Where can I find wholesale Fashion Jewelry?

Hi, can someone tell me where can I find kids and teens fashion jewelry at $0.50 0r $1.00 a dozen? also big ladies fashion jewelry all the latest styles.

Thank you!
I’m sorry I meant to say $0.50 or $1.00 each pice not a dozen.

Try Ebay. They have bulk from China and such that you might be able to get for the first prices you mentioned.

Best of luck.

How do I make earrings out of seashells?

I went to the Outer Banks last week and found some very pretty shells. I want to try to make some dangly earrings out of two of the shells, but I don’t know what the easiest way to do this is. Any suggestions?

I get fishhook type earrings, drill a hole in the base of the shell and put them on with a pliers. I found that brass fishing findings can make the earrings look cool. Raid someone’s tackle box! You can also add beads and wire and get really fancy!

Anyone know a site that teaches you how to make bracelets?

What books do you like for making your own beads?

I’m talking about lampwork glass beads. I have Making Glass Beads by Cindy Jenkins, which is very insperational, I also own Glass Beadmaking by Kervin. I’m wondering what you all think is a good book and why.

I’ve never tried lampwork. I’ve seen it on tv and it looks interesting, but I wouldn’t be able to do it in my little apartment. For book ideas, you could go to the library and check out some books. It doesn’t cost anything, and if you find something you like you could order the book from amazon.

How much are wedding and engagement rings suppose to cost?

I remember hearing some where that you’re suppose to spend at least 3 months of rent on and engagement ring, i think. Does anyone know how much you are suppose to spend on it?

that’s a ploy from retail stores to get you to spend more money!

There is no golden rule on how much you need to spend. It should be whatever you are comfortable with IN CASH…not credit cards or by taking out a loan. You don’t want to go into debt for a ring!!

I think the middle ground is around $1000, some people only spend a couple hundred, some spend 2k or more.

The thing to remember quality is better than quantity in the long run. You don’t want your diamond to lose value down the line.
