How to Find Boxes for Your Jewelry Wholesale

If you make your own jewelry or buy wholesale jewelry that is not in a box, you will need a source for jewelry boxes! Your customers will want their jewelry to arrive in nice display boxes that can be wrapped or presented to the person they bought the jewelry for.

Boxes for jewelry can be found at wholesale prices all over the internet. Simply do a search in any search engine for ‘boxes for jewelry’ and you will be surprised at the results. You can even have your business name or logo printed on the boxes as well, for an additional cost.

When you shop for boxes to package your jewelry wholesale in, make sure that you buy in bulk for the best prices. Also make sure that you can return the boxes for an exchange in the event that the boxes are the wrong size, or for a refund if the boxes arrive damaged.

Don’t make the mistake of not shipping your jewelry  wholesale to your customers in jewel boxes. This will make you appear to be unprofessional, or like a

Jewelry Wholesale – Diamonds

There may come a time in your jewelry making career when you need to select diamonds for a
special piece you are working on. Buying diamonds is much like buying any other gem – you find one
that is the right size or shape for the piece you are making and you purchase it. WRONG. Much more
thought and consideration must go into purchasing a diamond. After all – Diamonds are forever, and
you want your jewelry wholesale to last forever too.

There are four C’s when it comes to buying adiamond: cut, clarity, color, and carat weight. All of
these must be considered because you want thediamond used in your jewelry wholesale to be as
beautiful as possible. Remember that the diamondshould not overpower the entire piece, but it should
be the main attraction and compliment the rest ofthe piece as well.

The cut of the diamond does not refer to the shapeof it. It refers to the way that it was cut – the quality
of the cut. The shine and fluorescence of thediamond is determined by how it was cut. The
shape of the diamond is only a second factor – oran after thought – in terms of the quality of the cut.

The clarity of a diamond does not refer to how cleait is. Instead, it refers to how perfect or flawless –
or imperfect – a diamond is. There are internalimperfections and external imperfections. A
diamond that has no imperfections is flawless –and expensive.

Diamonds come in many colors. The most commonare white and yellow. Other colors are available, but
they are rare and expensive. The only color youshould never consider is a ‘blue white’ diamond. A
jeweler may try to tell you that this is a rare qualitydiamond, but it is in fact an inferior diamond, and
you have no use for it.

The carat weight of the diamond will be important toyour customer. Large diamonds should come with
a certificate. You should request this from thecompany that you are purchasing the diamond from.
If they refuse to give you a certificate from areputable grading company such as GIA, walk
away.

The chances are good that you will put more workand thought into purchasing diamonds for your
jewelry wholesale than in any other gem or stone.


Diamonds are by far the most popular gemstonesin the world – and with good reason. Not only are
they the most beautiful stones, but they are alsothe most durable stones on the face of the earth –
or under the earth for that matter!

How to Buy Jewelry Wholesale

Buying jewelry wholesale is really quite easy. The Internet gives you access to all of the wholesale jewelry companies you could ever need to make your selections, so you can buy exactly what you want or need – at very competitive prices.

There is a difference between online jewelry stores and online wholesale companies. Online jewelry stores sell jewelry at retail prices, even though the price may be slightly discounted. Wholesale companies sell jewelry at wholesale prices – which of course are cheaper than retail prices.

There are many sites where you can purchase directories of wholesale companies, but this really isn’t necessary. Just use a search engine like Google to find what you are looking for. If you are looking for an engagement ring at a wholesale price, for example, simply type ‘engagement ring wholesale’ into the search box – a whole slew of wholesalers who carry engagement rings will pop up in the search results.

Be aware that some wholesaler’s will only sell in bulk. Of course, if you just want to buy one engagement ring, you do not want to buy in bulk.But there are many companies that will sell just one item – you just have to look for them.

If buying online isn’t what you are interested in, consider joining a discount club, such as Sam’s. Here you will find jewelry at deeply discounted retail prices, which is the next best thing to jewelry wholesale prices – but again, the wholesale prices will be lower.

