blokes and boys


Above are some recently new Bearded Blokes and Bow Tie Boys listed in my Etsy store. I am also busy working on a couple of commission items. I always feel a bit more pressure or a bit more anxious about the outcome when creating for someone's specific request. I think it could be the fear of disappointment and not meeting their expectation. How about you? Do you find it easier or harder to create for someone else's idea? Have you ever had to deal with a disjointed customer?

im the same, I get anxious when it's a request from someone else, although when I think about it I get nervous too when it's not because well I'm my own biggest critic! haha.
Love your new 4 eyed boys! xo

Handsomes! I feel the very same way about custom work...so much pressure.

Ooh yeah! I'm an interior designer and the stress of worrying how it will look, and if they like it can be a bit much sometimes.
Ps.Love the geek with the glasses!

I LOVE making custom pieces. I like the interaction between myself and the client, working out how our ideas can be made into life. But I have to admit, I do hold my breath when I'm opening the first email from them... just in case they're not happy! I LOVE your blokes!
