Okay so I was thinking that i could make some dolls and sell them for money and i would give some money to the cancer foundation. I dont know how much to keep from selling the dolls. I am handmaking the clothes and the dolls and the doll hair and I need paint yarn cloth for the dolls cloth for the outfits and stuff. All of what I need for about 5 dolls would maybe come to $10 so i was think sell the dolls for $10 each and so five dolls would be fifty dollars but i dont know how to figure out how much $ from the dolls to make more dolls i was thinking maybe 25-50% is this too much? Or is it too little? Or just right and if so which one? when I am done making the dolls I am giving the leftover money to the cancer foundation but I also need $ for the supplies…. can someone please help me out on this???

Since no one’s answered your question yet, you might want to check out this page at my site where there is a least some info on how to figure prices:

…look under the category called *Pricing & Legalities*

There are also some "craft business" message boards online that you could join and ask about things like this. There may be some of them listed on that page, or check out the regular Yahoogroups.
