Today's NEW Digi - Rory & his football

Hello!

Can't believe its Thursday, I totally missed WOYWW!! Had a lovely day yesterday though. Some smuggles with Eva, Flissy & Charlotte...yey!

Been feeling pretty low & sorry for myself today, but cheered myself up by sunbathing a bit & then doing another new digi.

This one is named after my first (& so far only) nephew Rory.

it is called 'Rory & his football'

You can buy Rory from my shop HERE

Hopefully I'll get some crafting done soon, just waiting for hubby to take my desk up into the office.

Have a good evening. Its gone very dark here so think it may tinkle it down!!!

How I price my toys ....

.....I thought I would share with you today how I price my knitted Monsters.
I spent a long time researching how to price them and looking at how much other people charge for their toys (which are often not CE tested which they should be!)
Pricing ingredients: Cost of the products: wool, stuffing Use of equipment & other: Knitting needles, scissors, electricity for lights My time: Designing the toy, knitting the toy, testing the toy CE Test: Making sure my toy is to CE standards
Now you have to decided how much you want to pay yourself an hour and any extra profit
How much do you get paid an hour? Shall we say minimum wage £7.50 per hour
The largest toy I make is Pookiechu (the pink one) she takes me 16 hours to make 16 x 7.50 = 120
so that makes Pookiechu £120 before I've even added on the cost of any wool etc!
I therefore decided to pay myself a lot less and she became £65 However even though I know you are paying for a quality toy made with quality products and to the CE stand…
