I recently finished Feriana.co.nz, a simple Drupal 6 site for my fiancée and her handbag business. It uses CCK, Views and Panels 2 alpha, as well as ImageField, ImageCache and Lightbox2 modules. I also wrote Image Themer and Views Themer modules, which I contributed to the Themer package and plan to abstract in to re-usable solutions in my next Drupal 6 theming project which I start this week. I will also be demonstrating these modules at the Advanced Theming Techniques session (if it gets in – Go Vote!). You browse the still-very-alpha code for these modules in Drupal's CVS repository.
The site is a good example of what can be achieved with a small budget and flexible requirements. I spent no more than 30 hours total on this website including some contrib-module development, photoshop slicing and resizing and a little custom theming. The base-theme is foliage. Before commencing I spent a few hours in conversation with my fiancée (the 'client') working out what was most important sketching some paper prototypes.

Hi again!
I like your wife's site.
I've chosen Drupal to showcase handcrafted projects as well. Just 30 hours? Damn, I must be doing something wrong. ;]
Yeah. I know. You've years of experience under your belt. Looking forward to the day that it will only take ME 30 hours to put together a nice little shop.
Best to you and yours.
Only 30 hours ???
Wow. Only 30 hours for this site ?
How much time for writing the 2 modules ? Is it possibile to see the code ?
Bye.
Sure – it's still extremely
Sure – it's still extremely alpha but I'm working on it between now and christmas; http://cvs.drupal.org/viewvc.py/drupal/contributions/modules/themer/
Nice work!
Nice work, the site looks good and seems to serve it's purpose well. Since it's related content I thought you might like to see a site we built earlier this year that sells bags other products for parents.

We also wrote a module for Ubercart Quickbooks Integration for the project that allows Quickbooks to pull the customers and orders over.
