Hva synes du generelt ser bedre ut på en kvinne, diamantøreringer eller perleøreringer?
Pearls are considered a very feminine jewel, and I can’t think of anything prettier than a pearl stud for daytime it brings a touch of light to the face. Det går med alt, doesn’t get in the way of a collar or hoodie.
For night diamonds are nice, so are other stones with sparkle. At one time sparkling stones weren’t considered proper for daytime other than engagement and wedding rings.
What happens if I can't take out my earrings?
If your earring is stuck, that's usually not a problem. Just make a cup of boiled water and mix in lots of salt, then wait for it to get to a comfortable temperature and soak a cotton ball in the solution. Hold the soaked cotton over the hole (both sides, use two balls if you need to) and just keep it there for five minutes or so. Then you should be able to gently turn the earring post in the hole and ease it out of the hole. Clean up the hole afterwards with another cotton ball with salt solution.
If it bleeds or weeps a little, I recommend putting in a pair of very simple gold or hypoallergenic studs immediately after rather than leaving the hole open. There is a chance it will heal over if you leave it open while it is a little raw. Spin the earring every hour or so to prevent it getting stuck again. You can leave the hole open again after a couple of days.
If it bleeds a lot (like more than just a spot on a tissue), hurts a LOT, exudes pus or is swollen, it might be infected. Go to the doctor.
Hvor villige er folk til å kjøpe hjemmelagde øredobber på nettet?
Veldig!
Det virkelige problemet er, how do you make sure that the people who are willing to buy handmade earrings online are finding your earrings before they buy other people's handmade earrings? Dette er et stort problem med kanaler som Etsy der det bokstavelig talt er titusenvis av mennesker som selger håndlagde smykker, fra det mest minimalistiske og moderne til det mest tweete og sære. To be certain that you'll sell a decent amount of your stuff on Etsy, det må være ting som er virkelig unike, so that it comes up relatively early in someone's search results. For eksempel, a search for 'salamander earrings' will have much fewer results than a search for 'cupcake earrings', som vil (tro meg) har tusenvis, hvorav topprangeringsresultatene vil være toppselgere. Customers aren't going to sift through more than 4 eller 5 sider med resultater før de velger noe eller gir opp.
Mindre håndlagde salgsportaler er derfor en tryggere innsats fordi det er mindre konkurranse. Enda bedre er det hvis du kan finne en online gavebutikk eller motebutikk som er villige til å selge smykkene dine på nettstedet deres. Deres nettsteder vil ha en kuratert, liten produktkatalog, så smykkene dine blir mer som en slikkepinne i en krukke med godteri i stedet for en dråpe i havet. Du må kanskje betale disse personene en provisjon for hvert salg, skjønt.
Generelt, I find that it's more profitable and effective to sell your jewellery in person at craft fairs, loppemarkeder etc. Smykker er i høy grad et impulsivt og overbærende kjøp, and if your product catches someone's eye they are likely to buy it; and it's more likely to catch someone's eye if they can see it 'in person' rather than as a tiny JPEG thumbnail on a website.
