Panic Free Pricing!



Well, as my last blog post stated, I started New Mercies Design a little over a year ago, with the hopes to perhaps make a little money on the side of homeschooling. Admittedly, I haven’t done a LOT, but it’s because I haven’t put a LOT of time into it since there are so many other things to do, and I have to prioritize. :) And that's ok... because I enjoy lettering, and as much as possible, I'd like to keep it that way. So I've got an Etsy shop and an Instagram account and word of mouth, which has gotten my most of my work, even though I'm not super busy with it (and like I said, that's ok for now).

So I want to share something that I just posted on Instagram, with a bunch of info on a new myteachable.com course, and right now I'm here to share it with you because it's fabulous.

Panic Free Pricing! For sale now, with special pricing! Read on...

Like I said, I have gotten to do a few things over the past year or so, and they’ve not only been fun, but they’ve been rewarding. I was often unsure what to charge, though! So when @thehappyevercrafter and @indetailcreative put together the Panic-Free Pricing book earlier this year, I took advantage of it immediately.

Now I’m honored to be an affiliate and want to share it with you because it’s helped me immensely. I'm still no expert, but I've got this course to keep learning how to price my items and I'll be able to do better as I build my business! They’ve just revamped it to make it an online course, so there are even more benefits to be had.



  • The pricing charts are easy to reference, and give you a great minimum starting point for quoting your own jobs.
  • It includes a 98-page reference guide, over 2 hours of video content, and access to a private FB group for extra help pricing your own jobs!



I lettered this logo for my daughter's Poshmark shop. I matched the colors to one of her favorite color schemes.
I made this for a friend who put the art on a mug and some cards, and she paid $20. (Should I have charged more?)

  • It is on sale from now until next Monday, the 4th, for $99 CAD (~$75 USD!), so grab it while it's on sale! After the 4th, the price will be $179 CAD (~$135). 
  • Once you’ve paid, it’s yours forever. You can go through it at your own pace, you can skip around, whatever you want! 



I made this for 4th of July, it still hangs in my family room. 


  • The link to purchase is below, and here’s a bonus for you: If you purchase using my link, I’ll letter your first name (or a first name of your choice) and send you a digital copy! After your purchase, simply send me an email (with a note saying hello!) and a copy of your receipt and let me know what name you’d like me to letter. I’ll send a digital file to you after a few days. 



I made this for my husband's parents' 50th anniversary.

I'm no expert on blog posts, so this is basically just a bunch of info with some photos interspersed here and there. But I am telling you, the course itself is totally worth the investment! 


I lettered this and then cut it out in vinyl with my Cricut to put on the window next to my front door. 



I've added some of my work to this post, just to give you an idea of what I do, but you can look at my Instagram accounts too, and see lots of work there. I have a couple accounts - my 'regular' account is @musicnazi, and my lettering/business account is @newmerciesdesign. I'd love to visit with you there!
