Alison B. Antelman replied to Harriete Estel Berman's discussion 'How do you PRICING your work?'

While materials and labor go into pricing, artists should be including overhead (ie: rent, insurance, etc...), consumables (ie: buffing wheels, drill bits, etc...), however, there is an ambiguity that also goes into pricing art jewelry which may inc…

Additional Work Info you would like to share

I am a studio jeweler creating hand-made art jewelry. I use organic free form shapes and natural stones along with hand-made clasps in original designs. I teach workshops at art centers (including Mendocino, CA; Richmond art center, Richmond, CA; Sun Valley Center, Idaho) and at my own studio in Berkeley, on specific techniques including clasps, chain-making and using the hydraulic press. I am currently president of the San Francisco Bay Area Metal Arts Guild board which is a wonderful resource for jewelers and other metal artists-also a member of Pro Arts in Oakland, CA and SNAG.

My teacher still has the necklace. When I get it back I will send you the pix of the clasp.
Best,
Diane

I will try your suggestion.
Best,
Diane

Brigitte has virtually no control as to which ads show up on the Crafthaus site. While we don't support Prop 8, we do support freedom of speech for you as well as the Prop 8 nimrods.

I didnt see anything offensive in that matter on my end either. I'm sorry you got to see it however it showed up. I think I share an opinion with many other artists that I want all my friends to have the same right as me. I hope you can be relieved to have friends on your side.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

Unfortunately, I have no control over the ads that you can see in the upper right corner on crafthaus. This is a google feed from the "ning" host that I can neither divert nor control in any way. These ads come with the package when you set up the site and in order for them to go away completely, I would have to pay "ning" a monthly fee, which in turn I would have to charge the members as well. When I set up the site, it seemed to me that the ads were geared toward art related business and initiatives which might be of interest to some of us and therefore I felt I could spare everyone the expense of having them removed. Also, I do not receive any kind of fee from crafthaus members visiting advertised sites or using the advertised services. This is simply something that comes with the "ning" host.

When I received your mail this morning, I looked at craftaus to see the ad you mention for myself but I did not have the same ad feed, maybe because I am in Pennsylvania ?

In any event, if this is something that you saw in another section of crafthaus, such as a member fed section, please let me know. That I do have influence over. crafthaus is not a political site and I can delete inappropriate content as long as it's member created.

I hope this is helpful. Again, thanks for bringing this to my attention.

Welcome to crafthaus ! I am very glad you joined us.

Please feel free to add images of your work and your comments to the blog/discussion topics that are already posted. Of course, if there is something else you'd much rather talk about, please add that to the site so that the rest of us can chime in.

I really hope you will enjoy being with this network and find the exchanges interesting and fun. The more you put into it, the more you will get out of it, for sure.

If there are ever any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to email me anytime. I will do my best to be of help.

Again: Welcome !
