Pricing handmade jewelry is probably the one aspect of selling jewelry that confuses people the most. So today, I’m going to give you some suggestions for how to go about this task.

Pricing Handmade Jewelry

You must take into consideration the cost of the materials used and the cost of your labour. Other factors such as target market and the location where you are selling your jewelry also come into play.

I have written about these in more detail in the first post that I wrote about selling handmade jewelry. You can read the article here.

Don’t forget that consumers link price to the value of the item. You don’t want to use quality materials, spend hours making a piece of jewelry and then practically give it away by pricing it super low!

Make sure to time yourself when making jewelry so you know how much to charge for labour. If you’re anything like me, you get so excited about making a new piece of jewelry that you forget to time yourself to see how long it took you to make. Then, after you’ve lost yourself in the jewelry-making process, you have to guess how much time went by!

Knowing how long you spent making a piece is very important if you’re going to be fair to yourself and to your customers. No overcharging or undercharging anymore! Time yourself and you’ll be good to go!

Use these tips and tools when pricing handmade jewelry in the future.
