one's value

Recently I was faced with the challenging and emotional experience of being told that my work was not worth two dollars more than what that person had been paying for it. Either way, it is a bargain for them, and while they seemed happy with my work, they weren't willing to pay for the quality they were enjoying.


I felt used, under valued, disrespected, and demeaned. Then I began to question my own value, which is a terrible place to go, to take yourself. 

And then... I was bolstered by THIS.


Thank you Design Sponge & Regina Morrison. You reminded me to have faith in myself and to not sell myself short, for myself, and for the rest of the small creative / handmade business community.
