Jewelry Making for Fun and Profit

There is an old adage that says work isnt really work if you enjoy what youre doing. If one of your hobbies is jewelry making, why not turn this activity into a source of income? Youre already having fun anyway, and it wouldnt take a whole lot more to share your jewelry creations with people who would appreciate them and be more than happy to pay for them. With a bit of extra effort, time management and discipline, jewelry making is a great way to have fun and make a bit of extra money on the side.

Whether youre a novice about to enter the jewelry making field for the first time or whether youve been doing this for some time now, there are always several basic factors to consider. First, its important to have an adequate amount of space where you can work unbothered for a certain length of time each day and where you can store your jewelry making materials and tools. It doesnt have to be a large space, just a corner or room where you can concentrate on bringing your ideas to life and be free from undue distractions.

Second, if you havent already, decide on the kind of jewelry you are going to make. If youre just getting your feet wet in the jewelry making arena, start out with something simple. Think about what type of jewelry youd enjoy and feel comfortable wearing and go on from there. Whatever materials you might need are readily available either on the Internet or in a physical retail store. Then, as you become more adept at what youre doing, you can start exploring other, more complex jewelry making techniques. Remember, there is a plethora of information resources to help you make money from your hobby: books, specialty magazines, the Internet, and other jewelry makers.

After youve made a number of jewelry items, there are steps you can take to get other people interested in them. Be a walking advertisement for your jewelry making business. Wear some of your creations whenever you go out: wear them to work, when you go to the supermarket, or when you attend parties. Word of mouth is also a great way to let other people know about your jewelry making endeavor. Show some of your finished pieces to family and friends, and encourage them to spread the word.

The important thing to remember is that you continue to enjoy making jewelry and to take pride in your creations. Your love for jewelry making will be the key factor in maintaining your creativity level and it will help you come up with the designs that appreciative customers will buy. Never forget the fun factor in jewelry making, as this will be reflected in your work, and the profit factor will follow.
