Pricing is where most makers go wrong, usually by charging too little. Underpricing feels kind and safe, but it means you work for nothing, you cannot afford to grow, and you can never sell to shops at wholesale. Let's fix it with a simple formula. Start with materials: the cost of everything that goes into one item, including small things like thread, glue, jump rings and labels. Then labour: the time to make one item, multiplied by an hourly rate you would accept for skilled work. Then overheads: a share of tools, electricity, packaging, photography props and fees. A simple approach is to add 10 to 20 percent of materials plus labour. Cost price equals materials plus labour plus overheads. Wholesale price equals cost price times two, which is what a shop would pay you. Retail price equals wholesale price times two, which is what customers pay. The doubling steps are a widely used rule of thumb in retail, not a law. Some makers use smaller multipliers, especially if they never plan to sell wholesale. But even if you only sell direct, pricing at retail leaves room for marketplace fees, discounts, mistakes and profit.
