- Want to turn your handmade hobby into a highly profitable business? In this video, I’m going to share five steps for starting your online jewelry business and I’ll give you a free and powerful advertising strategy that I still use to this day to promote your products when you’re just starting out!
I’ve been selling my own handmade jewelry at tinyhandsonline.com for over fourteen years and it is such a dream that I’ve been able to turn my hobby into my career. While it has gotten a little crowded in the jewelry market since I first started, but in the US alone, the jewelry industry continues to generate about $70 billion dollars a year in sales. So if you follow the tips I’m going to share with you in this video, you can still carve out a pretty good slice of that pie for yourself.

I’m looking to take my hobby to the next level as a business so I really appreciate your videos.
That's awesome, Kari! I'm so glad they are helping!
Hello I like you business together jewelry in a.korean and any place
I started my business over the summer and I've been getting steady customers but they've mostly been friends and family who I'm so grateful for! I'm ready for the next step in my business and these were all really great tips.
That's great, Gabrielle! Sales from friends and family are also helpful for you to see how you want to prep and package orders. Good luck building your business in the coming year!
I want to start my own jewelry business and I find your videos very helpful! 🙏😊
I'm so glad, Tasnim! You can definitely do it!
Why does it sound like someone is talking in the background like subliminal messaging?
Is there a particular timestamp where you are hearing this, oonabot?
It’s throughout the whole video
I managed to tune it out but it was kinda freaking me out for a moment I didn’t know if my phone was picking up a radio signal or what!! Your video is still great and helpful!! Maybe you had a browser open playing news over and over or someone was watching something like a neighbor... which makes me want to ask where you got your mic!!! Lol or what camera are you using it just be a really good mic in the camera! Don’t worry though I don’t want to discourage you, your video is great very informative I am subscribing for more advice!
Were either of you listening with headphones?
Creative Hive I was not. Just listening on my TV. The background noise I’m hearing is also your voice so I wondered if it was an audio-type-echo-glitch. I tried turning up the volume to make out what was being said but then your audio was SOO loud it didn’t help me make out exactly what the words were, but it definitely sounded like your voice. I chalked it up to being a delayed echo recording of whatever you were saying, but on like a few second delay.
Mei, you are clearly an intelligent person and it was fun to learn from you. Wishing you continued success!
Thank you so much, Sera! I appreciate you watching!
I am just starting out trying to start my Handmade jewelry business, which was a hobby of mine. I keyed in How to start my handmade jewelry & your video came up! Which I'm so glad it did...Thank you for helping me to get started. Giving me some direction!
Welcome to the channel, Sandy! I'm glad you found me too, and I'm glad to hear the video was helpful!
This is the first time that I watch super clear sharing. Thank you so much.
I hope you found it helpful, Ivana! Thank you so much for watching.
Thank you Mei, your videos have been a big help for me. I started my business years ago but only decided to actully step up and focus on it last year. I didn't know anything about marketing or how to take proper pictures oh and pricing... that's always a challenge for me. However I'm always learning and growing and I'm so grateful for your help.
That's wonderful, Naiyla! I'm so glad the videos have been helpful to your business!
Been making jewelry for over 20 years and finally made the move to sell. Will be setting up Shopify very soon. Even took written notes.
That's awesome, Adrienne! Congratulations!

That's great! I'd love for you to check out my free Three Secrets workshop if you haven't already! www.creativehiveco.com/workshop/?
I thoroughly enjoyed this video with tips and tricks. I just placed my two- weeks with my 9-5 company and made several pieces of jewelry I was factoring on putting on Etsy, come start of next week... the idea of having Shopify is very intriguing now though. I also have a designer who reached out to pair my pieces with her clothing. Super stoked!
That is really amazing news, Hermanus! Congreatulations! Shopify is an amazing e-commerce website builder, and I would highly recommend it. You should definitely have your own site even when using Etsy.
Thank you, so much for your advice!😁👍 Now that i found out about your Jewel I’m gonna check it out!😁
Thank you so much, Angie!
Thanks for sharing this information. Now I feel better about open an online jewerly store.

