Morn. Rain, love your work. I,ve been sewing for many years and when I sew for a client I charge myself 25.00 a hr. Just saying I think paying 95.00 for a hand painted jacket is too low. Being a New Yorker if you was to sell in the Village area in Manhattan they would sell for at least 425.00 and up. People want unique things and really appreciated Greatness when they see it. Just my opinion.

11 dollars per hour is actually still on the cheap side imo. People are just spoiled to the point of megalovania 🤷

Hey guys i usually update what I’m selling on my Instagram.
I said that I’ll be opening my online shop. My online shop would consist of mostly art prints and yes it will sell some of the painted jackets.
Since it is a custom jacket it is a first come first serve situation. I’m am carrying loads of units this semester and it’s really hard to find time to paint jackets. And I know it must suck having to wait for sales and suddenly it’s just sold right away. Painting these jackets really is time costly.
If you still want a custom jacket I am open for commission.
How I price my customs
The cost of the jacket + the cost of painting
I charge based on minimum wage($11 per hour)
So say the jacket cost $40 and the painting takes 5h then the total cost would be $95.
If you’re interested in getting a custom, make sure to give me a message to my ig, and you’ll be added onto my waitlist.
I’ve been getting so many questions about how much the jackets cost and after I tell them the price, they just ghost. Art pieces takes time and patience, and it’s not just going to cost $30 for something I’ve worked for hours. There are customs artist out there who are selling for thousands. I just don’t believe my art is good enough to be priced that much. I still do thing that $11 per hour is costly, but it’s really time consuming and I hope you guys understand that.
Also I’ll be doing a thorough tutorial on how to paint on denim. Maybe y’all can even paint one yourself! :) I’ll be answering all the questions I’ve been getting,
How do you wash it?
What kind of paint?
And all sort.
