I do! I charge a setting fee for the initial stone placement template based on how long it takes me to create the template and then charge basically $1 for 10 stones plus a charge for the stones (double cost). The program I use to make the template gives me a stone count. So for 144 stone design that took me 30 min to create would be: $30 setup (one time like digitizing) $15 design $10 stones (crystal Czech precision 10ss) Hope that helps.

I know that the designs are charged by the number of pieces, but I don't know what the norm is. I have the swavorski crystals and metals. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
