What would you pay?

I have been making these little baby/kid hats pretty quick and I know I could sell them. I have an etsy shop started, I have had it ready and waiting to be filled with products for months...hmmm...actually closer to a year now!
Anyway, I have a couple different styles I can make and I just love to give them to friends and family as gifts but I know people would buy them. I can do whatever color/weight people would want. I was thinking of selling them for $8-10.  Here's what they typically go for on Etsy...What do you think? What would you pay? Thanks!

  1. So cute Dearie! I think you should sell on etsy. Your prices are low, but if you want to sell, maybe underselling the competition is the way to go. I think some of etsy pricing is pretty high. You do GOOD work!

  2. I agree, you'd be selling low but $10 would be good. Depending on how long it takes & the little designs you add I would say $15 is ok too! (and I'm crazy cheap about stuff)

  3. Annie, I was looking at big store stuff and this type of hat with a fleece lining (and machine made) was selling for 14-16 bucks. I think you are right in the ballpark and being handmade and unique makes them doubly doable.

  4. I think yours are well-priced for being a new product. I also think you could sell a variety of clip-ons for solid color hats for $2-$3 each (a clip-on for every holiday, season, and animal (mythical or real)!). I bet those would go like hot cakes!!
