Wish you good luck.

Everything is sooo cute. You'll be sure to sell.

I had a craft sale last fall - I figured out that my pillowcases cost me about $ 18.00 each - I was shocked - they take 3/4 of a yard of fabric for the body and another 1/4 yard for the sleeve - so that is one yard per pillowcase - and a little bit for an accent piece - this is not counting any labor (we will never get that back). So I am just warning you that its surprising how much it really costs to produce those items. I am like you - I enjoy making things and don't care if I make much money - most of the time I give things away. Good luck.

Good luck sell tons!!

Pillow cases take almost a yard of fabric. yes quick to make, but fabric averages $10.00/ yd.
Table runners, even the 10 minute one take 2 fabrics, almost a yd total. Again fast project. Rag rugs are beautiful. Unless everyone is making them price higher, lots of labor in them. Good luck. I do a lot of craft shows. It is always hasrd to know what will sell. If you price higher, you can always offer a 20% OFF THE LAST 2 HOURS OF SHOW. |
Don't know about the others but fabric for pillowcases run me more than $8
|
Sounds good, because I always unsell what I make.....
|
Very cute items! No help with pricing, I hate pricing!
|
I think you're right on with your prices. Hope you sell lots.
