I would like to sell jewelry online for free. Notice I’m a teenager therefore I do not have a credit card to sign up with paypal or anything like that. So what would be the best payment method for me, if I do find a site.
how will i advertise if i get my own website

I am currently rebuilding my website. i’d be happy to include your items in my online store. We would accept the orders and forward the orders and payments to you. If you email me I’ll give you more information. It won’t cost you anything to get set up with us, so don’t worry about that. As far as paypal, do you have a checking account? I could help you on getting set up with paypal also, as that is how we would forward your payments, but you do not need to have a credit card. Email me, we’ll talk more about it.

I,d say claires like the others said, they always seem to have what im looking for, x



I love making unique bracelets and stuff. Like a toothbrush bracelet? I made one the other day and had to go get more to make them for people.
And other ideas that would involve not a lot of money, maybe recycling, and no beads?

I would love to see the toothbrush bracelet.
I have seen bracelets made out of candy wrappers, those were really neat. Also the bottle tops from soda or beer in glass bottles.

Here are some instructions I found when I googled it.

Have an old pendant ,pretty thing.On the back is a label-Handcrafted by Nandor,Victoria.British Columbia.My mother got it 25 years ago on a visit.It looks like flowers under glass.It was a set of three pieces,necklace,ring and bracelet.Mother gave one each to my sisters,and I got the pendant.Does anyone know a site where I might find his work?Please not ebay.

Have you Googled him to see if there is any info.on him? I've never heard of him/her,



I am trying to get some form of demographic information before I re-vamp my web-site for my craft business. All of our items are 100% hand-crafted and we have had to slow down on our powwow traveling so I am trying to get more business via the internet. I am looking for retail and wholesale business as I am able to run the biz full-time while my husband is working.

So, without giving out too much personal information, could people please check out my site and then give me general age, gender, and rough income amount so I have a general idea of our pricing structure. Also give me any input or advice that you may have.

www.geocites.com/wigwamcrafts
I had a typo, the correct address is www.geocities.com/wigwamcrafts - sorry about that.

Also, the reason many have their prices high has to do with the fact most of the work is done one piece at a time, not through mass production. I hope this helps.
A comment was made in one of the answers regarding the IACA which I wish to respond to. Because I don't have a federally reconized card, I have a disclaimer on my site stating that our crafts are made in the style of our ancestors. I never said that these items are Native American made but I am a proud descendent. Also regarding where I live, I have a good friend who is full-blood Lakota who lives just over the TN/ Alabama border who went to school in Knoxville, TN. Because of his area of residence, is he supposed to not claim his heritage? Native American is more than just blood line, it is in the heart. Thank you for responding though.

Just went to your site and it's no longer there. Can you give me another link?

I do have one bit advice for you however and that would be to look for a cheap webhosting site as having your business on a free geocities site is unprofessional. Customers have to trust a business to send it money and if you are on a free site, they may think you are a fly by nighter.

I'm not trying to be rude as you are just starting out you proberly weren't aware of that. Good luck with your business.
