Presentation of the art works at shop

I made a search in the internet about glass art works,
I found some interesting sites. Some of them got even free patterns.
Also some of them are teaching how to produce your own pattern.

Some interesting part of this job that I found was about furniture
making with engraved glass and with metal. Iis the site of Dan Mc
Kinley. I think it will open new horizsons to your job.
Another thing I noticed is that some art works are used by
Architects and Interior Designers.

Also one more important thing, is the presentation of your products
in your workshop. The usage of light with your glass products
changes a lot the quality and so the price that can be associated
with your products I suggest to visit the web site of Dan MC Kinley.
You can see in it very clearly. (there might be some other examples
in the net, this site is just a random site I surfed in). So the
design of the stands and the placement of the light will influence
surely your sale and your income ( you can put higher profit margin
to your products

(for those who are unfamiliar with the words: “cost”, “profit
margin” and “income” here is a little explanation”

Cost is:
The total price you pay for buying the materials for creation
+ the electricity usage + the heater usage + the rent

Profit margin is
After all the payments it is the money that stays in your pocket

Income is:

The total of cost + profit margin : it is the price your customer
pay to your product.

All the best to you all
