Vinyl creation from this past weekend...

Post by sfandm »

I recovered and decked out my sister and BIL's new vehicle for Mud Bogs, they are HUGE participants. What do you think is a good price for this? I've already gotten three more orders.

Thanks for looking.

That looks really cool!
I think at least $20.00.

I do a lot of vinyl designs, both car decals and wall quotes, etc. I charge $15 for a 12" by 24" sheet, if that gives you an idea of pricing.

What kind of vinyl are you using? If you are using Oracal 751 it would need to be more because of the price of the vinyl.... That is cool - good job!

Take the price of your vinyl and the cost of labour.. I would be charging more than 20 bucks for that work.. My nephew does decals and just for letter decals he charges 4 bucks for each 6 bucks for each decal.. You do need to get the price of your vinyl back plus your time put into it.. Don't be afraid to charge....Wear and tear on your machine, electricity, time spent weeding it out...

Thanks everyone for all the comments. Just to clarify, I wrapped the dashboard and then made the alligator. Used Oracal 751 and Oracal 651 for the alligator. Took 2 hours to wrap the dash and another hour to piece the alligator. What do you think ballpark would be?

I wouldn't do it for less than $60...what are you wrapping the dashboard with? Vinyl? It's hard to do larger things with the cricut since you have to piece your projects and that takes more time than those of us who have commercial machines that can cut in one piece.


Nice Job, btw!
