Jewelry

Designers and artists offer their finished masterpieces for sale. Many one of a kind and custom pieces are offered and will have all your friends wanting to know where you got it.

The jewelry category is by far our busiest category. Rather than expand to a fifth page, we conducted an audit of all of the listings. We removed the sites that have been discontinued and created two new categories - Artisan Jewelry and Beaded Jewelry. Don't miss all of the wonderful designs and jeweled creations that can be found in this section. There's something for every taste and budget.

All the website owners have included their favorite jewelry-making tips.

Please note: All websites listed here sell their own handcrafted jewelry - we do not accept listings from traditional jewelry stores unless they specialize in selling one of a kind, handmade items.

Jewelry Crafty Tip

When designing handmade jewelry, think 'outside-the-box'. Use everyday items around you for inspiration in your designs, don't just copy what everyone else is making/selling.



Beqi Clothing and Accessories
Good Jewelry for Bad Girls. I've been known to use a little bit of everything, from semiprecious stone beads and pendants to tiny plastic hot dogs. My style icons are much more likely to include drag queens, burlesque performers, and black and white movie darlings than anyone with the surname Hilton.

Jewelry Crafty Tip

1.Trader Joe's reusable grocery bags fit the average bead tray perfectly for portable use.

2.Never be afraid to dissemble a project you're not happy with and start over--that's the nice thing about beads, they aren't perishable.

3.Rings n' Things and Sky Blue Pink are two good wholesale jewelry findings websites if you have a vendor ID number.

4.Customers like to know what kind of stones their jewelry is made out of, so be sure to ask bead shop owners what the names are if they aren't marked.

5.If you like plastic charms, Sand Scripts is a good place to get a lot for relatively cheap.

Jewelry Crafty Tip

Jewelry Crafty Tip

If you need a really powerful magnifying glass, take the lens from an old 35mm camera, like a telephoto lens. It is compact enough to travel with you, sturdy and it is really powerful. I can't do without it for seed beading. Happy beading!

Jewelry Crafty Tip

If you need an inexpensive organizer for seed beads, an ice cube tray works well. The compartments are great for separating colors while working on a project.

Jewelry Crafty Tip

Create a lovely, personalized piece of jewelry by having the design incorporate a number that's significant to the person who will be wearing it. This number might be the person's birthdate, how many children they have, or their lucky number. You can represent numbers with beads, dangles, knots, metal-stamped numbers, collage with printed numbers, etc.
