I have a friend who enjoys working with gold and silver jewelry. She wears a demonstration set of jewelry and goes about her daily visits and business errands. By the end of the day she has either made a sale or has received an order or two from new customers.

Another friend of mine also wears her handmade jewelry and when people comment on it she tells them of when she will be having a personal showing of her jewelry line at a particular antique shop in town.

There are no limits as to how you can market your line of jewelry. If you are ready to get started making and selling jewelry stop and visit the home page of Tricia Deed at http://www.infotrish.vpweb.com/ and review "The A-Z Steps to Becoming a Jewelry Designer".