When dealing with an online wholesale company, you need to do several things. First, you want to be sure that you are buying the real thing. There are many companies out there that will advertise that their jewelry is ‘authentic.’ Read the sales copy very carefully, and educate yourself quickly. For instance, beware of words like ‘gold plated’ or ‘realistic.’ This is an indication that the jewelry isn’t gold, or that stones are fake.

Also find out if the company has a refund or exchange policy, as well as a 100% money back guarantee. This is important, and it will protect you if you find that you are not happy with the pieces you have purchased, or if they are of lesser quality than you expected.

Also consider using eBay to find jewelry wholesale prices. Again, use caution. Check the seller’s feedback and ratings, and make sure that you are dealing with a reputable person or company. If the jewelry is an important piece, use the escrow service that eBay recommends – even if you have to pay the escrow fees yourself!

How to Price Your Jewelry Wholesale

Pricing is an issue that many people in the jewelrybusiness often worry about. However, there is amethod that you can easily use, whether you urchase jewelry wholesale or make your ownjewelry. Pricing is very important. You don’t want to charge too much, because you won’t sell anything. On the other hand, you want to make sure that you charge enough to make a profit.

If you purchase your jewelry at wholesale prices, a markup of 15% to 30% is usual, and people will pay
these prices. In the grand scheme of things, apply the 30% markup, and make that the ‘regular’ price.
When you need to move merchandise hold a sale,and use the 15% markup price as the sale price.
If you make your own jewelry, determine the totalcost of the piece, including the cost of supplies,shipping, warehousing and packaging, then apply a15% markup. With the 15% markup, your jewelrywill be priced at the wholesale price. If you sell thejewelry to the general public yourself, as opposedto selling it to retailers, apply the retail price, whichin this case would be about 45% above your costs.

Importing Jewelry Wholesale

If you are considering importing jewelry wholesale, you might want to see what your other options are.

When jewelry is imported, there are additional costs, such as high shipping costs, that you may not be prepared to pay. There are also other issues to consider as well.

Customs is a major issue, because some materials that come from endangered animals are outlawed in the United States – ivory for example. When importing jewelry, you need to be sure that all of the materials that make up the jewelry can be legally imported.

The possibility of not getting what you paid for is another consideration that you must think about. If you order from someone outside of the United States – where the United States has no legal jurisdiction – there won’t be anything you can do if you are ripped off. If you are importing jewelry wholesale, make sure that you are dealing with a reputable company.

Usually, if you can find the same pieces of jewelry for sale in the United States, at a slightly higher cost, you will be better off making your purchase in the US. By the time you add shipping to the imported jewelry, it will probably cost more.

However, there are many pieces that can only be found in other countries.

Exporting Jewelry Wholesale

If you plan to export jewelry wholesale, you may need to find out if it is legal. First you must understand that sending just one piece of jewelry to another country is in fact ‘exporting goods.’ This is true even if the country is Mexico or Canada! No matter where it is going, if it is outside of the United States, or the country that you live in, it is


exporting.

You can find out if exporting certain pieces of jewelry is legal by calling the customs agency in your state, or by calling the United States Customs Office. Describe the jewelry and as well as the precious stones it  ntains, and tell them where it


is being sent. They will be able to tell you if shipping it is legal, and what problems may be encountered
at customs in the country it is being shipped to.Take shipping costs into consideration, and make sure that your customer pays for that! Shipping to other countries can be quite costly, and if you pay for that shipping, you probably won’t realize any profits on the jewelry wholesale that you are shipping out of the country!

How to Buy Jewelry Wholesale Online

Buying jewelry wholesale online is quite easy, and
most of the time, it is an enjoyable shopping
experience. In fact, many people prefer this method
of buying jewelry wholesale simply because they
find a much wider selection at much lower prices.
However, some of the buying public is still wary of
online businesses. If this sounds like you, there is
really no need for concern. Simply follow a few
simple guidelines to ensure that you have a safe
and satisfactory buying experience.

