Description
This is my first time on making something with clay, and the first time I make a Companion Cube Box xD It's not perfect, but I'm proud of it, it ended up pretty good looking. Better than expected.I made this for my boyfriend's birthday. I had other few ideas, but they all went to hell 'cause I couldn't afford buying them, or they weren't in stock, etc... -.-' But then I saw a box and a pack of clay and this idea came out xD
It took 6 days of non-stop working. I had my doubts on finishing it on time, but I made it! so... "This was a triumph ~"
I'm thinking on making more, do you think there's any chance I could sell them? >.<
Thanks for your time, for passing by and for your comments, and remember: Your Aperture Science Weighted Companion Cube will never threaten to stab you. It will accompany you and never leave you. Please take care of it. ~
PS: My crafting skills leveled up!

Hi!
I've been thinking and making some numbers, and I think it's not a good idea to sell them. It takes too much time, especially now that I'm working, and I also have to study.
As for the price, people may not see it something worth more than 30-40$, and that would be 22-30€, that's 1€ per hour working... As I said I have to work, study and live xD also, I need to buy materials and dedicate to it a lot of time, so I need to put a higher price to this for me to be a profitable thing to do.
But adding shipping costs, which to Europe are 8.54€, and to the rest of the world are 12.04€ (15.89$), the price rises a bit more and that's something I think people may not like too much ^^' (and I understand).
So unless someone wants it really really badly and would be willing to buy it for 55$ plus shipping costs, I think it's not profitable. Hope you understand.
Anyway, thanks so much to everyone who passed by, liked it and wanted to buy one!
See ya!

I think boxes like that would be very sellable, since the Companion Cube is a STORAGE Cube too, it'd be a neat thing to have. If I got the money by the time you make them, and if I can afford having them shipped to austria, I'd buy. Very nice work XD

You're welcome ^^ I didn't know about the cookie jars, but I think a little box for storing all kinds of small stuff is more fitting for a companion cube, anyway. That, or a cake dish ^^

actually a company is already selling them as cookie jars. I can remember who it is though. I saw it in a magazine. Not saying you shouldn't make more because you did a really good job on this.
