I&amp;#39;m new to the area so-to-speak. This is a great site for every level of jewelry makers. Thank you for your advice on the subject. What I&amp;#39;d like to know is how to present myself and jewelry to merchants on consignment or otherwise. I do have a partner and we usually present together. We are looking to broaden our Funky S.a.K original hand made fine art jewelry business, and one way is to have our jewelry on display and for sell in various shops and boutiques ect. &amp;nbsp;I believe I want to know how we should dress and what should be the next thing after hello my name is so and so and......What? &amp;nbsp;I mean what should be our presentation? I&amp;#39;m long winded I know. But, any thoughts on this? Thank you.&lt;/p&gt;

Some things are those which we use on occasions and few are those which we use in causal days. &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot; &lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://www.pendantworld.net"&gt;http://www.pendantworld.net&lt;/a&gt; &amp;quot;&amp;gt;Gemstone Jewelry&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt; Jewelry is the one which we use in normal days as well as in occasions according to the theme of the party and within office premises. Normally jewelry is available in many jewelry stores and we are also in the list who offers you one of the leading and trendy jewelry in our e-business. Apart from occasions, we deal according to the designers&amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot; &lt;a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://www.pendantworld.net"&gt;http://www.pendantworld.net&lt;/a&gt; &amp;quot;&amp;gt;Birthstone Jewelry&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt; Birthstone Jewelry &amp;nbsp;which is available on our website. Also we offer gemstone jewelry which is also preferred by many customers which we have seen earlier.

I have only been making strech bracelets and earrings; clip and pierced. I have been giving them away and always hear that I should sell my work. I do have an eye for color and design. No sets are alike. I would love to sell my jewelry. How do I get started? It's great to know there are places like this to get help. Thanks for all advice.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.beadingdaily.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=31299" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>re: Advice on Naming Your Jewelry Business</title><link>http://www.beadingdaily.com/blogs/daily/archive/2008/10/13/advice-on-naming-your-jewelry-business.aspx#11504</link><pubDate>Mon, 13 Oct 2008 21:48:38 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">e599e337-6bb7-4670-8e80-180f614937ac:11504</guid><dc:creator>JenniferJ@43</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;I just finished my first big two-day show and have to say that I had Viki&amp;#39;s book right there in my bag. &amp;nbsp;I would highly recommend it for a down-to-earth take on the steps needed to create an identity and not get too caught up in the details. &amp;nbsp;The &amp;quot;business&amp;quot; side has taken more of my time, but because of the tips she shared, it has been much easier and a lot more fun.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;On the naming topic, I was sitting here on my couch with a man I&amp;#39;d been dating just a few weeks. &amp;nbsp;He&amp;#39;s a marketing type, though, and so we were discussing names for my blog that I wanted to start. &amp;nbsp;He asked me to start naming the things I love about my jewelry in a sort of brainstorming exercise. &amp;nbsp;I ended up jumping around the living room getting more and more excited about texture and color and shape and size and brightness and funky designs and just plain old happiness...it was almost like a counseling session when I said that I think my stuff &amp;quot;just rocks!!&amp;quot; and, so there it was... Jen Judd Rocks. &amp;nbsp;:) &amp;nbsp;It&amp;#39;s not just me and my superstar wannabe self, but it&amp;#39;s the rocks and baubles that I love!!! &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks for continuing the biz tips...they&amp;#39;re always helpful!!!!&lt;/p&gt;

If you use a false business name or a DOB, you might have to file a statement in a newspapaer, get a business license in that name, and perhaps complete other steps, such as a checking account. If you use your name, you can bypass many of these steps and see how things go. A flop? No big deal. A rip-roaring success...change the name. Bob in WA.&lt;/p&gt;