The first step is to be aware that there are indeed
many con artists operating on the Internet – and
they will happily take your money with absolutely
no regrets. It is your responsibility to take all of the
proper precautions to guard against this happening.
First, find the jewelry wholesale that you are
interested in buying. Make a note of where you
found it, but do not make a purchase just yet –
there is still much to be done. Take a look at other
online wholesaler’s sites and online jewelry stores
to see if you can find similar pieces. In most cases,
you can. Look at the price differences. While the
wholesale price should be lower than the retail price,
you should use extreme caution if the price seems
too low. Remember that old adage ‘if it sounds too
good to be true, it probably is.’

After you have found the lowest price, read every
detail you can find about the jewelry. Make sure
that it is exactly what you want, in terms of
authenticity. If you are unsure, don’t make the
purchase until you do know for sure. Don’t be afraid
to contact the company directly to ask questions –
but don’t take their word for it either.

Check with the Better Business Bureau Online, as
well as the BBB in the area where the company is
located. You are checking to see if there have been
any complaints about this business. If there have
been, that information will be made available to you
at no charge… and if there are complaints, you
should avoid doing business with the company.

Next, read the refund and exchange policy, as well
as the terms of service and the privacy policy at the
website. This is all important information – and if it
isn’t there, you don’t want to do business with this
company. However, just because the information is
there doesn’t necessarily mean that it is a
legitimate operation – read the information carefully,
and print it out so that you have a record of it.

Jewelry Wholesale and Estate Sales

Buying jewelry wholesale at estates sales is
actually quite easy. In fact, in most cases, this is
the easiest way to get very rare or old pieces at or
below jewelry wholesale prices! There is, however,
a method to the madness when it comes to walking
away with an heirloom piece at a rock bottom price!

Most people have estate sales when a person has
died. Unless the person was extremely wealthy, an
appraisal of all of the items that will be sold is not
done…and in most cases, the people holding the
sale are heirs that simply want to cash in. They
have no idea what the real value of what they are
selling is. Furthermore, these sales are often run
just like your average garage sale, with items
marked at incredibly low prices! You can literally
walk away with thousands of dollars of jewelry for
just a few dollars.

Even if the jewelry is not that valuable, the pieces
of the jewelry may be of some use to you when you
are constructing your own pieces. You can
carefully take the pieces that you buy at estate
sales apart, and save the reusable gems, chains,
settings, and other pieces. You can typically buy
these pieces far below jewelry wholesale prices!

How to Make Your Own Jewelry Wholesale

Making jewelry is not only fun, it is actually very
easy. It just takes a lot of creativity, and a little skill.
In fact, you could easily start your own jewelry
wholesale company by making jewelry yourself.

There are countless books available with
instructions and ideas for jewelry making. There are
also numerous websites where you can learn how
to make your own jewelry and get ideas. In the
beginning, you will probably want to follow a few
instructions or patterns until you get the feel for it –
but eventually, you should let your creativity shine
through and design your own jewelry.

You can easily purchase all of the supplies that you
need for making your own jewelry wholesale through
wholesale sources online. Buying in bulk will get
you the best prices. You can buy cheap gems, and
high quality gems as well. Everything that you
could possibly need can be located through a
wholesale resource on the Internet!

After you’ve made several unique pieces, you
should show them to friends, family members, and
colleagues. You will be surprised at how many of
these people want you to make pieces for them as
well! Just be sure to charge, and soon enough, you
will have your very own thriving jewelry wholesale
business – simply because you learned how to
make your own jewelry wholesale.

Jewelry Wholesale Repair

If you make jewelry wholesale, then you definitely
need to know how to make repairs to the jewelry
that you sale. If you can offer your clients free or
discounted repairs, you will find that you have
better customer relations. Also, you need to have
the ability to guarantee your pieces and offer free
repairs for a specified period of time after the sale.

This is just good business – and it will set you
apart from many of your competitors.
If you’ve made the jewelry, you probably already
know how to repair it. The repair that is needed is
probably the simple replacement of a piece on the
jewelry, such as a clasp or replacing a stone that
has come lose. This type of work can usually be
done quickly, and at very little expense.
If you don’t make the jewelry yourself, you still need
to offer free repairs for a specified period of time.
Again, this is just good business. In this case, you
need to learn some jewelry repair, and you need to
purchase some jewelry making or jewelry repair
tools. These tools are very small, and they were
specifically designed to make or repair jewelry. For
the most part, these tools are very inexpensive.

