So I made a felt busy book for my niece’s first birthday which turned out pretty good. It took me about 3 months to make hers, which included planning out what to do/ how to do it etc. the start up cost put me back about $150. My partner’s sister asked me to make one for a friend, granted she asked me a week before she needed it but I got that one done in about 5 days (I did stay up until about 5am the night before finishing it). It cost me probably $30 to make the second one, but I also had left over materials so I only had to buy a few pieces of felt/glue and didn’t have to buy things like fabric scissors or a hole puncher etc. I want to start making and selling them but I’m not sure how much to charge for labor or even the base price because I only spent $30 this time but next time I’ll need to buy more felt so it’ll cost me more. If it’s not obvious I overthink a lot or can’t think at all there’s really no in between. I’ve also been worried it’ll be too stressful when people are actually paying me to make it so I’ve tried to come up with other things like making little stuffed felt alphabets. Idk, I’m really arts and crafts motivated I’ve made a few clay sculptures/busts too, I’m just sick and tired of working at stupid jobs I want to do something that makes me happy. I mostly want pricing thoughts but any advice is appreciated!!
