Handmade Art For MarketFriday
Today it's Saturday and yesterday I forgot to post for #MarketFriday. At some point I remembered that it's Friday and should do a #MarketFriday post and then I forgot. It's not nice of me but there's nothing I can do about it now, except to do the post today. There are still photos from last year's craft market and today I'd like to show you different products, handmade, hand painted and decorated.
Let's start with these lovely dolls dressed in folk costumes that were decorated with beads.
Here's a cropped image for you to see the details. Look at those aprons and had bands, how tiny they are and now difficult must be to do the decoration with beads. The price is 45 Ron, around $10.
There's a lot of work for that money and the profit is not huge, trust me. After some time you get used to it and it becomes easier, you work faster but your eyes are put to the test, believe me.
There are a few interesting pieces here but nothing special. This is the most simple way of doing it, I see nothing special here. I can do it anytime as I've been doing these for years.
This also looks familiar and again, nothing special here.
Here you can also see some dolls with handmade bead folk costumes, jewelry, folk costumes and wood objects. These bead necklaces are made of very small beads, therefore I appreciate these more fr the hard work that they put in it. As you can see in the background, the lady is embroidering a shirt of a folk costume.
These are funny things. At first glance I'd say these were made by kindergarten kids but I'm not sure I'm right. Should have asked what these are representing but it's a bit too late now for that.
These wooden boxes were cute and the pendants as well. At first glance these look like hand painted but I'm not so sure, the red poppy flower looks too perfect and I'm suspecting it's decoupage.
Looks like the boxes were hand painted after all as the lady was doing it at the moment of my visit.

Hi Erika! @ekikah I feel your pain with writing a post with only the phone. I know that so many people do it but for some reason, it does not come easy to me and it takes me much longer to produce one. So there needs to be no apology about that ever!
As you know I am a huge fan of handmade items, it's hard not two because each one is so very individual. I think the floral designs are very beautiful but that may be because I'm very partial to flowers I can't tell you how beautiful this post is as there are literally hundreds of these to choose from and I have taken the page and blown it up to get the details and these people that do them are so highly talented oh, I'm pretty sure that they don't even know how good they are.
I think you for always taking the time to bring something special to Market Friday and anytime good if it's more convenient to post my phone even if it is shorter oh, you know that it is even more appreciated because of the inconvenience. Thank you again and again.
#MarketFriday loves you!! 💖

Well said, each one is so individual, I agree with that :) Unfortunately buyers only see the price and they try to get a better deal each time. many of the sellers were offering me a discount if I buy more.
Thank you for your support and lovely comments! Have a nice day and see you on Friday :)
Oh, that is too bad. I almost never haggle with small vendors like this. Especially given the fact that they are not really even breaking even with time spent and money put in.
Most do it for the love (and well to try to make a few $$) They might as well put it on Etsy or the internet and they would probably sell more.
I love handmades. I make them myself, different things and I already price them fairly and I find it insulting to have someone offer me 1/4 of the price!!!
Have a great night and see you on Friday!! :)
Thank you, you too and see you tomorrow, on MarketFriday, let's hope I won't forget to drop my link again but if it happens, you know where to find me 😁
Thank you @pixresteemer.
Pretty expensive the last ones. I guess they're not easy to make.
You're right, they are expensive and not easy to make. To create such things require time, patient and some materials that are not exactly cheap.

Some of these look really dimensional, im sure each one took some time to make since they don't look stenciled.

You're right, I couldn't agree more. Stay tuned, there's more to come :)