One piece of equipment that you will need is a
magnifying glass that stands on its own, allowing
you to use both of your hands. You also need very
good lighting that can be pointed directly onto the
jewelry that you are repairing. Both of these are
essential if you want to do a good job, and avoid
eye strain at the same time.

You will need some jewelry making supplies as
well, such as extra clasps, chains, and possibly
even gemstones. Of course, you don’t want to
keep too much of this on hand, as you may never
use any of it…so use your best judgment here.

Before you rush out and purchase a book or course
on jewelry making and repair, find out if the
company that you order the jewelry wholesale from
in the first place has any guarantees. If so, you
don’t need to learn anything. Simply have your
customer ship the jewelry back to you, or directly
to the company, and they should take care of the
repairs. However, follow up for your customer –
don’t leave the customer to deal with the wholesale
company on their own – that is bad business! If the
jewelry wholesale company doesn’t treat your
customer right, it will reflect on you!

Antique Jewelry Wholesale

Antique jewelry is typically very valuable, and purchasing such jewelry costs quite a bit of money.But then again, it is possible to buy antique jewelry wholesale as well – if you know where to look.Most people think that online auctions, such aseBay is the way to go. While this is trueoccasionally, you will usually find that the sellerknows the value of what they are selling, and theprice is quite high. There are other ways to findantique jewelry at wholesale prices – or below.Keep an eye on your newspaper for advertisedestate sales and garage sales. Typically, at thesesales, the people holding the sale really don’t knowthe value of what they have. You can literallypurchase hundreds or thousands of dollars worth of antique jewelry for just a few dollars on a typical
Saturday morning.
It is important that you not look too closely at thejewelry when you are buying it. If the piece isvaluable, you don’t want the seller to know howvaluable it is! It isn’t your fault that they didn’t get itappraised – as you will as soon as you leave! Keepa straight face, keep your happiness and joy toyourself, and pay the fifty cents or two bucks thatthey want for the piece, get in your car and head toa trusted jeweler for an appraisalIt is possible that the piece isn’t worth anything –but occasionally, you will stumble across some realfinds! Even if the piece isn’t worth anything, if youmake jewelry, you may be able to disassemble itfor the parts.
Finding antique jewelry wholesale is very exciting.In fact, spending those Saturday mornings at theyard sales and estate sales may even become addicting! Yard sales and estate sales – especially estate sales where grandchildren are not interestedin their grandma’s old ugly jewelry are the bestsources for antique jewelry at wholesale prices – orbelow wholesale prices.
This doesn’t mean that there aren’t some real findon eBay as well, so don’t discount it. Keep an eyeon the jewelry categories, as well as the antique orvintage categories. When you do find somethingyou want to bid on, make sure that the seller has agood reputation. If the piece is very expensive, usethe escrow service that is recommended by eBay.Also talk to the seller quite a bit to be sure that youunderstand exactly what is eing advertised!

How to Make A Jewelry Wholesale Catalog

So you want to sell your jewelry? Well, selling
jewelry wholesale is a big business, and you
definitely need a catalog of your offerings! Making
a catalog isn’t as difficult as you might think. First,
you have two options: an online catalog or a print
catalog. The choice is yours.

Overall, an online catalog is the least expensive
way to advertise your jewelry wholesale company –
but with all of the online jewelry stores and online
wholesalers, it may not be the most effective way
to make sales. A print catalog should strongly be
considered for a direct mailing.

If you make your own jewelry, you will need to get
good pictures of the jewelry – preferably laid on a
velvet setting. Black or blue velvet will bring out the
jewelry the most. You can take these pictures
yourself with a digital camera, or have a

professional take the photographs. It is cheaper to
do it yourself, of course.
Load the pictures up onto your computer, and use
publishing software, such as Microsoft Publisher to
design and layout your catalog. This may take a
little time and patience, but it is much cheaper than
having someone else do it.

