Thanks. A while ago, I made a conscious decision to keep my creative and professional life separate. Income from my profession and enjoyment, bartering and gifting of crafted items. The buyer/seller relationship is something I'm not comfortable with when I make things that aren't easily replicated. I want to make sure that everything I make has a future owner that is invested in the process. I guess I just don't enjoy the imperssonal nature the retail process. I like the warm fuzzy feeling I get when I pack up something special.
