MAKING EARRING

Making jewellery makes you feel good, is profitable, and a lot of fun! You can work from home and choose the hours. Earrings are among the easiest pieces of jewellery to make for a beginner. Everyone loves an original pair. All you need are: Some say earrings are the most important piece of jewellery – because they’re the first to be noticed meeting a lady. They strand out and showcase a face, making an instant first impression. They should express the wearer’s personality.

Earrings are fashionable right now, and create a mood like no other jewellery. They’re also fun to design – think themes or individual designs that are different. Big and bold is today’s style.

Although they can be simple buttons fitted close to the ear, or large long dangles framing half the face. Expensive statement earrings grab attention, while lower-priced designs make great add-on purchases. Combine as sets with necklaces and bracelets to make more money.

Usually earrings are one-size-fits-all, so there is a lot of sales potential. If you don’t want to shape wire for individual designs, use ready made ear wires, hooks and other earring findings. For simple one-bead earrings you need half-drilled beads or pearls and head pins.

NORWICH BEAD FAIR REPORT

Norwich is always busy, and this one didn’t disappoint. The hall is small, but because visitors arrive at different time, everyone fitted in fine. The only complaint was that we have too big a choice – making it difficult to work out what not to buy! Although we can’t get to China yet – we’ve been ordering new beads online.

We’re back in Norwich Sunday 23rd October. If you live away, enjoy a weekend in the fine city – great for early Christmas shopping and exploring the Norfolk Broads and the coast. Premier Inn and Travel Lodge have some great out-of-season offers. Norwich has a wealth of culture, unusual in the UK outside London. The most complete medieval city in the country with a castle, two cathedrals, and cobbled streets.

NORTHERN BEAD FAIRS

After many shows in Southern England, we’re heading north! In August we’re at Newcastle, Berwick-Upon-Tweed and Harrogate. Then on Sunday 2nd October at Beads Up North, Haydock Racecourse (between Liverpool & Manchester). Plus we’ll be at Natwich (slightly north!) at Cheshire Beads Fair, Sunday 18th September.
