I know this may be an old post but I had to comment and let you know that I’m in the exact same situation. Not sure if I’d leave my people jewelry if they haven’t bought jewelry from me while im alive. Not being messy…..just saying. 🙂

Hi Claudia, just a few suggestions of what to do with your jewelry. How about donating them to women shelters or to an organization that help women return to work. Also, possibly sell them on sites like Etsy, or some other site. I hope my suggestions helped you or if you may even give them a thought. Have a great day!!

Pat ….. I hear ya ! I will soon be 66 years old, and I still love making jewelry. I have got a LOT of stock, but I have cut down my craft shows. It is difficult to do craft shows totally by myself. My husband is considerably older than I am, and he no longer helps me with shows anymore. My last “Open House Jewelry Show” at my house was great, though. Some people come to my house expecting that they will buy nothing at all. So …. they will buy a pair of earrings as a token of friendship, and because they are relatively cheaper than anything else. Now that I am “older” I am starting to think of …..
“What happens to all this jewelry with the price tags if I pass on”???? I have no children, no grandchildren, and no sisters. Just the other day I was thinking of putting in a will the names of all my girlfriends. They can all split my supply of finished jewelry.

Most of the necklaces I make are made with silver clay. They sell very well at shows but not as well online. The price point is higher and being silver, pictures just don’t show the beauty or shine.

Also local University team colors in earrings and necklaces. If you have a University nearby, women are always on the look out for Game Day jewelry. Surprised me with the amount I sell, even in December after football season.

I like to make earrings and necklace sets and quite often women want the necklace but not the earrings. So I ‘ll make necklaces with no earrings and quite often they’ll ask me if I have earrings to go with the necklace and I think ‘oh my goodness, I can’t win’.

Bracelets do well when I make them. The big thing that surprised me was that people don’t want to purchase sets. I like matching jewelry, so I make matching sets that sell individually and people don’t buy them as sets.

That’s so different from most of the other responses. Are your bracelets very different?

I wish I had enough sales to be able to make a reasonable calculation. I sure wish I knew how to put into practice all the selling tips and methods I’ve read about over the years. I would further ask if price point was the deciding factor? Or something else?

(I think I’m doomed. Most likely my work will sell after I die. Like Van Gogh. *sigh*)

What kind of pins? I never make any but curious what kind of pins sell nowadays.

I sell at a gift shop where tourists frequent and the manager requested pins. She said they sell well. I would not have made any otherwise so I appreciated her suggestion.

I added a basket of $5 earrings to my display and it draws people in as well as selling well. I also added a series of alcohol ink on copper earrings and they are selling very well.
