NEW Products:
We now have several new earring drops in our Internet store.  These earring drops are a cast metal body for an earring.  To complete making an earring with these earrings drops you would need to add an ear wire finding at the top and several bead dangles at the bottom from the loops or holes in the drop.  You can view these products in greater detail in our Internet store.  Select any picture below to view the details on that product.

Jewelry Making Technique:
This weeks jewelry making technique is some information on making jewelry as a business.  Many of the jewelry making projects in our web site have what it takes to be good candidates for jewelry to sell.  What is required is projects that are quick to make, that don't require a lot of materials, and that people like enough to purchase at a price that will allow a profit.  Large, complex jewelry projects don't meet this criteria because they have too much time involved in their manufacture.  Please visit here or select the picture at right to view our thoughts on making jewelry as a business.  On this web page, we will also solicit your thoughts should you chose to share them with others.
