How does pricing Work?
Base Price + Add-Ons + Customization Time
When you build your custom earpiece, the final price reflects the quality craftsmanship, materials, and time invested to make something truly unique. Here's a breakdown of how your total cost is calculated:
1. Base Price
The base price is the foundation of your custom ear and is determined by this formula:
My hourly wage × estimated time to sculpt and assemble the base ear + base materials cost
This price covers the core shape, size, and materials used for your chosen ear style. It ensures fair compensation for the work required to sculpt, shape, and finish the base design to perfection.
2. Add-Ons & Upgrades
Once you select your base style, you can customize it further with various add-ons such as:
• Charm Upgrades: Flatback gems, spikes, cones, chains, dangling charms
• Special Paints: Airbrush colors, UV/Neon paints, hand-painted details, marbling
• Piercings & Hardware: Industrial bars, beads, gauges
• Special Effects: Paint splatter, gloss textures, custom stencils
Each add-on has a set price or price range based on materials and labor intensity. You can choose multiple add-ons to truly personalize your piece.
3. Customization Labor Time
Some upgrades and custom requests take extra time beyond the base ear creation. Detailed hand-painting, complex charm placements, layered colors, or multiple hardware installations require additional labor hours. These hours are calculated into the final cost at my hourly rate to fairly compensate for the time and skill involved.
4. Material Costs for Add-Ons
Certain materials like Swarovski crystals, specialized chains, or premium pigments have additional costs. These are always included transparently in the add-on prices so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
Why This Pricing Structure?
Creating high-quality, handmade custom ears is a labor-intensive process that involves artistic skill, precision, and premium materials. This pricing model:
• Ensures fair pay for the time and expertise required
• Allows you to fully customize without surprise fees
• Makes complex custom work viable and sustainable
• Keeps materials and labor costs transparent and itemized
What to Expect in Your Final Price
• Base price for your chosen style and size
• Add-on costs multiplied by quantity (e.g., number of gems, length of chain)
• Additional hourly labor for detailed customization beyond the base
• Any special hardware or materials priced individually as needed
