Really Expensive Jewelry
December 12th, 2009Christmas Trees Deserve Handcrafted Jewellery for Christmas Too
February 7th, 2010
When looking at a Christmas tree, it needs to be dressed up with accents just like people do. To make a good impression on your guests, start off by adding a handcrafted touch by using the standard classic white lights.
Now is when you turn your tree into a personalized piece of art. By stringing handcrafted glass beads on 10 continuous jewellery wires you can make a handmade garland to wrap around the tree, somewhat like a necklace with shimmering jewellery full of reds and greens when the Christmas lights hit them. The ends of the long colorful strings of jewellery wire need to be crimped off in order to make sure that the handcrafted beads don’t come off and break. By adding one strand at a time you make sure that the Christmas tree’s jewellery is on perfectly as well as giving you more control over exact placement.
Handcrafted red and clear glass beads can be strung on 15 inch lengths of wire and then connected with a clamp so it can be shaped into a star which gives the tree a handmade touch. Add regular glass balls to the handcrafted jewellery and they will remind a person of diamond earrings, a women’s favorite piece of jewellery. Silver glass balls generously painted with crafter’s glue and then rolled in clear seed glass beads until they are completely covered can be added next. The handmade jewels are nicely placed for everyone to see. You will then notice how well the handcrafted jewellery looks on such a beautiful tree.
Jewellery boxes were purchased at your local jewellery store can be wrapped in handcrafted wrapping paper that has been handmade for an additional touch. Handmade jewelry made out of green glass E-beads are randomly hung throughout the tree like a jewellery stores jewellery display case. The various sized handmade gift wrapped gifts can be placed under the tree while the guests begin arriving. The handcrafted paper will make them look as if they are pieces of jewellery in a jewellery box.
Along the fireplace mantle you can place handmade stockings that are made with handcrafted jewellery placed neatly on the front of each stocking hanging with care. Handmade gingerbread cookies with jewel buttons can be placed neatly on a plate for display.
Remember that a great end to your beautifully decorated holiday is a jewellery gift for everyone.

February 7th, 2010

A relaxed shopping would get things that are worthy enough with attractive accessories that suits the occasion.
Women tend to ‘sizzle’ with their fabulous dresses and accessories and wedding is an occasion where men get the chance to dress up well and get groomed. He extremely would wish to stand apart uniquely from the other guests. Men’s fashion is connected to the accessories they wear such as the ties, cummerbunds, waistcoats, button holes and most importantly the wedding cufflinks. Wedding Cufflinks are amazing masterpieces that adds more beauty to the attire. Most of the organizations comment that formal attire is incomplete without a pair of engraved cufflinks. They are available in larger collection and are limited to the sky. Hence, one need not get restricted to certain collections and limit the purchase. Lots of varieties with variation in styles, colors and designs are available and men are luckier in trying out these engravable cufflinks favorably.
However, sterling silver or striped or themed engraved cufflinks are awesome to be worn in the wedding and remember, it’s assured that all eyes of the guests would fall on the groom.

The cufflinks they wear speaks about the person and his characteristics and it is just worn to create an impression in the minds of the people that he cares for himself and wishes to present himself very good. The groom’s personality can also be adjudged by the cufflink he wears.
For example, the groom may be a great fan of soccer player or he himself can be a soccer player. In such a case, he would wish to wear a Soccer Ball Cufflink as this shows his unique personal style and making a bigger conversation piece for the reception as well. Similarly, if the groom is a chess lover or football lover or tennis lover for that matter, the groom can get the themed sports cufflinks relating to them as such types are available to expose their interests.

Fashion Basics: Look Good on Little
February 7th, 2010
Don’t read this article if you have unlimited funds right now and can buy anything you want to make yourself look good. But if you’re like lots of people these days, you need options because even though you’re down in the ditch money-wise, you don’t want to look like that in front of everyone, especially if you’re hustling to get or keep your job.
The first motto is this: get basic. Neutral basics form the core of a good wardrobe at any age. Now isn’t the time to get that dress you might only wear once or that have-to-have outfit bought on the fly that you wonder about later when the fashion statement of the season is past its season. The seasons pass, and soon that dress will be too short, the pants too wide, the jacket color impossible to wear with anything other than the skirt you used when you tried it on the first time. So let’s begin with those basics and see how your wardrobe will come alive, make you feel good, and not cost much.
First, what are the basics? Some folks don’t know. Most people don’t look good in all black, but with a collar, scarf, chunky piece of jewelry at the throat, lots of ladies look smashing. Have something black around, pants, skirt and dress, especially that little black dress you hear about needs to be a closet staple. Two scarves, that one chunky piece just discussed, and a string of fake pearls and you’re in business. You can look smart from a.m. to p.m. with just minor adjustments.
Try beige not white for that next neutral. White for most things soils quickly, is limiting seasonally, and actually exaggerates figure flaws. Choose white for blouses not for dresses, or pants. Several long-sleeved and short sleeved basic shirt blouses in white can be stand-outs for the same reason that black dress can be. The simple white blouse screams class, and those two scarves, chunky neck piece or simple string of fake pearls will make you look like a million, even over a pair of well-fitted jeans.
Back to beige: it’s not a good color without dressing up a bit, but it’s great basic in summer and spring for that little dress you can wear anywhere. Color accents from large earrings, bag and shoes with sizzle; and you’ll look like the high-priced spread.
Brown and navy form the rest of the neutrals you’ll always need. Color should be in jewelry and scarves with a bright blouse or jacket to bring out that pink in the cheeks and flash of eyes. Notice that those basics can be put together easily, and a few outfits you can organize in different combinations can allow you to get dressed in a hurry for work, get on a plane without struggle or get lost with your love in a moment.
Have fun, look good, but get back to basics. Women learned long ago that they could get lots of attention with simple statements. Now go speak softly in clothes that can make you look sensational that you can acquire easily and without spending much.

