Pricing Advice Needed!

Sep 09, 2011 10:34


So, I'm vending the Lakewood Renaissance Faireon the 17th & 18th.
I'm tweaking prices a little bit, and wanted some opinions.

My lotion candles have been going very well. The concept has been gaining in popularity; I saw two booths selling them at the NY Renaissance Faire this year-- for far more than I charge! Which got me thinking-- what would YOU pay for a lotion candle?

(A lotion candle is made from soy wax, with a very low burning temperature. Olive oil, vitamin E and such is added, as well as fragrance, and you can use the melted wax like lotion, as it is not very hot, just warm. You can also use it just as a regular candle.)

I do mine in 6 ounce tins, nicely labeled in a variety of body-safe scents (and unscented, too.)

At the NY Ren Faire, a 4 ounce lotion candle was $14.99, 12 ounce was $24.99, 20 ounce was $34.99. I'll just be sticking with 6 ounce. I want honest answers-- what YOU would pay for one.

Thanks in advance for any help!
