new to the group and need some advice UPDATE W/PIC
my name is ashley. i am new to the group. i would like to know how many of you make jewelry and sell it? i will be making some to sell for the first time and would like to get some prices on what you all sell your jewelry and stuff for. i will post some pics of my stuff later. they are all just glass and plastic beads right now. and also some wood beds too. any kind of pricing ideas would be helpful. also some ideas for mens jewelry would be nice to. thank you in advance!
here is one pic. its a little girls ladybug necklace. my cam died before i could get pics of the others.
hi! welcome! I'm no help when it comes to jewelry info, but like PP said those three ladies should be able to help you!
Maybe check out storenvy, etsy, and some other places online to see what that type of jewlery goes for in your area.

HI ashley and welcome to the group!
I make jewelry and sell it :) My pricing is something not many would agree on. I price based on how much the materials were and also based on how much I personally would pay for a piece similar to that. There are many methods on how to price your things, and many different reasons for those methods. you just have to find what works for you and how much you paid for your supplies, whether or not you will charge for time making those items and a lot of other things. GOod luck! If you want to see my site, let me know and I can PM you a link or you can find me in the marketplace forum under Melli's Trinkets.
whats the link to your site? also do you know of any websites that i can get free patterns for jewelry and keychains and all that? i would like to print some out and get some good idea. i will post in a bit the jewelry i have made previously that im going to try to sell.

I will pm you my links
be careful with patterns and ideas. some may be protected and you cannot make your own to sell. some patterns may say at the bottom for personal use only.
cool can't wait to see pics!
