DIY Jewerly gift box inserts


A part of running small business is doing your own marketing and branding. I always improve my packaging and try to find the best way to presenting my products to the customer and spend less time on it. I used to use rubber stamp on card stock paper. It works in the past, but it's time consuming and inconsistency.

DIY measuring your ring size with simple office stationaries.

The most accurate way to determine your ring size is by using the ring gauge. However, not everybody has ring gauge at home, right? Here is the easiest way to do it with simple office supplies.
1) Things you need : ruler, strip of paper, scissor and pen or maker.


Brighten up Winter wardrobe

Winter is here. No doubt about it now. I'm in northern Vermont and I got snow almost every day since Christmas. I love snow. It could be so pretty but also it could drag you down. While the weather is not my best friend right now, I love to add some colorful items to my new jewelry line.

I came up with all the beautiful color of various gemstones. I already made the pearl version and I love it. Why not expending the line, right?

From top left : red Agate, blue Turquoise, Swarovski pearl and deep blue Lapis. They had a simple design but sure the conversation starter! I used wire wrapped technique to form a bezel around the bead. They come with sterling silver butterfly ear back. It's very safe for those who have a sensitive skin reaction (like me).
