I made more rabbits fur cuffs - available on my depop now for $30 - this price reflects cost of materials & time it took to handsew.. should I raise it? I’m paying myself a fair wage but I feel a bit odd pricing new fur so low. Let me know! (the fur is sourced from a homestead! no fur farm or trapper bunnies) #fur #designer #bracelet #chunkybracelet #ss25 #trend #style #fashion #handmade #smallbusiness #goth #grunge #alternative #whimsigoth #southerngothic
