple. Maybe do seasonal colorways?
Nina Dinoff says
i would totally buy these as coasters!
