When purchasing a handmade creation the prices will more than likely be higher than a store bought item. This is because store bought items are factory made and usually come in mass quantities. It also costs more to make handmade items most of the time. Supplies, time, etc.
I've met some peoploe who don't understand why I can't sell an item for 5 dolallars. Well most of the time it cost that much to make it.
So, the next time you are at a market and see a really awsome item but the price seems high, just remember that it was handmade with love and not mass produced and shipped here on wholesale prices. Remember that that item is awsome becasue it is unique and made by a local artist.
