well, holy crap! they guy that wants to collaborate/develop hats of mine for his fashion line says he IS prepared to pay me between $200 and $600 per hat, so blow me away!
but the thing is this....he will then send them china to workers there to have them figure out how to make them and mass produce them.! first of all, WILL they be able to figure it out??? and secondly, i really don't know how i feel about that!
but then again, if i don't do it, he could just buy my hats as i make them and send them t china without my consent and just have themm ade anyway. i don't think there is much i can do about it. that happens to designers all the time with knock off versions of higher end clothing. so....
this is really a weird thing for me to think about! hmmmm.
also, i will have to find out if i get a percentage of the revenue from those hats then sold. or do i get paid just a one time fee for the hats and the that is that?
i feel so conflicted about this.
do i even want to ATTEMPT to make another "masterpiece" hat? i don't even think i could do it. i could make something similiar maybe, but i could not ever replicate it in a million years.
hmmm....hmmmmmmmmmm.....
well, i have to get ready for my show now so i can't type about this anymore...
