How much is that?






The real question that seems to come up is how much are things worth? Crafts and the skills to make them are very much undervalued, but how do you change this when people want things to be as cheap as possible?






Curious?

- Unusual, not necessarily practical but acts as a talking piece or nostalgia














Story telling?

- Paying for not just the object but the stories and history behind it
-Memories for the buyer










Experience reminder?

-paying for an object to remind them of something they did or visited e.g. post cards or stamped coins at the gift shop













One of a kind/ Individuality?

- says something about the buyer of the object, exclusive, makes others want it














Fad/popluar?

-Everyone who is cool seems to have one














Customisation/Personalisation?

-allows the buyer to pay for extra service for a specific detail or allows them to be a part of the making process and creates attachment to them












There is nothing like getting a hand stamped letter
