This post is part #2 of this week's series on making your own custom jewelry.

Sunday's post talked about where to get supplies for your own home custom made jewelry. Today, we are going to talk about what you can do with your own custom made jewelry, besides keeping it for yourself.

If you turn your custom made jewelry into a part-time hobby, you may find that you have an abundance of home-made pieces that you would like to find a new home for. So, what can you do with it?

Here are some ideas:

1) You can start selling your custom made jewelry on websites like Ebay or Etsy. There are tons of crafting websites that offer forums to sell in, but these two are the biggest places to sell on.

2) Host your own jewelry parties at your home or other people's homes. You can display your jewelry, offer some beverages and appetizers. Make it a fun get-together for your family and friends.

3) Pop in at local beauty shops and small businesses that you frequent. They may be willing to display a small basket of your jewelry on the counter of their shop. Don't forget to throw in a handful of business cards so that people know who you are if they want to order more jewelry from you.

4) Craft fairs in your local area are great places to go if you have a fairly large stock of jewelry that you have crafted. Remember, there is usually a table fee, so you have to sell enough to cover the table fee as well as make a profit.
