Clever idea. Perhaps $25 for one this small (sounds fair?)...you have to see what materials will cost you and then go from there when coming up with a price.

I already know how much the materials cost, I did that math, and from 30-50 dollars would be the price counting the labor, materials and shipping. Yes this is a small one but I am also going to be selling a full sized one which will be the size of a normal yarn tail but with the ability to put stuff inside of it.

Then I think you know what you can charge for them ^_^ good luck!

Thank you ^^

Hmm, would you mind sharing your technique with me? This is a very original, awesome idea. I would like to make something like this at least for myself, but part of a bigger tail.... Very interesting indeed

Actually I am working on a "Tail Pouch" Prototype. I crochet the pouch add the zipper then sew on the fur. If you want to make it quick and easy. All you have to do is make a tail out of Fo-fur the size that you want, and instead of filling it up with cotton, make a pouch and on the seam that you are going to sew it shut on, add the zipper (make sure to cover up the zipper with some cloth so that the teeth don't get caught in the fur) then fill in the surrounding area with cotton so that it's like a plushy purse that you can by anywhere. Then you sew it all shut. Add how you want to attach it. And that's all. :)

Oh man I typed up this big long response and it all got deleted cause my internet went out right when I hit "send" >___<

Anyway though, I make my tails out of yarn and what I was thinking of doing was making a full length tail, but only having part of it used as a pouch like thing. I DO know how to crochet, but I don't entirely know how flexible a full length tail would be if it was crocheted. So then I was thinking of making the pouch part out of fabric (not furred, just regular fabric) but that doesn't sound very durable.

My bases are braids, so I wonder if there's any way to combine your idea with those bases???


This seems like it would be a supah cool thing, if we could figure it out

I HATE when that happens.

Well I have been trying to find ways but it's very hard. a pouch is just not something that we can make flexible unless we make it a very thin pouch. or out of very soft fabric and we add a weight to the bottom that will provide it with motion.

Yeah, I'm more or less worried about flexibility in the lower part of the tail, because if the pouchy thingie was at the top of the tail flexibility wouldn't really matter much anyway

yes but then it wouldn't fit all that much. What we can do is make a loose "cage" with the yarn that we use to make the tail base. then we can make the brade, add the bag on the inside of the "cage" and from there, add yarn.... somehow...

well, I'm currently in the process of attempting a super thick tail. So I was thinking something along the same lines you were, like maybe opening up the braid at the top and putting the fabric-y stuff in there, and the somehow securing the yarn over the fabric. Maybe glue or just plain sewing them together.

I am going to try and make a few prototypes and if I find something that works I'll let you know.
