Mostly I've been making cameos, I originally started to simply make them for myself, because I wanted cool Bela Lugosi ones and the lady that used to sell them on Etsy.... Well I can't seem to find her any more. So I started to make them for myself, but them people saw them and said hey! You should sell those! Which I thought was a great idea because I had ideas for ones that I probably wouldn't wear but I'm sure someone else might. (Like Batman villains, or My Little Pony ones). Here are the first set that I made for myself (the next set are much more colorful)
I'm really excited for, what I'm calling; my collections, the Metal Mania ones are the hardest so far, picking bands that I think would sell, and trying to get the album covers people will recognize. But because I am a self deemed metal head, I refuse to do bands that people say they like but don't. Like the Ramones or Kiss or something like that. (I mean seriously, how many people knew love gun was a kiss song before that guy on Role Models said something?) Unless, I get asked to make those, I probably won't. Call me biased I frank don't care, I am, it's whatever. If you want me to make you a cameo with something I don't like I will, for you, but I won't mass produce them. Cause that is just perpetuating the stereotype that you actually know what your wearing, but you don't and that isn't fair to those of us (like myself) who do know and care about stuff like that. Let Walmart sell you a Misfits shirt even though you've never heard of horror punk or Danzig, but I will not mass produce that. Like I said if you want one and you ask me I'll make one for you, no extra cost and I'm not going to quiz you or anything (because obviously you asking means you or someone around you likes that band or character or the art work or something, so I'm cool with that) but don't try to tell me to make more for others, if those people want them they can ask too. It's no big deal. If they don't ask then they really didn't want it, did they?
But anyway, my upcoming trends will be a mix of horror movies and kid shows and music. I'll post links on all my sites when I'm ready to sell them :)
Love and clay,
