???? What is that ???? Thursday lurking crew....:confused:

I think you have an interesting idea. Especially for us artistically impaired. There are some people who sell lanyards and/or charms but I've never seen it sold as a set with of stickers. I would probably buy some as it would save a lot of time from having to shop around trying to find matching items. It wouldn't be intimidating - it would simplify things IMO.

I'd like some lanyards but most that I've seen though are either too plain or too tacky. It would be nice to see some more elegant or simple designs. It would also be nice if they could somehow be adjustable to also fit pv's larger than Ego size. Charms are fun and I have several beautiful ones from one of my favorite vendors. I'd like to see something other than a black o-ring used for them. I keep thinking of going to Michael's to see what I can find but I get the willies whenever I step into the place. Ya, I know you are thinking then why are you hanging in a "girly" thread! Because I love girly (and manly too) but doing crafts is just not my thing. I'm a buyer - the type of person who needs artistic people like you! Not to mention the people in this thread are so nice and inspiring!

Price point is too hard to figure because there are so many variable in the cost of supplies used. Maybe do a google, ebay, etsy, etc., searches and see what they are charging for items similar to yours.

Check out Stormy's "other thread" for the lurking reference. I haven't had time to jump in yet, but I will eventually.

As to price point, no one is doing the "whole enchillada" thing, so I've got nothing to compare to, other than my gut instinct. I've seen several lanyard makers close shop due to lack of sales, so I'm trying to determine what went wrong. My thinking is that it's a combination of price, and the "one shop for each item" makes it too hard for a lot of us. I think staying under $30 for the "entry level" kit is critical, and it seems eGos/clearomizers are preferred by many, that's my original concept. Of course, larger mods & cartotanks open up whole new avenues (and would have a higher price point). Actually (thinking out loud), it would be wonderful to partner with some of the other creative ladies (Teena, Stormy, Perspera, Kayte all come to mind). Oh well, I can dream, can't I?

And speaking of larger mods, stay tuned to this thread. I should have the first "ladies only" Provari holder/lanyard posted later this week.

Here are some older pics of some of them but I only have single pics of lots of them and of my newer ones. I'll have to take an updated group shot of them all together. Sorry for the duplicates I don't have many group shots. I wish I had taken more because it's sad to look back and see how many I've lost, sold, or broken - :cry:

This was so weird feeling! I was doing a google search for pv's and came across a couple pics of mine that people had pinned on pinterest. It's flattering that people like your things but it just felt strange knowing people have your personal pics. I guess it just goes with the territory when you post things on the internet.

Anywho....I figured Id show them again if people enjoyed seeing them! These aren't girly but they are a couple of my favorites:

Mookie, I love the day of the dead tank!
Most of my acrylic tips are from Molehill Mountain, a few of them are from Lewis Gentry, and all the glass tips are from Sagewood Art Glass, except for the red rose tip. That one came from Phiniac. I was on Etsy and I came across a shop, she had the same roses and others. Search drip tips and the store will come up, I think it was something like BlackRavent. Also, Molehill Mountain and Sagewood will do custom orders! :)

I sometimes I read too fast and miss things! Lol. So you know about her store on Etsy.

That's the same woman as Teena on this site (on Etsy she goes by Christina, in Upland, CA if I recall). She also (or used to) sell tips though AIV.

I forgot about AiV. They do still carry her tips, last time I checked (about a week ago). I wonder if she makes all the glass on there. If so, I have been very curious about her tanklet charms.....

Teena has her own ECF thread (which is what I linked to). It seems like she puts her newest creations on ECF first. The last time I checked AIV still had some tanklets, but not much of a selection.

I may be wrong but I think she said she wasn't making tanklets anymore.....but who knows with my terrible memory. Teena is also selling through Phiniac now. That girl is making a name for herself!!! :toast:
