Honest opinion time....

[Tallman]

Hi Folks,

First day and I'm already picking your brains....

I've been dabling with some amateur jewellery making and I'd appreciate your comments and thoughts on whether any of these pieces that I've made would be marketable/desirable and if so, what you think would be the best route to market?

Last few

[Wendy Moriarty]

I'm no expert but would be tempted to buy most of them, they are beautiful and look very well made, unusual but not too unusual I think. Love them all :-)

[Emerald]

The rings and bangles are fab i love em and also the last two pics, although the bangle could do with some neatening very saleable i would say, go for it have you thought of Etsy or folksy as a starting block

[FVT]

That's quite a hoard for a first posting! Looking good though, I'm sure you'll do well. Agree with Emerald about the cuff style bangle (the last pic you posted) needing neatening....although I love your twisted bangles and the other one from the first set of photos :-)

[Tallman]

Thanks Emerald. I completely agree on the bangle - it was a first attempt at working with this sort of thickness. As for Etsy and Folksy, I have looked at them, but can't quite see how to get your pieces noticed - the searching faciliies seem rather limited...

[Tallman]

Thanks loads Wendy - any feedback is useful, whether it be from an "expert" or not

Wow! I love pretty much everything there. I love the pink stones in the ring and earrings on your second post and the first necklace - the drop the the four stones. Lovely!

[hachiko]

Really nice jewellery, I like the designs....I'm not sure if the blue and pink stones go well together in the first piece though, personally, i'm not keen on the combination of those colours.
