Rustic trellis

[Ian Leach]

I was thinking about garden centers just need to get stock up as i've not made many, I have roughly sorted out a price list of what i would like but struggling TBH as some people say it's cheap and some expensive.

 

So my question is what do you think there worth??

 

Andy i'll PM a price list in the next few days as i have a show the weekend:001_smile:

Alot more than b n q crap, you need to target the country fair type shows with some samples then take orders. I can just picture your stand, selection of trellis', some carvings ie mushrooms and the like, a pallet of charcoal to sell etc etc etc. You could even sit there doing some turning on one of those old fashioned spinny jenny things that have string attached and you pump it with your foot. Proper olde world style, people love all that stuff.

i would work out an hourly rate plus material and add a bit on. if it took you 4 hrs to make then just work it like that mate. as mick says you need the right stand, a labrador in a basket, a border terrier milling about under the table, some shortbread and a nice malt with some little glasses, even some posh sweets for the kids. invite them in to your stand, some organic tea on the kelly kettle. mmmmmmmmmmmmmm i can smell the pound signs from here. i would promote using the customers own material, get yourself around to theirs and see what you can do for them with there own stuff:thumbup:

Marketed properly you should get £50 each for the split ones I reckon. They look really good, go to the poshest garden centre you can find.
