Maybe I am in the wrong place… but maybe not.

Does anyone on here sell their bracelets in a local shop? I have to the opportunity to start selling them in a spot here in Maine and am trying to figure out (once again) how to price my bracelets….

I was thinking a base pay of $10. And then 25 cents a string, so a 22 string bracelet would end up being about $15.50? Does that sound fair? Or overpriced

It depends on how long it takes you to make a bracelet, in my opinion starting at $10 could be a little much but if it takes you more than 1 day I would say its fin but maybe add a sign wherever you're selling them explaining why you have the prices. I would be fine paying that much but some people might not especially if they don't make bracelets.

I think that pricing is fair. Know your worth and value your time. Making bracelets is a skill and a talent so make sure you are getting paid for that! I love the idea of adding a sign explaining the pricing. Would also recommend adding something saying that they are hand knotted so people know they are handmade!

i haven’t sold many bracelets but when i do, people seem to love them. i started off by selling them at $3 but people said that was too much. i think 5 is reasonable if they are good and especially if they are in a professional shop in your town

maybe 10 could be for bigger bracelets or maybe you could do 10 for alphas and 5 for normals
