It looks like there's only one line of stitches holding the straps on and there's no way those crystal designs could be hand placed, it's completely nieve to not realize that's an iron on.
As for costume jewlery, I learned a long time ago to always google first, 99% of costume jewlery comes from alibaba.
My cousin saw an alice in wonderland pocket watch she wanted, it was $65 at a craft booth and $10 on etsy.
I'm honestly disgusted with the craft world right now, most things people are selling were made in China and they may embellish it a little. My grandmom used to sell ceramics, fabric dolls, and doll dresses. That was real work and skill. I also know how to do many crafts, so
I usually know the work involved in the things people make. |
I totally agree with you about this. In school, when I studied fashion, our instructors stressed that we needed to truly learn our craft. Not just come up with these ridiculous designs in our heads and tell other people to make it happen. When I create something, I do it from the ground up. I draft my own patterns. I don't buy a premade pattern from Joanns. Those fits are horrible anyway.
