I started crocheting last month and have only made a few basic things so far. I’ve always wanted crochet sunflower curtain ties though, and I finally made one for myself ☺️ I’m from India btw.

But now that I’m thinking about making the second one… I’m like I’ll use the one to tie both my curtains together lol

Crochet is SUCH a time consuming yet satisfying process. Best hobby I’ve picked up. Also , I finally understand the pricing behind handmade crochet products now. The amount of time, effort, patience, and repetition that goes into even one small project is honestly crazy.

And genuinely, I don’t think I could ever do this as a business 😭 I’d happily make things for loved ones friends and family, but making and selling for strangers who may or may not appreciate the work behind it sounds so tough. Especially with the market being so saturated and so many people selling crochet items for unbelievably cheap prices I seriously don’t get it how cheap crochet products even there on the market. I saw a comment on the tutorial I followed that such wireless sunflower crochet curtain ties can be sold for Rs1500-1700 ($15-$17) a pair which is justifiable but then I do a google search and found one on amazon for Rs350 ($3.6) a piece - Seriously??

All crochet small businesses deserve so much respect honestly. And please start overcharging lol!!!

P.S. Here are some of the smaller beginner projects I made initially! The sunflower curtain tie took me around 3 days on and off 🌻 Hope you guys like it.
