What do I do about this?

A few months ago, I showed my coworkers the kandi I have made. One of them had a friend there that she was talking to, and she suggested I make an Alvin And The Chipmunks Chipettes themed piece for the friend's daughter who absolutely LOVES them. She said she would find something for me to put on it, and today she said that she found a Chipette beanie baby and will be bringing it in tomorrow so I can work on it before the friend's daughter's 39th birthday next week. Then she said we could discuss payment after it is finished. I told her I don't sell the things I make, and she just kept saying she wouldn't feel right not paying me for it, and kept insisting that she pays me for it. She is very persistent and will not take no for an answer. What do I do about this? (also, what should I make her?)

That's a good idea Crumpet, thanks. I'll do just that happy Also, the lady isn't a raver, and i'm pretty sure she'll love it happy (none of them even know what kandi actually is, my coworker just liked the pieces i've done and thought her friend's daughter would like a chipettes themed one)

Let her pay you. It will make her feel better. But put all of the money she gives you back into supplies, and then use the supplies to make kandi that you trade/give out to people. Her friend's daughter is 39? Unless she's a raver, I doubt she is going to wear whatever you make for her. So maybe you could put the beanie baby on something that looks pretty as an ornament, like a 3D cuff. If you have perler beads you could even make some small chipmunk themed perlers to go around the cuff. I'm not sure what though.
