Question

[detholalle.livejournal.com]

Ok, here is a question for all you jewelry sellers out there...
This lady wants to buy these necklace/bracelet sets from me. I know how much each individual piece costs to make, but how much do you charge for labor? Someone once told me that for things that are handmade, you tack on 2.5% but I think that is a little high for the sets she wants, because there isn't much to them. So what do you all do?

Also, wanted to share my enthusiasm...I went to a gem and mineral show in town yesterday and was happy to see that the bead lady was back for yet another year. I got some really awesome gemstone beads. Two huge strands of tiger eye and amethyst chips. 8mm picture jasper, blue lace agate, rose quartz, cat's eye, and amethyst round beads. Fun fun. But now I am officially broke. :( So yeah, always check out those random shows, because you never know what you will find.
