Daily Wire Jewelry Making Tip
June 18, 2010

Question:

I’ve made one of your Chevron bracelets (found in Wirework) and was wondering, what do you usually sell yours for? I know yours would sell for a lot more than mine, since I’m just learning this pattern, but I have made one and was curious. Much thanks for everything.

Answer:

As far as my bracelet selling for more than yours, Sherry, that is not necessarily true. Think about what you have just made; actually two different projects combined into one. What would you charge individually for each project, according to the materials/stone used? Now add those two prices together and add a bit more for the “designer” aspect; this is your price! For more information, please see my recent article, How to Price Your Wire Jewelry. Just remember to never devalue your pieces!
