Ya gotta have Heart

[barb.j.enders]

About a month ago I was at an event and started discussing scroll saw stuff.  Was showing someone some of my pictures (because I always have my phone/photo album with me).  He really liked the pendant sized gear heart I had made and asked about the larger size.  Said he would buy.  Went home and made a couple, thinking if he didn't buy I could always put them in my inventory for craft sales.  I did send him an email but never heard back.  Saw him yesterday and showing him the picture of the two I cut.  He wants a third.  Luckily I have just enough of the Sapelle (free from another friend) to do a third heart.  All sold at $50 each.  Wood is sapele & maple. All gifted from another woodworking friend - they were his "scraps".

Looks great, and good sale, RJ

Those look great Barb. Congrats on the sale. Love the wood contrast. I use a lot of sapele because I like the looks of it and I have been able to get it locally for less than $6 per bd ft.

Great sell, Barb. Congrats. They turned out nice. Always a plus when the wood is gifted!

Great price also doubt whether I wood get that around my neck of the woods but will try....

Beautiful job! Sounds like you ran into someone who appreciates nice work.

$50 each? I am impressed. I think they are quite unique when I saw the pattern, but I really did not think people would be interested enough to actually pay money for one. There I go judging what others are thinking. I wonder some times when I overlook something like this item, how many sales I have missed because of my judgements on the likes of others, thinking that if it does not interest me much, how can it excite anyone else. The dog puzzles are a good example of that thinking.

Yes, $50 each.  I am like you in the thought of "if it doesn't interest me, how can it excite anyone else."
