are you going to had a jewelry business or not??
I guess you need to calculate the material cost before you start and find the cheapest dealer but have a good quality materials..


It is not our fault, its just our destiny that chose us to be..

What kind of jewelry do you want to make? I do some wire wrap of semi-precious stones and geodes. I also make bead and feather earrings. There is a lot of competition out there, especially on e-bay. If you want to actually make money at it instead of just being a hobby, you usually have to have a different style or a really cheap price (and really cheap doesn't go very well with quality work).

I started my own jewellery business very recently from home and now have a website. Granted, you're probably my competition but I'd love to help you.

As long as you enjoy making the jewellery, its always a good idea. There are plenty of places online that you can get good quality beads and materials from, for a good price.

I can hook you up with some great sites to buy from if you like, just PM me some time and I'll tell you the ones I go to.
