Help.. Need opinions

I
am writing on here to just ask your opinions about my new task in hand.
At present I am a stay at home mum with x 3 kiddies but I wish to contribute to our family home some more finance to help relieve the day to day pressure from my husband.
I have begun making favours, centrepieces and accessories and gifts (some personalised) for all special occasions . I have tried to provide items that would suit all budgets as I know how costly these occasions can be.
Would you please let me know if these items are something that could be considered or am I barking up the wrong tree (as the saying goes).

the 50 x 50 box frame is Bespoke with their own choice of wording made with Genuine Swarovski gems and rhinestones painstakingly done 1 by 1. @ a cost of £95.00 (do you feel this is too much ?)

the 2 nd pic is
glass favour ribbons and gems with Large lace candle @ a cost of £1.60 each with a choice of any colour theme. again what do you think ?

the 3rd pic
glass favour with genuine Swarovski and Rhinestone gems @ a cost of £1.80 each once again with their own choice of colour. ?

Am i on the right track or do you feel people would deem these items as expensive or not appropriate~?

NOT TRYING TO PROMOTE THEM TO YOU ALL JUST WANT TO KNOW IF I SHOULD CONTINUE AS CAN BE VERY COSTLY AND NOT TOO SURE IF THEY LOOK PROFESSIONAL ENOUGH

Thanks in advance x

Firstly, well done for considering ways to earn.

  1. Sorry but SC or not, it doesn't look worth £95 worth to me. I'd consider cheaper materials personally, you'd have a wider market then. I would suggest only v good friends of the b & g would spend £95 and I think they'd want more to show for their money...
  1. I got married ago 10 yrs ago, so I might not be yr ideal target and I don't know what wedding 'fashions' are in or not. This looks attractive and the price is reasonable....but I looked at it and imagined red wine dribbling down the glass and onto cream ribbon.
  1. People take a glass home with them? Practically that could be tricky? It looks nice.

Maybe ask on the wedding section? Current brides-to-be will have a better idea of contemporary wedding favour fashions.

Sorry if that sounds harsh, just my thoughts.

Not sure tbh I think there are a lot of small businesses like this around at the moment.

However, one thing I can say is that the price of that picture is base ridiculous! I could get an oil painting for that.

Honestly, I wouldn't pay any more than a maximum of £25 for the pic

*plain not base Blush

Sorry if I've offended, just wanted to be straight
