[speaker001:] okay okay do you uh do any woodworking
[speaker002:] I do and I really love it um
[speaker001:] oh um what do you do for a hobby or for
[speaker002:] uh-huh I do it for a hobby
[speaker001:] um-hum
[speaker002:] and I have my own equipment and I have a jig saw and a scroll saw and uh in the process of getting a router
[speaker001:] um-hum
[speaker002:] and so I like to cut out my wood and then tole paint on the items that I cut out what kind of things do you like to do with wood
[speaker001:] well I'm not the one that cuts them out my husband cuts them out but um
[speaker002:] uh-huh
[speaker001:] he likes using the little band saws and jig saws more than the stroll saw because the stroll saw is
[speaker002:] uh-huh
[speaker001:] is a lot slower
[speaker002:] uh-huh
[speaker001:] and then um he's got a router but now he wants a plunge router
[speaker002:] oh yeah
[speaker001:] but anyhow he cuts them out and then I I took a tole painting class
[speaker002:] oh um-hum
[speaker001:] to learn how to paint them right you know
[speaker002:] um-hum
[speaker001:] and what we wanna do is you know make them and then maybe take them to these craft shows or flea market things and see and see if we can sell some of them
[speaker002:] uh-huh yes
[speaker001:] but uh I really like it so far
[speaker002:] oh that is fun
[speaker001:] and then my neighbor had a little doll made out of wood so I took a pattern off of that
[speaker002:] um-hum
[speaker001:] and then it's just a wooden doll with a painted face and then you you make the dress for it
[speaker002:] uh-huh
[speaker001:] and you drill holes around the top of the head and you you stick in uh like rope
[speaker002:] oh uh-huh the twine
[speaker001:] and tie ribbons around it it looked really cute you know so I've got a couple of those started
[speaker002:] yeah those are so cute they are really cute
[speaker001:] yeah and then uh but as far as wood work that's all we've been doing right now
[speaker002:] oh that is that sounds really fun I love those well they have a really fancy boutique out here in Ogden Utah
[speaker001:] um-hum
[speaker002:] and I just got back from that today so if you could get your projects into boutiques oh they are wonderful
[speaker001:] um-hum
[speaker002:] you could make a lot of money from those
[speaker001:] what do you do I wonder how you you just they buy them from you or you just give them to them on consignment or something
[speaker002:] uh apparently with that boutique um they take oh what was it twenty percent of the sell price you would put your sell price
[speaker001:] um-hum um-hum um-hum
[speaker002:] uh and then they would take twenty percent off of that
[speaker001:] um I see
[speaker002:] at the counter and so and then at the end of the boutique which usually runs for a week
[speaker001:] um-hum um-hum
[speaker002:] then they give you what you earned
[speaker001:] um-hum um-hum
[speaker002:] so you have to decide what your price is going to be and then
[speaker001:] um-hum
[speaker002:] up it twenty percent so you can get what you need out of it
[speaker001:] um-hum
[speaker002:] so if the customers are willing to pay it then you get a profit
[speaker001:] yeah these little things are so cute though you know
[speaker002:] they are I I have seen those those are darling
