Default If anyone wants GG to make them a parasol...

here is the perfect chantilly lace parasol cover! It's 24" across. Perfect for one of those small folding parasols. Take a look!

And what do you know, here is the perfect parasol for the chantilly lace cover!

Just to give you an idea: the lace cover is worth at least $150. It says 1890's, but it looks much earlier. The parsol should sell for $30-50, but I bought 3 for less than $20 each. You could have a wonderful parasol for under $200.

If Gypsy charged what she's really WORTH, Hint! Gypsy,
(She's only about 220% below what she should be charging for everything she makes.)

Your $200 parasol would cost you around $800.00 with the hours of time she puts in on them.
:rolleyes:

Looks like we need a Parasol Class.

Ima, only speaking the truth, Schofield
