If you don't mind sharing, what are you planning to charge for them? (I always have a terrible time trying to price my bags)

That's a good question! As I'm in the UK, I don't know if it's comparable as my material cost is in general higher. I reckon these cost me around £8 to make so I was thinking of charging somewhere around £12-15. This is around $18. I've never done a craft fair before so was planning on asking the organiser of this fair who is also a card maker, if she thought that was reasonable.

Thanks for sharing :)
I think that is a very reasonable price for something hand-made. If they sell very quickly, you'll know that you can raise your prices a bit more next time :D

Lovely bags. I wish you well in your endeavor to sell them. Pricing items is always difficult. Don't want to be too high, but don't want to be too low either on prices. But it is easier to lower the price than to raise it!
