Today, I am selling my work at Providence Flea. 275 South Water St, Providence RI.

This is a weekly juried event with over 80 vendors and food trucks.

Great looking assortment! Do sales allow you to cover expenses?

[–] Spacebar@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yes, I make a profit each event, including the vendor fee.

Nice! Good for you! It's nice to see some people are still willing to pay for quality hand-made things.

Do you ship internationally?

Missed opportunity to title your booth "Good & Wooden" 🤪

No, but seriously: this is inspiring to see. 🤗

Your work is gorgeous, and the booth setup is really nice and eye-catching, too!

Nice!

My dad used to do a bunch of lathe work like that a few years ago.

Just curious, what do you sell them for? I watch wood working projects in youtube and they always require so much time and effort to make.

Small plain salad bowls are $10. Large plain are $50.

The small intricate bowls that have inlays and segments and inlay are $50.

The two large bowls in the back are $300 and $250

Outstanding. I could use some wooden bowls myself. We're trying to get away from plastic containers where we can.