Since you will need hundreds, if not thousands of
copies of your catalog, your best bet will be to save
the catalog on a CD and take it to a print shop that
can handle the job. This will cost money –
especially since the pages need to be glossy and
in color, and the catalog will need to be bound –
but this expense will be well worth it if you will be
doing a mass direct mailing.

In order to do a mass direct mailing, you simply
find a reputable company who either sells mailing
lists or does the mailing for you. You can actually
request lists of mailing addresses where the person
has expressed an interest in purchasing wholesale
jewelry – or any other criteria that you set. In most
cases, it is best to have the company handle the
mailing for you. They will get the best rates on the
mailing because they can use the bulk mail rate.

Make sure that you use a reputable printer, and a
reputable direct mail company! This is an investment
in the future of your business, and your jewelry
wholesale catalog needs to be perfect in every way –
and the mailing needs to go off without a hitch!

How to Buy Silver Jewelry Wholesale

Silver jewelry is not only beautiful, it is very much in
style these days. Silver jewelry compliments
anything you wear, and it is usually less expensive
than gold jewelry. There are many sources from
which you can buy silver jewelry wholesale, but the
Internet will offer you the biggest selection possible.
After all – you will have the whole world at your feet
– or fingertips.

As with any other jewelry, begin your search online.
There are countless jewelry wholesalers online, and
many of them specialize in silver jewelry. When you
buy your jewelry from jewelry wholesale sources,
you will pay a fraction of the cost that you would
pay at a retailer’s place of business, such as a
jewelry store.

When you purchase silver jewelry wholesale, make
sure that you are purchasing sterling silver jewelry.
Sterling silver is almost always marked with the
numbers ‘925.’ This is the highest quality of silver
that you can buy – wholesale or retail. Note that
there is no such thing as ‘high quality sterling
silver’ and ‘lower quality sterling silver.’ Sterling
silver comes in one quality – sterling silver. The
weight of the sterling silver used in the piece should
be the determining factor in the cost, unless the
item was hand-made, in which case it will cost
considerably more than similar pieces that were
not hand made.

Silver jewelry tarnishes – whether it is sterling silver
or not. You must clean and polish your silver
jewelry on a regular basis to help it keep its shine.
There are many different brands of silver polish on
the market that can be used to accomplish this.
You should plan to clean your silver jewelry on a
weekly basis.

Buying silver jewelry wholesale is the best way to
go. Silver is already relatively inexpensive – even at
wholesale prices. When purchasing such jewelry,
the silver or quality of the silver is not what you
need to concern yourself with – again, silver is
silver, just make sure it is sterling silver. The
settings and stones that are used in the piece
should be your concern.

You need to insure that the piece is solidly
constructed, and you need to make sure that the
gems used are not simulated gems – unless that is
what you want. Of course, when real gems are used,
such as diamonds, the cost of the jewelry will rise
considerably. But as long as you are buying jewelry
wholesale, the price will still be the lowest price you

Jewelry Wholesale and eBay Auctions

eBay is a great place to find almost any item that
you can imagine. Jewelry wholesale auctions are
quite common on eBay, and in many cases, you
cannot beat the deals that are offered here.
However, there are also many con artists that
operate through eBay, and you have to use caution.

Start by reading all of the fine details about the
jewelry wholesale lots that you are purchasing. If
you still have questions, send those questions to
the seller through eBay’s website. Make sure that
you keep all of your contact with the seller through
the website so that there is documentation.

Check out the person or company that is offering
the jewelry wholesale. Look at their ratings and their
feedback. Has there been any negative feedback?
If so, you may want to reconsider your options and
look into other auctions. If the feedback is all
positive, and the seller’s rating is high, doing
business with them should not be a problem.

Make sure that you are clear about shipment costs
and the shipment time frame, as well as the
payment options offered. Usually, the buyer is
responsible for the shipment costs, and this is
added to the total and paid before the item ships.
In the case of high ticket items, insurance may
be required on the item as well. The seller seldom
pays the shipping costs.

If the jewelry wholesale is a high ticket item, such
as jewelry that is bought in bulk or rare pieces of
expensive jewelry, you should strongly consider
using the escrow service that is recommended by
eBay. If the seller recommends any escrow service
other than the one that eBay recommends, you
might not want to do business with this seller – it
could be a scam.

