OMG for $4 I wouldn't even get out of bed to sew. And for those who are saying $5 or $6....they'd have to be a close, bosom buddy for all that work!!!

Oh...I agree $4. is not enough. I have a small candle business and have done a lot of craft shows. I usually check out a lot of the other booths...and sometimes buy. I bought one of those "in style" knitted scarves and I paid $20. for it. You HAVE to pay yourself for your time.

I think $10. is a good price.

In figuring my candle price I charge $1.00 per ounce. And if the jar I use is more expensive than a jelly jar then it is price higher. And my candles sell...and no one blinks an eye. lol

I'd go by how much I want to make and hour and charge them at least that much, plus materials.

I think $5 is a great number. I have made tons of these little card cases. They sew up so fast and you can use up your scraps. I think you would sell a lot at $5 then you would charging $12.unless you live in an area that would pay that amount. Just my oppinion...

Those are really cute. I would think $10 at least and maybe more if you are selling in a reasonable market.
