You've put a lot of work into these - buttonhole, button, keyring. Add the cost of fabric, thread, your time to cut and assemble. Your fabrics are gorgeous and you do very nice work. Your keyrings look like they are color coordinated, too. JMHO

I think $4.00 is too low..but $10.00 a little high..$8.00 would be more like it..depending if you want to sell them..and how well you like to make them..I know crafters do not get paid well for their time..but if you like making them and want to sell more..you can not charge what they may be worth..if there is not a copyright problem try selling them on this site..and see what happens

I agree! Never mix business with family and friends. Business is business period.
My hubby and son can attest to that!

I agree that $4 is way too little to charge for these! I think the $12 range is closer, depending on how much time it takes to make these. My rule of thumb is that if I can't make over minimum wage for my time AND pay for materials, it's not worth my time. People can choose to buy, or not.
