I was at a garage sale on Saturday, and this lady had the most beautiful handmade dolls, really exquisite. She was selling them for $6.00. I thought she was selling them too low. I suggested she sell them in a store etc. I always wanted to make dolls, but It's one of those projects I started but never completed. Anyone make dolls here?

I have made some crocheted stuffed animals, but I haven't made a crocheted doll yet. It's on my list of things to do, someday. :) I do agree with you that $6 for a handmade doll is definitely too low. But when people sell crafts at a yard sale, they tend to under value their crafts, because people expect yard sale prices at yard sales.

You are right about the under value, I hope she took my advise and are going to sell them in another venue.

Yes I do make dools.Crafting is one of my pass times and I love to make dolls and candles.I do not sell tham though I just keep them and sometimes gift them to my dear ones.I make different types of dolls,small ones make with several rolls of threads, bigger ones made with cooton cloth and a clay face.I also love to make soft toys, the best one I have made is a snowman!It is really cute!

I always love dolls, but never got around to make any.

It find that $6 is cheap for a well-made doll. They demand time and fine work. I sell traditional babywearing dolls in my site for around this price, though ;) http://www.familialibre.com/catalog.php?category=29
