Ok so this is my first bouquet... I will tweak it here and there, but overall I am pleased. What would you charge for this one? My realtor would like to know some prices for gifts for her other clients.. I was thinking $15-20 but I am notorious for underpricing. Thanks in Advance!

I agree -- looks good! Have you thought about checking on the internet and seeing what other companies charge for this? We ordered one (quite a few years ago now!!) and it was at least 45-60 dollars. It was for vendors/customers that we do work with.

One thing to remember to consider when you price is the cost of the container. I have seen them with only 5 or 6 cookies for $40 (including delivery) Just my opinion - but for a realator who may be buying a lot from you, it may be better to charge on the "low" side (while still covering your time and other costs) so that you get a lot of business...

Good luck!

I like to use the little clay pots. I get them at Hobby Lobby for 38 cents each. I just hot glue some styrofoam in them.

Congratulations--
I was going to say $20.00 if you get quite a few orders from her. My 4-cookie bouquets go for $25.00, 5-ccokie $30, 6-cookie $35 and 7-cookie is $40.00. HTH--Pam
