That would be a good business.
I almost spent $70 on fairy wings as Christmas presents for my grand-nieces at Mudpie in San Franscisco.
Proceeded to buy educational toys instead. They were still a hit.
@jurban I used to make and airbrush silk ones for kids.. I couldn’t keep up with the demand, tbh. It. Started because my daughter wanted “real” fairy wings. I made her some and took her to Fairy Worlds and everyone kept asking where we got them so I ended up making them 🤣. Hired people at Goodwill to help me make them for a little while!
Glad the Ed toys were a hit!! It’s fun.. I loved creating fairy things /doing festivals. I dressed my daughter and her friends up &everyone would come!
@Museek
That's exciting! It's rare to get a hit. Maybe you should just design them and get someone else to make them?
Hey, here's a new market:
"Educational toys with a Fairy theme"
Give more incentive for little girls to learn about STEM subjects. I can imagine fairies holding the planets in the correct order from the Sun. Or, two fairies assembling two water molecules into an ice crystal.
@Museek
Ah, maybe you should have made it in Mexico? I hear the labor rates are still pretty low there.
The nice thing about designing is that everything is one of a kind. Then someone else figures out how to amplify it.
I call anything "Nanotech" "Fairy Dust" because it will probably actually do magical things someday. It will be indiscernible from magic. I can imagine a distant future where there is physical "magic" all around us that is driven by microscopic technology.
@jurban that would probably be better…
I lack marketing skills 😂
That world is wondrous… funny you call it that. Her dad was a scientist and had an electron microscope. It was cool to see some insects from the perspective. Someone could create amazing photography with one of those!
