Years ago I would participate in crafts show, spend hours making crafts only to have "noncustomers" standing within ear shot claiming to be able to make my crafts. It was just burned me up to listen to them and I take that along with me now. |
I had
already purchased my fabric
before this post. So I was not interested in buying a bed from anyone and still not.
I asked how much her (normarae) beds were and got no answer. ..but it didn't matter because I already had purchased my fabric and was going to make one.
And I know how it is to make things to sell... Not everyone is going to buy your items. There are many people who make things and sell them.
I own a primitive/country store (home decor and gifts). We have furniture, curtains, rugs , pictures , candles and all kinds of stuff from companies but we also have lots of hand-made items. Some which are made by me. I have had people to call me and ask how I make something and I tell them. Why shouldn't I ? I can not force people to buy MY item if they don't want to. if they want to make it themselves, then go for it. If they want to buy from another person or store, well that's okay too.
Same with these dog beds. I'm sorry if you think the link I posted may have taken business away from the lady (Normarae). That was not my motive. I was just posting the link because there were others here that made comments that led me to think they were interested in these type of beds and also didn't want to pay a lot. I seen this lady's page on Etsy and see she had these beds and thought the price was very fair so i posted it. It was nothing personal toward anyone. I meant nothing by it all. I was just passing it along for others. I'm not buying one from her. I'm not buying one from anyone.
