Many years ago a friend of mine bought me a very expensive golf stroke counter and it was made of plastic. It was nice but my friend said "why don't you make some of these with your polymer clay beads?" The first time I put them in my Etsy shop I sold 10 counters in a week and got orders for more. For a while, I wasn't keeping up very well with my Etsy shop but I decided it was time to get back into it. I sell the counters for $15 and shipping and I know with all the work I put into them I'm not making any money but if I raised the price, I wouldn't sell any either.
These are a few of the latest ones I put in my shop. I make the beads, bake them, put three coats of glaze on them and bake them again. Every counter has some glitzy beads on the bottom. They can be used to keep track of how many times you walk around the block and how many times you let the dog out.
I'm going golfing.
