Many years ago when I started doing handwork for pay I was told the following formula.

hourly wage + materials x 2 = wholesale price

This has worked pretty well for me. People used to dicker about price with me when I started. I raised my hourly fee. Now I get nearly no complaints. My work is pretty specialized and folks can't get it elsewhere. I have essentially tripled my hourly fee over the past 10 years as my work has improved. I need to raise my fees again.

Good luck!
