The "best" part of this is how the people who say things like that always completely fail to grasp how much you'd have to charge for a handmade item just to break even. I've lost count of how many times I've held up most of a sock and told someone, "I paid twenty bucks for the yarn alone and I've probably put fifteen hours into this so far. You really wanna pay me what this is actually worth?"

(My dad also keeps saying I need to find a way to make money of my custom My Little Ponies. Holy not-recognizing-a-niche-market-when-you-see-one, Batman.)

Actually, you can make a pretty decent amount off of custom ponies. My sister used to do it for a while and while she wasn't rolling in dough, it earned her a fair amount of extra spending money. You'll get even more if you're willing to take commissions.

If you do anything more dramatic than rehair-and-new-symbol you have to be jaw-droppingly good to make a profit once you factor in time spent, and I specialize in heavy sculpting.

This. My art is photography - and by that I mean old fashioned black and white photography done in the traditional wet darkroom. The cost to get a really good print for the paper, film, chemicals and time in the darkroom makes it a really expensive hobby. There is reason silver gelatin prints cost what it does.

Heck even digital prints done on good paper with really good inks can cost lot to produce.
