I made it a few months ago with fruit branches sold for hamsters, a cardboard roll from packing tape, beads, grape vine wreath and nest, wood, leather, and a loofa I cut up for the cockatiels toys. He seems to like it. Posted Image Posted Image Heh, forgot to close the closet door.. Posted Image |

No, but maybe if I find more baskets I will. Maybe earn some $ back from everything I buy the birds. Hubby might like that and if they don't sell, think of all the spoiling they'll get. nodding What do you think I should charge for something like this? I have no clue. :question: |

Well done Lily! Great toy!!!! I don't have any idea about pricing. I think you would have to figure how much it cost to make it and add a nice profit to it! |

That's an awesome toy! What a spoiled bird blue1 :lol: :lol: I've worked several retail jobs and usually the markup is 2 or 2.5 times the actual cost. Considering you also put in a lot of work to actually fashion these together, I think 2.5 is the lowest markup you should consider. :) |
