Hello Amanda Linn,

    I think it's wonderful that your creations turnover so quickly that
    you can't keep up with demand.  My thought is that your prices are
    TOO LOW.  Raise your prices by at least 25% on all new pieces.  If
    the galleries gripe, say "Hey, metal prices are rising and I have to
    cover those costs as well as my time. These are quality, high karet,
    one of a kind works of art." 

    My prediction: the demand will remain steady, perhaps even increase. 
    If you still can't keep up, raise your prices again, and really
    promote your "name." 

    Simple economics of supply and demand.  Go for it Girl! 

Judy in Kansas
