Apparel
Consider this my previously alluded-to 'scarf business'. I've grown to include skirts as well, and hopefully I can discover a denim-jean fingerless glove pattern that WORKS. I'm still experimenting with those, unfortunately. But the ideas are flowing, and it's only a matter of time before I overcome them... *rubs hands together*

Gypsy Scarves
Hand crocheted from yarn scraps--everything from novelty yarn, fun fur, acrylic, wool, etc. These chunky scarves can be used with almost any outfit and the variety of colors and textures complete the bohemian look. These are INCREDIBLY warm!! I use different yarn for each scarf so no two is alike.
Each circle is securely crocheted to its neighbor and tied with a double-knot against unraveling. Long strips of coordinating yarn are tied to the circles for a ragged look. My oldest brother likes to call these 'rag scarves'...if I didn't already prefer the name 'Gypsy Scarves' I would DEFINITELY call them rag scarves. I think they're pretty sweet.

Fingerless Gloves
I used to knit these silly things all the time. But then I got tired of knitting in the round, moved on to straight needles (circular are a PAIN sometimes), and decided to make faster ones. I still have a pair of knitted gloves in stock! I will say that these gloves are very warm, and really should only be worn if you truly are cold. Otherwise your hands sweat and you feel silly.
Tiered Skirts
My tiered skirts are made using old jeans (one that have holes and/or are nearing disuse in the legs are perfect) and fabric. Each one is different depending on what kind of fabric I happen to have on hand at that time.
The current price is actually in flux--if I have to find an old pair of jeans myself and make it that way, the price is $40. If the jeans are supplied, the price is $30. Depending on how much fabric I have the tiers may be patchy or have the same fabric all the way around. I've made two for myself so far and have requests for 4 more, and each time I wear one I get compliments on how cute it is.
So, to reiterate the price:
If jeans are supplied: $30
If jeans are not supplied: $40
