Hi, I'm a bit lost as to what is the best approach to selling my handmade jewellery. I started selling mainly by word of mouth, and via my facebook page. Now also selling my work through a few galleries and via my website. But which is the best approach? I am finding the 'made to order' approach quite stressful to be honest, as already working three full days a week, along with family responsibilities (not much time when you have a 20month old little girl!!), I am finding I don't have much time! Then there is the sizing and pricing issues (which I am still struggling with arrggghhh!!). I love love love making jewellery, silversmithing, making bowls etc....and I love experimenting, being creative and making one off pieces......
But when it comes to re-creating these pieces for an order....arrgghhhhh!! So what do you think, is it better to only sell one off pieces, and not do made to order at all?
