You're not marking your jewelry up enough. A necklace with a 20.00 focal plus other materials should be at least $60.00
For me...it depends on the beads and how much I'm in the mood to make jewelry. I only consign at one shop,all the rest of my jewelry is sold either on Etsy/AF or at shows. I definitely sell more beads though!
