I like VERY much, Wendy!!! Especially the first one with the blues - it's so soothing to look at, and the dragonfly adds just the right touch!
May I ask what kinds of prices you are setting on them?

hmmmm - I'm not really good at that either...
how do they hang - by the filament thread? Maybe $7 for the larger ones and a bit less for the smaller? Is the pink one beach glass? I've always liked beach glass, but have never been lucky enough to find any on the beach. There are some places that are wall-to-wall people in search of it - craaaaaaazy!

oh they are all for sell! i was just lucky enough to be offered one of the front windows for my stuff, so i moved my "booth" to there for now! i tried to take a pic of it, but the glass messes it up. i have all my pieces in there, and i hung grapevine with fall leaves all over the top of it along the ceiling! i used tree stumps at different levels and put my pieces on them!

WOW how did I miss those?!? They are fantastic!!! I LOVE them!
As for your prices, $2.50 is certainly reasonable! Not sure about $7.50 for the others just because I've never seen anything like that for sale around here. What sort of place are you selling them at? What kinds of customers does it get - locals, tourists?

Wendy have you figured out how much it costs you to make each one? Then figure a price on them.
