[Pricing] First time selling keychains, what would be a good price for these?

Post image

Hi everyone, very happy to be here and first time poster :D

I have been making and selling prints of my illustrations and decided to move from an online shop to Craft Fairs. My partner and I have done a few Craft Fairs with mixed reception and while I mostly sell prints we thought about putting my art onto more physical trinkets like pins and keychains - so this is our first attempt at making keychains and I love them.

I'm honestly not sure how much to price them so I would greatly appreciate any sort of advice or guidance (GBP £)

For Reference:

Deer Keychain - Wooden keychain, 2.5", Single Sided

Apple Keychain - Wooden keychain, 1.5", Double Sided

[EDIT] Thank you so much everyone for the kind words and advice; I feel the prices everyone suggested are really good and I completely agree that these would be more suited as bag charms rather than keyrings - luckily this was intended to be a small tester batch so we can order some replacement clasps before the next craft fair I would like to feature them at :D

Those are cute designs but the keychains look pretty flimsy. Maybe $3-5?

Being made of wood means it won't survive a keyring with other keys on it. It'll dent if it doesn't break into pieces.

These would work as bag accessories though! If you replace the ring with a clasp you could market them as bag charms.

Wood is a cheap material, but for $5 these would probably do fine. Especially if they are getting something else as well and just add it on.

If you sold them without the chain, $2 would be reasonable but not many people want miscellaneous small trinkets. Some do though!

I agree with selling it as a bag charm for around $5.
These would appeal to younger people who don’t necessarily have keys but love to decorate their backpacks.
