I love how in depth this is, when I first started beading I had no idea how to charge and I used to undercharge which wasn’t great for me! and in the end I wasn’t really gaining a profit Iol now that I have more than a year of experience I like to charge about $20 an hour 😊 this will be rlly helpful for those who are unsure!

On average I spend about 1-2 weeks on a project, have been beading since the age of 12 or so, I’m currently 57, use only charlotte 13s cut beads, and am from Nooksack tribe, most of my work is for trade, and will be passed down to my grandkids. It’s wonderful to see your bead work, and you are teaching others to do the same.

I do think this important- we often under value ourselves. In the end, it’s all about what people will spend on your product - if you’re wanting to sell it anyway - and then you have to rethink what you’re doing and the time you’re putting into it for the money you’re making- I learned this the hard way over the years.

Thank you so much. I watched you live on tik tok yesterday. I commented that you have a nice teaching voice. Your work is done perfectly. I love the earrings you made and appreciate your answers to my comments. So happy you have a you tube channel and I can follow your work here . This chart helps me a lot…….now if only I can understand how to get the file and make a copy 🥴…I’m not good with computer programs so I’m sure that will be a challenge. Not too many crafters will share about supplies costs venders etc….so I’m grateful that you have taken the time here. Looking forward to following your beading journey🤗🤗🤗

Wow girl you are so amazing! Thank you so much for offering this for free! I would be willing to pay a fee to have this calculate all this for me. You are so sweet to give of your time and talent to help others! ❤️❤️❤️

I love your channel! I am a new to selling my bead work and I have been struggling to figure out my pricing! I have been grossly undercharging for ages. My work is just starting to become more popular where I am and I want to get into selling more beading, but charge what I actually need to charge a good amount for my work! Thanks for the in depth video and pricing spreadsheet! 💜💜💜💜

could you make a video on how to take custom orders and how to go about that?

You went above and beyond! Thank you for sharing that with us! I'm not at a point for selling, I just bead here and there when I'm in the mood. Right now I'm making myself a new pair for Orange shirt day. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge with us.

found you on IG, I love your tiktoks and IG - now I'm here - your work is amazing

This video is soooo incredibly helpful!! I’m selling my first pair of earrings with this guide! Thank you sm!!

Thank you so much for doing this! I have my very first jewelry showing coming up and was wondering about pricing. This is awesome.

This made me feel so much better about the quotes I sent out yesterday. I’m waiting to hear back and keep getting nervous it’s way too much but I realize now it’s undercharging a bit if anything

This is a fantastic video! Very well done.

Priceless video, thank you!

Thank you so much for sharing this Spreadsheet!

This is very helpful for beaders! I will share on my blog (beadinggem) so readers can check out your awesome channel!

Thank you for sharing your experience in such an amazing way. It will surely help us how to take care of minutest details. Love from India.❤

Definitely needed this thank you so much ❤😊!!!!

Thank you for this! We love an excel queen I wish I could do excel haha. I see so many people post beadwork that seems really high and some that seems so cheap for the amount of time it looks like it took to put into it. I see you on Facebook I love your work ❤️

Amazing. Thank you for sharing.

This is great, thank you ☺

THANK YOU!!!

Very helpful. I've been not even paying myself for labor! That's gonna stop right now!

This really helped! I make jewelery for 14 years but now i want to do another technique and try to sell them but do i need to count those 14 years or just none because i just started this technique.. what is fair?

What are best options for payments if you don't have a website yet?

I'd recommend paypal because you can use it internationally and it has invoicing features and free deposits :)

Okay I absolutely love this guide, but I have a question. How would you figure a price before you complete the beadwork?

Would you mind sharing the link for felt you buy from Amazon?

Hey! Wonderful video! I tried getting the spreadsheet but the original (and the copy I made) were blank! Are you still offering this spreadsheet or no? Thanks :)

I'm not sure why that's happening! It's still works on my end, you have to use it in google docs, it doesn't convert to excel very well.

😅 can you make excel tutorials haha. This is amazing.

How to download

Can I get a copy of this spreadsheet?

Spreadsheet link via description, you have to access and copy it in Google sheets

This tells me I'm charging way less than I should for my work but then who would buy it. 🤔
