I'm so in love with this necklace! I'm really excited to be expanding my jewelry line. The response to the jewelry has been really good over the last couple of weeks. I understand it was Valentine's Day, and that has a lot to do with the jump in my jewelry sales, but I have had a couple of repeat customers and one of them requested a sideways cross. I am now working on that, but decided to add a traditional cross to the collection as well. For years I worked as a jewelry associate at Wal-Mart, and one of the things I would get requests for often was a "plain" cross. Many crosses are very ornate with lots of complicated decoration, and I think a lot of people want something more understated for everyday wear.
My husband helped me to find an exceptional Sterling Silver Supplier. They are called Halstead. http://www.halsteadbead.com/
Their website isn't very good, but their print catalog is amazing!!! I am really excited to have found a wholesaler that specializes in metals. I have been using Fire Mountain Gems for my pearls and gemstones:
They are great, but the gemstones, beads, and pearls are obviously their specialty. Having found Halstead, I feel very excited about expanding the styles of earrings I can offer, and I can finally expand my necklace collection, which I have been planning to do for a while. I'm getting really into this jewelry making stuff, and I think I would like to go to a trade school to learn other techniques. I am also considering opening an online storefront to sell jewelry exclusively, separate from my artwork site. The main reason is because Jewelry is fast becoming the bulk of what I carry at my etsy store and that shop was meant to sell a variety of my artwork. I would like to maintain variety in that shop. http://www.etsy.com/shop/emmaelizabethartwork?ref=si_shop
