    Hi, I figure that’s about what your cost is about 10 bucks and then yes if you’re selling them, you wanna make sure you’re putting in for the cost of materials the time and then you triple your cost about 45 bucks making these with graduation coming up sooner cause we just had herone of our college graduations last weekend for college I’m attending
