wondering how I come up with prices for my crochet items? me too ๐Ÿคฃ so I just sat down to figure it out. this is my business. I spend all day attending to Poshmark and crocheting. spending 6hrs/day crocheting is a conservative estimate. $1500 is the bare minimum I need to pay bills and eat. I'm always underestimating how long it takes me to complete a project. I'm also a bit of an anal perfectionist, and do not want to charge people for the extra time it takes me to get something JUST RIGHT... I will start adding my estimated time in the listing as well. but I think $8 - $10 per hour is a reasonable rate. if you've noticed the Original Price on my crochet listings, that is based on how much I should charge at $15/hr plus cost of materials. I think it's a bit ridiculous to expect anyone to pay that much tho! This is my pricing strategy for Poshmark. I will not be sending offers or reducing my crochet items nearly as much as I am willing to reduce my closet or other Boutique items. Also, PM shipping is a FANTASTIC deal, & it is cheaper for you to pay than me to raise the price to cover. most items will be cross listed on Etsy, if you want to compare prices ๐Ÿ˜˜ thanks for understanding! and THANK YOU for reading all of this!! and more importantly, THANK YOU SO MUCH for supporting your local artists, instead of the fast fashion industry & exploitation of poverty ๐Ÿ’— see my About page web link (Linktree) to find me all over the web HAPPY POSHING ๐Ÿฅ‚๐ŸŒน

cuddleupcrochet Thanks for valuing your work and the work of others like you...like me...I live on a small disability check and I crochet to cover my daily living and medical expenses...I personally know all too well the time it takes to make things with my two hands, some yarn and a crochet hook!๐Ÿ˜Šโ˜บ๏ธ๐Ÿ˜Š

poshhooking @cuddleupcrochet ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ˜˜๐Ÿ’• ๐Ÿ’ฏ it is easy to devalue your own work, especially when it's all done ... but yes! trying to remember that this is a skill/trade worth just as much as any other! and your blankets are DEFINITELY worth the money for as much yarn and time and GORGEOUSNESS they embody ๐Ÿ’œ if anyone needs a blanket made up, I'm sending them your way ๐Ÿฅ‚๐ŸŒน

kjohnson250_ @thorkk This is a smart post!! I was actually asked how I figure mine and couldnโ€™t answer but that I always give my best price and assure buyer itโ€™s no where near what I should be chargingโ€ฆ the time the effort the designs most appreciate and understandโ€ฆ can I use some of this in my listings??

poshhooking @kjohnson250_ it is totally worth it to figure out how to price your work!! it really should be worth your time and cover cost of materials ๐Ÿ’œ

kjohnson250_
kjohnson250_ @thorkk Absolutely agree!! Think Iโ€™ll add in each handmade listing a background of my time my cost and why to buy from an artistโ€ฆ. Keep it simple, what do you think? ๐Ÿค”
