we have a minimum £2.50 per press charge to avoid trouble.
Most expensive T i ever did was just over £100 - and they brought in a Primark top !
Took me well over 2 hours to do, - then they took it to a framing shop - glass back - it was for a 'gangsa' rappa !
It was 'Blingtastic' - wish I had taken a photo of it now !

Mine would be custom design when i have a customer who knows what they want yet its almost impossible for them to clearly tell me and we end up with 5 or so proofing sessions.

Jenny you should have told them 'these are hand made and individual items not mass produced by a machine therefore there will be slight variances in depth of colour'......It works for Pilkington Crystal. They advise customers that if they want hand made blown crystal they must accept variances. If they want them all 'exactly' the same customers are advised to buy mass produced machine made items.
Their reasoning for stating this is that mass produced is of a lesser quality............a good selling point and it works for them. Maybe it's time to 'upsell' the 'made by humans not machines' aspect.

sitting down for about an hour with my sketch pad doing a design and the client then deciding they dont want some features in the design even though they asked for them..... at least if they ask before i ink the design its not too bad... but half way through inking it...... pisses me right off.