Beware of sniper’s on eBay! Sniping is against the
rules at eBay, but a large group of people do it
anyway. Sniping is automatic bidding, which is not
against the rules, but the software or service is
instructed to place the highest bid in the last
possible minute of the auction – leaving no time for
anyone else to place a higher bid. Again, this is
against eBay’s rules.

Instead of sniping, place your first bid at the
maximum amount that you are willing to pay for
the jewelry wholesale lot. Each time the bid is
raised, your bid will automatically be raised – until
your limit is reached. This is not sniping, and it is
a perfectly legal way to bid on auctions at eBay.

Making Custom Jewelry Wholesale

If you have a great sense of style and creativity,
you should consider constructing quality custom
jewelry wholesale for individual clients. If you are
good at it, you will find that you have customers
calling you over and over again to construct special
pieces for them, or as gifts for others.

Making custom jewelry wholesale isn’t hard. Again,
you need a sense of style and creativity – but the
skills needed to make jewelry are very easy to
learn. The object is to make your pieces unique –
exclusive. When a client wears custom jewelry
that you designed and constructed, they should
wear it knowing that there is none other like it in
the whole world!

Working with clients is actually the hardest part.
You need to get a picture in your mind that
matches the picture that is in their minds. Never
construct the piece while they are watching – this
is in effect teaching them how to do it themselves,
and you will probably lose a customer. Never let
them know just how easy it is!

Talk at length with the client. This is the only way
that you can design custom jewelry that matches
their likes, dislikes, and personality. If the piece is
to be a gift for someone else, ask lots of questions
about that person, and if possible, meet them in
person yourself. Remember that uniqueness and
exclusivity are the key to making this type of
business successful – but great communication
with the clients is vitally important as well.

Many clients will want you to make custom jewelry
wholesale using stones or gems that they already
have. They may even want you to just enhance a
piece that they already have. Before you start doing
this, make sure that you have the skill and
qualifications necessary to do this work. You do
not want to destroy a client’s beloved jewelry! Make
sure that you ask about the history of the piece,
and find out what special meaning that piece holds
for your client as well.

Of course, you will purchase the pieces that you
need to make the custom jewelry from wholesale
resources. Just make sure that you are buying
quality parts – and look for sources for unique
jewelry making supplies as well – imported pieces
are great sources for uniqueness. You will have to
quote your client a price before you start, so be
careful here. You don’t want to lose money. Once
you’ve quoted a price, deduct 15% to 30% from it.
Think of the remainder as your ‘budget’ when
buying supplies to make the custom jewelry

How to Select Jewelry Wholesale Beads

When purchasing wholesale jewelry beads, you
must use care. You don’t want to end up with beads
that aren’t worth anything to you! Selecting beads
takes a lot of thought – we aren’t talking about
plastic beads that children use to make jewelry. We
are talking about quality beads used to make grown
up jewelry!

Avoid cheap plastic beads. This may be suitable for
some pieces, but it isn’t very durable – or very
pretty. Instead, buy glass beads or Lucite beads.
These are not only durable, they are very shiny and
pretty. They do not have the ‘cloudy’ look of plastic
beads.

Inspect the beads for imperfections if possible.
Beads that are ‘lopsided’ won’t do. Beads that are
chipped, broken, or scratched are useless. Don’t
purchase these beads no matter how cheap they
are!

Most jewelry wholesale beads are sold in bulk. In
this case, you probably won’t have the opportunity
to inspect the beads, so ask about the exchange
policy. Will you be able to exchange the beads that
are less than perfect? Depending on how the beads
are packaged and sold, and the policy of the
business selling the jewelry wholesale beads, this

Dealing with Jewelry Wholesale Dealers

Many people think that if they try to talk to a jewelry wholesale dealer that they will get better bargains. In the case of buying in bulk, they are absolutely right! Most jewelry wholesale dealers will offer you a lower price if you are buying inbulk – but if you are just buying one or two pieces,it really doesn’t pay for them to offer you pricesbelow the wholesale price.

