[Nfb-krafters-korner] Pricing craft items

[Barb Roland]

The consensus I’ve read about on Facebook is 2 -3 times the cost of the yarn you used as a minimum. You can factor in your time at a certain wage if you choose, some will also factor in a little for the difficulty level of the project. I personally have sold a few items generally at 2x the cost of material plus shipping and maybe just a tad bit more. Non crafters do not realize the cost of supplies and the amount of time it take to make each item.
Oh yes, I have gone over to Easy.com and looked at similar items to see they are pricing them at..
