My Latest Rings - Need advice though...

rubbish at naming stuff (sounds like you have it sorted now anyway) but just wanted to say that your spoon rings are fab!

how much are you charging for them? (just out of interest

)

£39 which includes the packaging but not the posting.

Once I've got a load of work out the way and have some free time, I'll be listing a load of them in my shop.

Vickie, they are great, very nicely done! Love the idea, especially with the background stuff too!!

Your rings are looking great. I used to try naming my stuff but I quickly gave up! You've done a great job with yours though!

I've sorted myself out with a spreadsheet that does all the maths for me - so all I have to do now is enter the cost of my materials and my time - it then figures out and adds on my overheads, then my packaging and gives me my wholesale price, I then add my own percentage on to this and hey presto have my retail proce - I've had tins of advice on here from folk on pricing and I feel totally fine with my pricing structure now. I can tweek things here and there if I think the price that's generated is too high or too low. I think £39 reflects the cost and work that goes into each ring. My OH think I should cahrge more but I disagree with him.

I think the price seems about right.

I also have my own similar spreadsheet, it does help take the guesswork out of pricing!

Oh wow, these are gorgeous.

I absolutely love your rings. Just a thought, but surely those patterns would be listed in some old book on silverware. Antique dealers may be able to help you there.

Also, on the name Boreas. Just a hint for you - the 'B' is pronounced as a 'V', and the emphasis is on the second half of the word, not on the first half, as you might expect if it were an English word.
