Artwork For Sale!

Jon-Erich's Halloween Button Set (kids set)

Jon-Erich's Halloween Set (adult set)

This is currently what I'm selling. These two sets are on sale on Ebay and Etsy for $4.00 plus shipping. I hope to start selling these on other places like Ebid as well. For this year at least, this is the only group of buttons I plan to sell as a set. For those of you who are lucky enough to see me in person, I can sell these directly to you so you can avoid paying for shipping. Hopefully over the next few days and weeks, I'm going to post these and other buttons that'll be sold as individual pieces for only $1.00 plus shipping. That being said, buying these particular buttons in a set will save you a little bit of money as opposed to buying each one individually. I also have some ceramic work that I made a while back that I plan to sell soon as well, hopefully within the next month. 

This is an exciting time for me because I've been making these buttons for a while now, and have had some success selling them at shows and through other means, but this is the first time they're available online. To be honest, I don't expect to sell much of anything right away. I'm hoping that at some point in the near future, when I'm able to have more art shows, I can sell my stuff there and then hopefully those same buyers will buy more online, which in turn hopefully attracts others who may not have an opportunity to see one of my shows. 

Everything here was done with a DIY attitude. I made the artwork, photographed the artwork, saved money by working at my horrible job which allowed my to buy the button machine, and made the button templates myself. A lot of hard work went into making these and for me, it's not just about the money. I believe in what I'm making. When I made these, my first thought was to make a product that I would want to buy. So, if I didn't believe in what I was making, I wouldn't sell it. 

Anyway, for those who are interested, my Ebay name is Jon-Erich-1985 and here's the link to my Etsy store: http://www.etsy.com/shop/Jonerich.
