Does anyone sell their crochet items?

I made these two but I am lost on pricing them. Any advice?

Ok first of all this is so cute 😂 the knives!!! The detail is awesome. And I also crochet a TON and have been trying to get into selling my stuff. I started by making an Instagram page for my art but I think I’m going to make an Etsy too and just try to advertise the heck out of it on my main page. Not sure what size your above project is but I’d say you could easily get $50 for the big one and $30 for the small one. It’s so hard to gauge prices if you feel like people won’t pay for it but someone somewhere is looking for the exact item you’re selling ya know!

Supplies, time it took and compensation a little for shipping.

These are so cute!!! How long did they take to make? Did someone ask you to make them?

If I got to sit and crochet uninterrupted it would only take a couple of hours, but I have 3 kids so I have to constantly stop working. I saw the pattern and just had to have it lol

They say to take total amount of money for your supplies & then multiply it by 4 & that will give you your base price . Then you can kind of go up or down from there

These are TOO CUTE!! 😍😍 I own a business as well as help other business start up or/& help them throughout their business history i.e manage/build website, help with pricing and advertisement, getting their brands seen and send hundreds of people to their site on the daily etc. To help you I'll give this BASIC style of calculating price: ●Minimum wage in your state x 2hrs= $14.50 ●cost of supplies to make these 2 i.e yarn & needle= $12 $14.50 + $12 = $26.50 $26.50 is what it cost you to make these 2 cuties in the picture. Now it's time to price to sell. You need 2 price point, wholesale and retail price. It's good to know your limit of what you'll never charge below (wholesale) and if someone asks if they can get maybe 3 or more you can charge wholesale cost knowing you're still getting your worth and maybe gained a loyal client. What you charge in your store is retail. $26.50 × 2 is wholesale $53 $26.50 × 3 is retail $79.50 ($80) Sell these 2 cuties as a set so potential customers see price worth

Cute. Looks like Grim from The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy
