This year I'd like to share more about how disability impacts my work-life, how I manage to work in spite of being audhd and physically disabled, my coming mechanisms and tips. I'll probably tag them, idk with what yet!! ♿💜

I make them with an embroidery machine and sewing everything by hand! Working the machine is about 30 min, maybe one hour? (I haven't made another platypus in months). Sewing all together is about the same. I've lowered the price on my website but in this case I'll do 10 bucks an hour + material!
25 is probably close to what I price these. Depending on what I used maybe 30 🤔 You're meant to take into account smaller fees, tear and wear, packaging costs, so I try to just count them in the material price (I'll add 5 or so).
I first had to go through accepting my life is going to be different (chronic illness) before understanding it was always necessary to find accommodations (was always AUDHD/disabled). So perhaps your needs are not met, that's a first step to acknowledge. Maybe you need a helper from time to time?
Owning your own place is something more difficult for disabled folks, so that pressure needs to be faced with realistic facts. It can take years to move on, step by step!!