This was so helpful, thank you so much!!
You're so welcome Belen!
Thank you! I just got a great idea!😊
That's awesome, Christine! I'm so happy to hear that!
Thank you mei. Ive had my etsy as a hobbyist for over 10 years. Took a sabbatical this year to refocus on it all and finding i really want to restart but remain a hobbyist.
That's so good that you know that of yourself, Esther! For many people their hobby becomes "work" and it loses the fun aspect of it. You can always take some of these tips that you find helpful without eventually scaling up. As long as you're enjoying creating, that's the most important thing.
Creative Hive i agree mei :) i was trying to find the video on finding influencers but i cant find it? Can you point me in the right direction?
Is it this one? czcams.com/video/S_85utVr5-M/video.html

Besides,I'm just telling the truth.
Those tiny scented food pieces are 😍😍😍
Thank you so much! I do love them so much! 💖
I'm so happy to have found ur video n u today! Thank u for sharing so many valuable tips n count on me to be a loyal subscriber
Aww. Thank you so much!! ❤️
Thank you so much for this video and all the info and ideas. I am really grateful and will check out your other videos. I am just about to start selling my jewellery pieces which range from one-of -a -kind pieces mainly using precious metals and gemstones and also more accessible Boho type designs as well as pieces that bridge the gap between these two types. I love your idea of reaching out to influencers as I have been making contact with people online in a category that is not about jewellery- but hey- they may well appreciate some little gifts! Best wishes. xx
You can definitely give it a try, Julie! Make sure you feel comfortable with the terms of the exchange and see what happens!
I have started my own business I wear my jewelry so I can get it out in the open
That's such a great idea!
Same here man
Thankyou for this helpful video..

I started a CZcams channel for my rabbit rescue and bunny care 4 years ago. As I am starting to implement techniques to take my handmade business seriously. I have found that so much of the techniques used in gaining subscribers & creating an audience for CZcams channel are the same techniques used in launching a successful website or handmade business
Thank you so much for sharing this Tiffany!! That's really great to know! ❤️
Great ideas and tips, thank you!

Thanks a lot. This was so helpful.
I'm so happy to hear this! Thank you for watching, Than!
I've had a jewelry design business (on and off) since 1983. I'm an old timer so I mostly have done art fairs and shown in galleries. At Chicago show a wardrobe stylist bought one of my necklaces and it was worn by an actor in an award winning movie. I have never ventured online- until now.......I'm going to try to give it a go. Since Covid none of my galleries are open and my income has dried up- all my shows were cancelled as well. The hard part is taking pics of everything- I probably have 2000 one of a kind pieces. But I will just take it slowly but surely. You are spot on with your advice. Thank-you so much for your educational vids. Back in 2014 I got fed up when the building that my art studio was located was sold. I had to move and I sold all my equipment!!!!!!! I sold rolling mill, bench shear, 9 torches, micro tools, my foredom,tumblers, drills, sanders, buffers, gems, stones, you name it. I could kick myself because right now Im replacing everything. UGGG
That sounds so frustrating, Cynthia! You've done this so long though, I bet you will be able to adapt your business and get back up and running in no time.
That was great. I think this methodology applies to any type of handmade product, not just jewellery. I’m very interested in the thought behind using Spotify so will learn up more on that. Thanks Mei. Great as always. Kuljeet
Glad it was helpful, Kuljeet. So much of handmade works together, even in different specific "industries".
Thank you for the great advice
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching, Tiana!
Thank you for the advice
No problem! Thank you so much for watching!
Loved your impartial advice l have made a lot of jewelry by hand for all sorts of people but not for the very classy one’s wish me luck let’s see where it takes me.
I DO wish you luck with that! It will be a very interesting adventure!
So creative and unique!!!😘😘
Thank you so much! ❤️

