Maybe if you can get the picture of satoshi, mods/staffs and other very reputation managers and very high ranking and known members.

Have you seen their faces?

This made me laugh, funny suggestion, and interesting answer.

Cups looks great, to BTC or not to BTC! Great idea, with more ideas like that one you can start business with hand made cups, if they are hand made, maybe that is just a printer?!
SFR10 asked a good question here, I would like to know some answers too:

The main issue is the way these cups are being made. Can you clarify if these are being made with a special equipment that produces enough heat (to attach the image) and if you also do some coating to make them wear and water resistant or you simply just draw directly on the cups?

Thanks for the attention guys. I really should to think about the assortment, two cups is really too small choice. Delivery is also important point and of course prices. How do you think payment in crypto is going to be more attractive than dollars or euro?

Interesting idea you have here, pictures on the cups looks great. I think you should definitely try to make some little business from this. Why not to accept any kind of payment, fiat or crypto. Put the price in currency that suits you and state that you accept any currency with same value. I would like to hear price for your cups, and some other informations of course, more informations you provide more people will have trust in what you do. I will give you some merits, maybe that can motivate you to be more active about it and to put even more effort in your little business. Good luck!

It depends. For local sales, probably won't but it has an advantage (ease of use) for sales in this forum or through a website (for both buyers and seller [you]).

A good write up can help advertise your work too.

You have some knowledge to design and painting. Cups are not highly priced. I don't think designing only cups will give you comparable income. So, I suggest if you can do portrait picture and design. Maybe if you can get the picture of satoshi, mods/staffs and other very reputation managers and very high ranking and known members.

Don't let others control your BTC -> self custody

They look nice. THe only concern I'd have is the durability of the paint. I have a lot of cups with logos and they're somehow surviving the dishwasher without any signs of wear. You'd have to check how your cups will look after a gentle scrub under hot water. The second concern is the shipping. You'd have to double package them, bubble wrap and all that stuff to make sure they don't get chipped.
The work looks nice. I like handmade stuff.

PM me to buy my sig space.

I would say good work! Those cups look nice... although albeit old-fashioned. I like the second design though so Tongue

.

I think it would be better if you just took a popular meme from the internet about bitcoin and just somehow found a way to plaster that onto the cup

I support all bitcoin related businesses. Its can be a nice start, what should you do is to give us prices for this cups, to share more ideas and if you have more hand made products you should post them too.
I think that anything can become good business if you are dedicated, if you have good strategy how to present your products to people. Like others say you need to show effort, on some sites you can calculate shipping prices, post here prices for shipping from your place to couple countries, for example from your place to EU, US, Asia, choose couple big cities. I like to see prices, we all do that will be a lot of help to a future buyers. You can post price in dollars and coins you plan to accept, I would like to know how much can cost something like this.

I like the look, I would even order for myself one or two. Your point is not finished, yes, you are only asking for advice in this thread and here we all are bitcoin lovers, but where is all details for the way if I wish to order you some cups, for example?
Did you think about where you will sell that and if you posted it here I guess you are thinking about the whole world as the marketplace, so you need to think about shipping, which currency you are going to accept and what is the final price of the product it is going to be. There are really many details you need to think about before to start such small handmade business.
And in the end I wish to say that if you wish the income would be regular, just like you announced, you will need to wide the number of goods that you can produce to satisfy as much needs of possible clients as it possible.
Good luck!

If it's the latter, then you'll be having difficulty selling these (since chances of these painting not lasting for a long time, will be high).

Do you guys think cups are going to be in demand or I should to concentrate on something else?

Since you'll be doing this based on a crypto theme (only), then there will be some difficulties (in regards to having enough demand).

First Exclusion Ever

Make a few designs and post pics of them here, if they are reasonably priced I am sure you can sell them. Also, I would suggest making a bunch of them and sending them to some one who is trusted in the US to ship them out for you to cut down on shipping costs since it appears you are located in Russia. Good luck.

I recently made such cups for my friend who joined me to the community. My actual job is just paining and cups cost not so much indeed. My friend says that it can become some kind of job to me, cause of with new Merit system and forum ranks requirements it is going to be hard for me to join any project on the forum, so it is kinda may be a stable income to me. Do you guys think cups are going to be in demand or I should to concentrate on something else?

Questioned about demand later and proceed on your plan and risks some capital. You will never know the output until you have done it.

My suggestion is, touch first your local community and see how it well goes. That's a good startup if you able to start selling those at your nearby places first for less hassle transaction. Then after some time and you analyzed now what's the best thing to do, move up and take another level by selling those globally. This will need knowledge about global payments.
