Question about designing jewelery? -

I just thought of this today and wondered if anyone knows the steps from drawing and designing jewelery pieces to selling the design/ jewelery ? In other words; If someone drew many blueprints for designs, how could they turn them into a profitable business? I tried checking Google but so far haven t found very much information. Thank you in advance for your answers.

I suggest you take a class in Jewelry Design, it will explain everything you need to know. Designing jewelry often includes actually making the piece, not just on paper. You may want to team up with an experienced jewelry maker and see if they need anyone to come up with designs that they can implement.

Hello there,Selling the jewelry is the more likely process. You would construct your own jewelry and market it. You can find craft shops that may show your line or you can sell it directly through an on-line website. Selling the design is a less likely process. You would have to go through a registration process to protect your designs before you could sell them. Such could be a costly process. You also face a difficult market. In most small jewelry making businesses, the craftsmen is making his own designs usually as an artistic expression of this ideas. Someone else s designs generally have little appeal to those craftsmen.There is a practical problem you face in this. If you do not understand how jewelry is constructed, your designs may not be useful. The problems relating to constructing the piece will have to be worked out by whoever makes the jewelry. Therefore, you designs have may have little market value.Making your own jewelry is not hard to learn. You can get a lot of enjoyment from seeing your ideas actually take shape. I used to tour, exhibiting at arts and crafts shows. The marketing, while it was my business, was an enjoyable part. I liked setting up at the shows. Talking with other artists. Getting the direct feedback from the customers. Feels pretty good when someone tells you how much they like a piece of jewelry that you designed and made.Later,
