Usually I just come and read, but today I felt like posting!
You're always going to look around and find someone who does what you do - only better. Even if you're at the top of your game, it will happen. Or, maybe that's just my pessimistic view of life!
But part of being a good business woman is knowing your market and your clientele. If your clientele is in the $15 dollar range - stick with that. Unless it bugs you on a personal level - I don't feel like there is anything wrong with making jewelry that fits this price range. Like someone stated earlier - you could finish off a few pieces and charge more - but if they don't sell, you're just stuck with them. Then what?
I've always got the impression from you that you enjoyed what you did and were happy and content with it. I guess if you're not, you need to delve in more deeply and see what changes you could make to bring that contentedness back. But if you ARE happy with the way things are going - don't fix what ain't broke, eh?
