Huge update: New Kigurumi Pajama Price Sheet!
10 years ago
Making Kigurumi Pajama's my full-time job!
It’s been almost 2 years since I started to make custom Kigurumi Pajama’s and although I haven’t been able to completely focus on them all the time, I really like to be able to do that from now on! This will mean I will have to upgrade my prices and open slots more frequently, in able to make a living out of these.
If you like to read more information about this, be sure to read these journals:
* Future Plans
* Going full time as a Seamstress
I really like to be transparent about my choices and future plans, but it Is up to you if you like to skip all through this and just read the final prices! I will try to make it short as possible :O
Pricing info
TLDR: Just skip to the final price sheet!
Following information will tell how I decided on my prices. I have put allot of thought into these prices and I think they are more than fair to start with these.
First of all if this is going to be my income, I need to earn at least the minimum hour wage. On top of that I also have to include materials cost and taxes which I pay over my income every year!
I am not even talking about the Paypal fee, time spend on traveling, communicating, concept design and administration etc. And don't get me started on how expensive a sewing machine is :P
As always we have the base price, that will be the price where every custom kigurumi pajama starts. Taking the hour wage x amount of hours minimal needed + materials results in €225-250 for the base!
I like to believe I still have allot to learn and my kigus still need improvement. On top of that I think the new price will be a bit of a huge price jump. So in order to keep this realistic, I will start with a base price of €200 instead!
As always price goes up depending on complexity and I have been carefully thinking about these too. I've upgraded the price for extra tones, because they always take more time and more material cost.
I’ve changed the complexity cost from a fixed price to a variable price, where I determine the price based on how much extra work and extra cost it will need. In return I will no longer charge extra for fur lining! I will also give a special discount for rainbow designs!
Final price sheet
Base Price (2 tones) €200
Extra Tones +€25
Complexity +€20-€100 +
Rainbow 6x (8 total) +€100
Wings +€30-50
You can check my detailed price sheet here! If there is anything you like to know or if I forgot something, please let me know!
I hope this will give you the information you need for your future kigurumi pajama! ♥ I will soon make a follow up journal where I will tell a bit more about how I will handle future commission slots!

The idea is to open slots, but it won't be first come first serve this time. But for my slots in May I like to start with something simple, but not to worry! I will be opening new slots every month ♥
