strawflowers

Just wondering if any of you have ever sold strawflowers? I have them on wire, so they are ready to use in either arrangements, or on wreaths. How much should I sell a bunch of 20 for? Any advise would be much appreciated, I am actually doing a farmers market tomorrow!!! I finally got my nerve up, (now that it's at the end of the season, ha) I have all my bouquets made, and thought I would take along some dried flowers to see how they do. Thanks for your help,
Cheryl

RE: strawflowers

Cheryl - I usually sell my bunches of 20 for between $3.50-$5.00...but, our area is "cheap"...and I don't have them on wires anymore...the first year I did it people didn't know what to do with them, so I just dry them upside down in sleeves now! I also sometimes sell bags of just the heads...can't bear to throw things away! Since yours are wired, you might try selling them "per stem" or so many for a certain price...that works on single stem things for me!
Good luck at your market...they're fun!
Wendy