@@CreativeHiveCo Thank you!
Thankyou so much for posting this video :) I am currently doing a ton of online research on how I can build my handmade jewelry business and you are a true inspiration. Thankyou for your helpful tips! I am hoping to one day grow more and more. Did you ever do craft fairs? And if so where did you start? I'd love to hear your story!
I don't do craft shows anymore, but I did when I first started. I have a video about it! czcams.com/video/7KFGW2CxS8c/video.html
you have a nice accent that help biggner to indrestand your videos
Thank you so much for watching!
Great wisdom shared.
Thank you so much for watching, Lucille! ❤️
Hi! Thank you so much for this video!! The only thing I’m concerned about (not about the marketing aspect) is how would you go about sizing your bracelets? Would you just make it out of the stretchy thread or what? Sorry, I just stumbled upon this business idea only tonight, am considering it, and was wondering. Thanks!
You can make it out of stretchy thread if you want to, or you can do chain links and offer to size. You could make a bracelet like a bangle at a specific size and offer it as is, or you could make one as a sample and then offer custom sizing made to order. There's lots of options depending on what type of bracelet you're making.
Creative Hive Thank you!! 😃😃
I've been making and selling jewelry for 10 years on etsy. I do need to get off of there. At least make it a second source of income. I am not computer literate at all. I'll really have to learn to make my own website and that will take a very long time. I do agree with you though. It's hard to get seen if you don't start out of the gate fast. Wonderful advice. Thank you, Mei.
Piper, this blog post might be helpful to you: www.creativehiveco.com/how-to-build-your-own-website-with-shopify-in-under-1-hour/ Also, in my A Sale A Day course we work though the building of the website together. www.creativehiveco.com/a-sale-a-day-business/

Hi Mei, thank you for sharing your amazing videos! Loving it! I just wondering weather you have videos classes that you could share “how to DIY cute scented foods (miniatures)”. And what type of materials you use to make them? In into miniatures goods for dollhouse. Any sources? Thanks in advance!
No video classes specifically, but there are so many good resources here on CZcams! And I get my clay wholesale at creativewholesale.com.

I did! I love this community so much and I love to see what you all have to say. Thank you so much for being here! 💗
So clever
Thank you so much for watching, Kathy!! ❤️
Mae- another idea is home shows- in the past I've done really well with those- it's an excuse for a party! Anyway- I made up a brochure and handle like a Mary Kay lady. I actually listened to some of her tapes. And I let the potential party giver know that my prices are fair and reasonable, not like the 60 dollar candles- haha. I wear my jewelry out- everywhere- library, grocery store, bank- and people will say- oh I like that necklace and I whip out a brochure and say- want to win some free jewelry? And I also let them know it''s not expensive like other company's products. Some folks are uncomfortable with this- not ME- I'm not uncomfortable making moola. Some of these shows can bring in like 6-800 bucks- that may not seem like a lot but it's good for one night and Im not sitting out roasting at an art fair that cost me 300 bucks to do.
That's a fun idea, Cynthia! I've heard of people doing this and having a good time with it.
Thanks that's helpful
I'm so glad to hear that, Margarita! Thank you for watching.
Awesome video
Thanks for the visit! I'm going to be doing a live workshop here on Wednesday! If you're subscribed, hit the bell to be notified when it starts!
Thank you for making this informative video, it's really insightful. I am a Nigerian planning to start my jewellery business soon and still struggling on how to go about it, I have no knowledge on how to make handmade jewelry but is it okay to buy ready made jewelry for a start?
If you aren't making the jewelry then it's not a handmade business. You would be considered a reseller. You can definitely operate a business this way but you can't consider it a handmade business. It would be more like a gift shop or marketplace.
Do you have a video about adding scents to products?
I don't have one, BeAsA Roze, but you can search online to find tutorials for adding scents. The scents you choose are going to be a personal preference, too, so once you get a good technique you're going to want to play around a bit!