Should You Put Price Tags on Your Jewelry?
February 7th, 2010
Do you sell more jewelry by placing a visible price tag on each piece, or by leaving the price a mystery until the customer inquires about it?
Some jewelry artists prefer to leave prices off their jewelry, so customers will have to ask about pieces that interest them – thereby giving the jeweler the opening to establish a relationship with the customer and sell the piece.
Others feel that customers will assume jewelry without price tags must be too expensive, and that they’ll leave your booth without ever asking how much that beautiful bracelet costs.
When I’m shopping, I personally am one of the customers who are too shy to ask about the prices on items that don’t have visible price tags. Artists of all kinds of handcrafts have lost sales to me because I didn’t see any price tags and didn’t feel comfortable asking about their prices.
I put visible price tags on all my jewelry. I usually work my booth alone, and the more information I make accessible to my customers, the greater my chance of making sales to them.
Sometimes I’m in a swarm of customers who are asking questions and making purchases – and someone on the fringes wondering whether they can afford a particular pair of earrings wouldn’t bother to wait to find out while I’m closing other sales and packaging other customers’ jewelry.
But with visible pricing, customers know immediately whether they can afford the piece, so I won’t lose their business to another jewelry vendor if they’d like to purchase it.
Also, this way I don’t have to try to remember my prices for each piece! I’m not a numbers-oriented person, and I do best if I make the numbers-work as simple as possible for myself.
If you’re undecided on this issue, you may want to run a test at your next show by pricing half your items and leaving price tags off the other half. See which method seems to bring you the most sales!
What kind of price labels do you use?
For putting prices on all my jewelry, I buy the smallest-size removable stickers from local office supply stores. I write the prices on these stickers with a fine-point Sharpie marker, and stick them on a bottom corner of the front my jewelry hang tags and earring cards. Then when I sell a piece of jewelry, I can easily peel off the removable price sticker as I package the piece.
Or if I’m displaying a group of items that are all priced the same, I omit the individual stickers and put up a small sign in a picture frame stating something like “Gemstone Bead Earrings – $16″.
It’s best to use a form of price labeling that would be difficult for someone to remove and switch around when you’re not looking. Some jewelers prefer to use “sharkskin” tags (barbell-shaped stickers that fold around a bracelet or necklace with the large ends adhered together), while others print the pricing directly on their jewelry cards and hang tags.

A Cheap Engagement Ring Doesn’t Have To Look That Way
February 7th, 2010
Let’s face it. Not everyone can afford to pay out three entire months worth of paychecks for the purchase of an engagement ring. But, just because you need a cheap engagement ring to proclaim your commitment to your special someone, doesn’t mean you or the ring are “cheap.” You can find lots of high quality, beautiful rings that still fall in the inexpensive engagement ring.
While it’s true social matrons might expect that 3-month rule to apply, if your loved one respects you and understands your situation, it’s not likely she’s expecting a 5-carat diamond on a half-carat salary. With this in mind, it’s also very likely true that you don’t want a cheap engagement ring to look that way. If you want something spectacular but don’t want to pay full price, you’re in luck. There are things you can do to get an inexpensive engagement ring that’s worth a whole lot more.
Here are some ideas on where to look for an engagement ring that isn’t really “cheap” and certainly doesn’t look that way:
- Classified ads. The local newspaper and even online classified ads can net some great buys on rings that happen to be worth more than a person is willing to part with the ring for. Divorce sales, estate sales and so on can provide really good buys on cheap engagement rings. If shopping this way, however, do insist on appraisals to make sure the engagement ring you buy isn’t a fake. Many people do sell very good diamonds for less than they’re worth, but sometimes scams can happen. Be aware and you should be able to ensure your purchase is actually a good buy.
- Auctions. Online and face-to-face auctions can also offer up great buys on cheap engagement rings. The appraisal rule applies here, too, however. It can’t hurt to ask for an appraisal, and if the seller isn’t willing to submit paperwork, perhaps you might want to look in the next location.
- Jewelry stores. Many times the very best jewelers in town will discount their rings so that a cheap ring can be had while still offering a great size, stone and overall look. This is done oftentimes to make way for new merchandise and even to pull new customers into the stores. Whatever the case, don’t overlook professional jewelers.
- Your own family. Sometimes family members will have heirloom rings they’d like you to use for your married. In this case, the cheap ring will likely be anything but. The ring will carry with it not only a free price tag, but also a history that’s special.
Searching for cheap engagement rings doesn’t make you cheap. Few people can afford to follow the three-month rule, but that doesn’t mean they need to give their loved one a ring that’s less than appealing. Shop around, use common sense and don’t be willing to settle for less than what you really want her to have – within reason.
