Don't know if I missed part of this thread but if you carved that box
you should get at least a 30% markup on materials and your labor. If
that is your carving, and one of a kind then try the 3-400 dollar
range. For some if you don't charge enough they don't want it.

Kristen LOVES it!
I took a picture of her with it, but it came out poorly.
I'll get another one soon and post her ugly mug with the box.

Thanks to everyone for your words of encouragement, it really helped build
my confidence. I've already started on another one and had a young fella
offered to pay me to make one for him. He offered $50, I was thinking more
like $65 - $75.. what do ya'll think?
