High-End Handmade Jewellery Online

High-End Handmade Jewellery Online

If you are thinking of finding a way to make some money, you might want to think about selling High-end handmade jewellery online. It can be a great way to bring extra money into your home. You can also have a lot of fun doing it.

The first thing you want to do is decide if you want to do this part-time or full-time. If you are just doing it part-time, you will not have to put in as many hours. If you want to do it full-time it is going to take a lot more work and you will have to make sure you are putting in enough hours to make it profitable.

You then need to decide if you are going to make your own jewellery or if you are going to use a drop-shipper to sell someone else’s work. Either option will provide you with a solid income but there are differences. If you decide to make your own you have a lot more control over it but you also have a lot more work to do. If you decide to use someone else’s work it will be easier but might be a challenging finding the right person to order from.

Think about what talents you have and make your decision from there. If you are good at making high-end jewellery, then it is probably a good idea that you make your own. You can really get as creative as you want and play around with lots of ideas.

If you are not creative and more business-like, it would be better to find someone else to make them. You can find someone who already does that will offer the pieces at wholesale value, you can find a drop-shipper or you can even hire someone to work for you. Figure out what you think would be best for your own business.

Now that you have figured out where the pieces will come from you need to set up an online shop. You can do this on your own using WordPress or another similar site. You can also do this using a site like Etsy and sell your pieces there. It just depends on how much control you want over the site and how much money you want to spend.

Once you spend some time getting your site set up, you will need to start advertising. There are different ways that you can do this. You can pay for advertising or take advantage of social media and do it for free. Social media is a great way to get your name out there.

Spend time setting up social media accounts for your business. You want to be sure that you will be seen in different places around the internet. You need to get the word out about your new business.

Tell all of your family and friends about what you have started. Let them know of any discounts you might have and ask them to share your on their own social media accounts. Take advantage of what the internet has to offer as far as getting the word out about your business.

Keep in mind that anytime you run a business you will need to take it seriously. You will need to work hard and obey the law and you must pay your taxes too. It would be a good idea to meet with someone to find out exactly what you have to do.

Have fun with your new business and make it unique. That is the best way to stand out in the crowd. You want your jewellery to be the best there is for those shopping online.

The Advantages Of Purchasing Custom Made Jewellery

The Advantages Of Purchasing Custom Made Jewellery

 

If people are looking to buy jewellery they tend to go to chains or stores that offer mass-produced and ready-made jewellery simply because it’s a much easier process. All you need to do is select the piece that appeals to you, try it on and think about whether or not you really like it. If you do like it, you generally end up purchasing the piece. The real question is: is it a unique piece?

There are thousands of different types of ready-made jewellery available, but none of them will ever really be truly one-of-a-kind. Since they are mass produced, they will not have that personal touch that makes it uniquely yours and there will be many others wearing that same design or one that’s similar.

 

The only way you can have a truly unique piece is to go to a specialist jeweller to get a piece of custom-made jewellery. Generally this is quite a bit pricier than purchasing something ready-made. However, what you really need to consider is that a custom piece can last you a lifetime and you can pass it on to future generations. Instead of trying to find a ready-made piece that has some of your wants and needs in it, why not purchase a piece that is made entirely to your desires?

 

Another disadvantage that people face when shopping for ready-made jewellery is that there are simply not enough designs to choose from. Even though there are many types of off-the-shelf items of jewellery, they tend to look the same. In fact, most people that require larger ring sizes or longer bracelets will not find a piece that properly fits them from the items readily available. However, a custom piece may be pricier, but it can address all of your needs.

The most compelling reason to choose custom made jewellery over what is available in stores is that the piece will be designed with your creative ideas as well as unique specifications. The process allows you to have a say in the materials used, the size and the shape of the jewellery being made. Most manufacturing jewellers even allow you to make the request that your designs not be repeated for anyone else under any circumstances.

 

You can rest assured that when you order custom jewellery, you are getting a high quality piece with perfect attention to detail and special care in the craftsmanship. The process of designing a custom piece of jewellery usually involves designing the piece, casting, setting and using the latest technology for a perfect finish. Your piece can truly last a lifetime and even for generations to come because you aren’t getting a mass-manufactured low-quality piece, but one that was destined to be yours.

 

One of the most important things to keep in mind when selecting a jeweller to work with is that they listen to your wants and needs. They should keep in touch during every step of the way and allow you to tweak your designs as necessary. Fortunately, there are so many great companies that truly care about making you happy, so it shouldn’t be hard to find a company that’s great to work with.

 

Lastly, custom jewellery does cost quite a bit more than something mass-produced. This is what most people find as the biggest turnoff when considering whether or not they should purchase a custom piece. However, you need to consider that the amount of money you spend on several mass-produced pieces could be put towards purchasing one high quality piece that truly lasts a lifetime.

Choosing A Bespoke Jewellery Designer in Auckland

What To Look For When Choosing A Bespoke Jewellery Designer in Auckland

Jewellery is something very personal to a lot of people. Some women spend a lot time scouring stores and catalogues just to find the perfect piece. For those who really like something unique, they may have a hard time finding it because what they see in stores may be mass-produced. To get something that is truly one-of-a-kind and which fits all the criteria of the “perfect” piece of jewellery, you would have to have it custom-made for you. More and more women are turning to bespoke jewellery for this very reason. They have discovered that there is no better way to get exactly what they want.

The big question is, how would one go about choosing a bespoke jewellery designer? A lot of people design jewellery – here are some. How do you choose the right person for the job?

One good way is to look at the jewellery pieces that the designer has already produced. Every jewellery designers has their own signature style. By just looking at the style of a piece of jewellery, you can tell if it is the work of a designer that you might like. Look for one who has a style that impresses you, a style in which you would like your piece of jewellery to fashion after.

Going for a popular jewellery designer with a recognisable name will be on the costly side, but at least you know that you will be getting something with a signature style. The jewellery of famous designers may go up in value over time if the designer’s work is highly sought after. So, if the cost makes you hesitate, think of it as an investment.

If the price range is really out of your budget, you can look for talented, but lesser known designers who can design a piece for you at a lower cost. You would not be getting a famous designer name, but it would not break the bank either.

Once you have identified the potential designer of your jewellery, make an appointment to talk about the jewellery that you would like the designer to make. Talk about the occasion on which you will wear the jewellery. Describe the type of gemstones or precious metal that you would like to use. It is a good idea to find a jeweller who is also qualified to advice on diamonds and in gemology. Indicate the size that you need. The designer will make sketches of the piece that will incorporate all the features that you have specified, as you are describing it. As you see your design evolve, provide as much feedback as possible so the designer can modify the sketch until the design is exactly what you want.

After a design is chosen, there should be an agreement as to when the jewellery should be finished. If you need the jewellery by a certain date, be sure to clarify that from the start so there will be no misunderstanding of the expectations.

The bespoke jewellery designer can obtain the materials from their own favourite sources. However, if you have something like a special gemstone that you would like to incorporate into the design, show it to the designer. They can design something around it to make it part of the bespoke piece. Here are some examples of bespoke engagement rings from an Auckland designer, Orsini. You can see other products they offer from Italian jewellery designers.

Bespoke jewellery makes wonderful presents for that special someone. If you want something custom-made for a special person, but yet do not know what, the bespoke jewellery designer can help you come up with a design that the special person will love. Giving a piece of bespoke jewellery is one of the best ways to show someone that she is very special because of all of your thought that went into having it created.
