Well, I was pretty much planning on doing that because I'm trying really hard to 1. raise money for a new computer - since I'm using a computer older than my sister (who is in first grade) and I can't even edit photos on here for you, but have to go do things on my husband's work computer.
And 2. raise money for Alt Summit, which is a super fancy blogger/designer conference being held in my very own Salt Lake City, but which costs $400! Dang! Pricey.
(Click for more info)
So I'm planning on making an assortment of things and trying to make you buy them. Ahem, not making you buy them. You know. Begging you.
Ahem... I mean. You know.... whatever.
You want to buy these things from me, right?
But here's the deal (again, in two parts) 1. I'm too excited to keep secrets from you, bloggers, and wanted to tell you of my plan right away
And 2. I don't really want to spend hours, energy, and money making things that you guys won't buy, so I'm asking for your opinions before I begin.
If you guys are interested in helping me get myself a new computer and perhaps pay the registration fee for Alt Summit (which would help my blog be better, more awesome and um... probably prettier with more giveaways) would you guys be interested in buying any of the following from me?
1. Monsters like Olfie, in various colors and sizes?
2. Bibs and/or onesies with things like cameras and sunglasses painted or screen printed on them, not unlike these:
3. Anything else in particular that you've seen on the blog, like this bird mobile? or maybe a {hat like this one} (which I'm in the process of trying to make for my boys)?
4. And lastly, I'm currently selling ad space on the side of my blog for 10$ a month (and I usually charge 15$ a month). If you're interested in advertising on Baby Making, just send me an email with your web address and a 130x130 ad, and we'll figure out the details.
5. Oops, not lastly, because I only just thought of this idea: I am pretty constantly complimented on my various blog headers and buttons. I'm not so hot at illustration, but I've got some mad skillz in photoshop.... when it comes to arranging photos in a pleasing manner, that is.
So I'll do some design work for your blog.
Prices:
$25 - I'll make you a blog header of your own photos, of your choosing. It will be similar to mine, in that it is all photographs, and not much else - but will otherwise be completely unique!
$10 - I'll make you a blog button. If you look to your right, you'll see the Little of This, Little of That button, the Griz Pharm Photography button, and the Froelich Family button - all of which I made, in addition to mine, which can be found under the BUTTONS tab on the top of the page.
$15 - I'll do any additional tabs, buttons, pictures, or links that you want - up to 10.
or for $40 I'll do all of those things for you, and you will have a pretty blog, with a header, buttons, and tabs that all match and are awesome.
So anyway, PLEASE, PLEASE leave some comments and let me know what you guys think, what you're interested in, and even opinions on my pricings, which I admit - I made up as I wrote this post out...
Or even better, send me an email. If you feel the need to include 40$ and a dozen pictures for me to start working on... all the better. :)
Seriously, you guys are the best readers ever, and I love you guys!
