COMMISSIONS ARE FINALLY OPEN AGAIN!

COMMISSION LIST:
1. :iconponymonster: - Three-eyed frog plushie
2. open
3. open


Here's some information about commissioning me.  If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.


General rates for plushies I've made before:

     chick, baby octopus- $8

     ramen cup, star, cupcake- $10

     hen, pokeball, masterball (etc, small round types)- $15

     whale - $25, narwhal - $26

     squid, octopus, jellyfish- $35

     bear (any type), cat - $40

     fox, lion, rabbit, kappa - $45

     Unicorn/Pegasus/Pony - $85+ (depending on the complexity and difficulty)

See something else in my gallery that you'd like? Just ask!

INFO: You pick the color(s) and can request modifications. Production time varies depending on the item, anywhere from one week to one month. I will let you know an estimate of how long your plushie will take to make.



INFO for Custom plushies commissions:
This means commissioning a plushie that I have not made yet, this applies to anything that will require me to make a new pattern.

Leave a comment or send a note explaining the plushie you'd like to be made. Please let me know what size you're looking for as well. Prices vary greatly depending on the complexity, size, etc. of the plushie. I'll send you a price range that the plushie will fall in. You will be required to make a down payment on the plushie before I begin working on it, the amount of this payment will depend on the plushie. The rest will be payed after the plushie is completed and I am ready to ship it to you.

The final price will be $12.50 per working hour + material cost + shipping. I retain all rights to the pattern for the item that is made and may later sell the pattern if others are interested in it.
Production time will vary depending on the plushie.


SHIPPING: These are general rates for mid-sized plushies (octopus all the way up to Alice doll). For something small (soot sprite, chick, baby octopus) the price will be less and for something very large (Pyro, custom order) the price will be more.
United States - $3.50
Canada- $4.50
Everywhere Else- $7.00 (Let me know what country you live in and I will see if shipping is possibly less, but for most countries outside of US/Canada, it will be $7.00)



For drawings commissions:
Drawing commissions are negotiable, just send me a note if you've got something in mind!


PAYMENT:
All payments will be made through Paypal. I can list the item on Etsy if you'd prefer to go that route, however the price will be modified (very slightly) to reflect the listing and selling fees. For plushies I've made before, half of the payment is due up front and the second half plus shipping will be due when the plushie is ready. For custom plushies, partial payment will be due up front and the rest plus shipping will be due when the plushie is complete.

As always, just let me know if you have any questions! I'm also open to suggestions of plushies you'd like to see me make :]

I'm an Arts and Technology student at UTDallas. But really I just wish I could crochet for a living! I like making cute plushies, reading manga/comics, playing video games, and sleeping. I wish I'd spend more time drawing, but I'm far less confident in my drawings than in my plushies. Someone motivate me to practice more!

Syppah do you have any tips on how to become a well-known etsy seller? *O* I'm trying really hard to make new things, but I'm wondering if making a lot of stuff isn't enough? OTL

Hmm, well I really don't consider myself that well-known. I'm sorta mid-range or something :P

I opened my shop in 2008 and it's taken me this long to get this far, so I think patience and perseverance is an important part of it. You will have to work a lot and make a lot of stuff, and you might not have a lot of buyers and fans for a while but it will pick up eventually if you keep at it! Try to always be nice to customers, even if they're being REAAAALLY stupid, haha. I think selling patterns attracts a lot of people too, if you think you can start trying to do that at some point. (But also know that selling patterns can be a real hassle, for many reasons.)

Hmmmm, what else.. I guess the only other thing I can suggest is to just keep making things, lots of things and lots of different types of things! Try to see what people like best, and match that up with what you like to make best if you can. Oh, and sell at anime conventions in your area if possible! It's a good way to meet with other crafters and gain some fans that will have a real life connection to you.

Sorry I rambled so much, haha. Hope it helps some! Most of all, just don't give up :la:
