I just received my first job making kids costumes. It’s more seamstress work than actual designing. How do I charge, per piece or per hour? How do I know whats reasonable?
Add in $5.00 for fabric, add in another $6.00 for labor,
add in $2.00 for the designs,and as munch as you want for tax.
the people that you work for give you money well i’ve always wanted to charge them so lets be takers and tell how we can charge you can start a shop of designed clothing and you can get a lot of money then you can pay for what you need because you get a good jod record.
What is reasonable is what they are willing to pay. What did you agree to?
If you are making costumes – then you probably want to charge by the piece.
If you are altering existing costumes, then you either want to charge an hourly rate, or a fixed fee based on the average time it takes to do the alteration.
One way to find out what is commonly charged, is to call a competitor and ask what they charge (of course don’t tell them why you want the information unless you have a colleague that is willing to share the information).
Good luck!
Well, How good are you at what you do? How much do you pay for fabric and designs ? How much labor and time do put into your work? My dad refinishes patio furniture and he charges 80 bucks an hour. So take the questions I asked you into consideration and try and come up with a price from there.
I would charge by piece. Before quoting a price, determine the cost of materials, and the amount of time you will spend making that costume. This will help you price your service appropriately, and people will know up-front how much they will be paying.