Other than getting a good price, you want to make sure that you are getting quality jewelry. If you can deal with the jewelry wholesale dealer in person,you should. But in most situations, this will not be the case. Instead, contact the dealer by phoneand talk to them. Establish a relationship, and keep that relationship on good terms at all times.

As time goes by, you may be able to get even better deals from the wholesaler, and you can probably work out credit terms as well.

Just remember that your jewelry wholesale dealer is a human being, and treat them as such. If you ever find that your dealer isn’t being honest with you,or is selling low quality jewelry, look for a new

How to Sell Jewelry Wholesale

If you are a creative person, with a great sense of style and flair, you may be able to start your own business – making and selling jewelry wholesale.Because people are so very unique, they want jewelry pieces that are unique – one-of-a-kind pieces that nobody else in the world owns! This desire can make you quite a bit of money –simply start your very own jewelry wholesalecompany.

You can easily order wholesale supplies from hundreds of companies around the globe online – at really low prices. It is important to keep up with how much each part of each piece of jewelry costs you, and to get a total cost of each piece, including any expenses that you had for having supplies shipped to you. With the total cost figured, you can easily set your prices by adding 15% to the cost.

You can sell your pieces in a variety of ways. You can open your own online wholesale jewelry store,sell to local jewelry stores, rent booths at local flea markets and fairs, or advertise your jewelry making skills and take orders for unique pieces. You can also sell your pieces on consignment at boutiques.

You want to be known for your quality. Always select the highest quality gems and stones for your pieces, and make sure that the craftsmanship is outstanding. Become exclusive, and more people will want to purchase your pieces – and never make any two pieces alike.

However, you can also go the other route and make hundreds of identical pieces, as they are ordered.
You do this by making one very unique, high qualitypiece, and showing it to your local jewelry stores.
Ask them if they would like to order in bulk, then fill the order.

Another option is to do catalog sales. Make enough pieces to fill a small catalog, and take pictures of
each piece. Write a description for each piece and then put together your own catalog using software
and a good printer – or send the work to a print shop. You can send these catalogs out to a list
that you obtain from a direct mailing list company.


This type of business does require creativity and skill, but it also requires the ability to market
yourself and your jewelry. You need to havebusiness cards printed, and also have catalogs and
brochures printed as well to market your jewelry

Buy Jewelry Wholesale

at Jewelry Shows and Expos Jewelry shows and expos are great places to find jewelry wholesale. These shows and expos are held all over the world throughout the year, and no matter where you live, a show will eventually be held near you – probably within a days drive. In fact, if you live near a major city or a convention center, there will

probably be several shows throughout the year that you will be interested in when it comes to jewelry wholesale.

One of the great things about these shows and expos – aside from all of the gorgeous jewelry on display and the fabulous prices – is the information that is offered. These shows and expos often cover entire weekends, and related seminars and demonstrations are often included as well.

There is an entry fee for these shows and expos, in most cases, but it is typically quite affordable. A good way to find shows in your area is to visit http://aksshow.com/home.jsp Another way to find shows is to visit a search engine and type ‘jewelry shows your home town’ into the search box, where your home town is the town you live in, or a major

How to Clean Jewelry Wholesale

There are many different brands of jewelry cleaners on the market today. Depending on how your jewelry is made, these products may or may not be safe for your jewelry wholesale! Before using jewelry cleaner, take a good long look at the jewelry and try to determine what it is made of.

First, any jewelry that has pieces glued on should not be soaked in jewelry cleaner. Instead, use a
little Woolite mixed with water, and soak the piece for just a couple of minutes. Remove the piece from
the mixture and dry it immediately – but gently – with a soft cloth. Use a soft toothbrush to gently
scrub small crevices.

Avoid soaking pearls! They may come from the ocean – but water from your tap may damage them.
Simply wipe the pearl with a damp cloth, then use a polishing cloth to give it back its shine. Never
soak any of your jewelry overnight. It isn’t necessary, and it may harm the jewelry wholesale.

Again, it is important to know what gems are used in your jewelry, and how the piece was constructed
before determining how you will clean it.
