Still Wondering How to Sell Handmade Jewellery Online?
You can sell any handmade jewellery you are creating by hand - whether that's necklaces, bracelets, rings, earrings, brooches, or something else! Folksy welcomes all materials, from silver, gold, and gemstones to beads, resin, or upcycled pieces. Your jewellery can be simple or intricate, affordable or high-end - it’s all about your craftsmanship and creativity.
Whether you’re just starting out or an experienced maker, there’s a place for your jewellery on Folksy, and buyers love discovering pieces with personality and a story behind them. For the complete details, read our full handmade policy and if you're still unsure if your work is suitable? Get in touch with our support team.
Nope! You don’t need to be a registered business to start selling your handmade jewellery on Folksy. You can start small and sell casually, then decide later if you want to register as a business once you grow. Just make sure to keep track of your sales for tax purposes - our guides can help you stay on top of HMRC rules for makers.
Not at all! You can start with just a few pieces and grow your shop at your own pace. Many successful Folksy jewellery makers begin with a small collection and add new designs over time. Focus on showcasing your best work and telling the story behind each piece - buyers love quality and personality over quantity.
This is so hard to answer because every maker will price their work slightly differently. We recommend starting by adding up the cost of materials and the time you spend making each piece. Then think about the value of your skill and creativity - buyers are happy to pay for craftsmanship (this is the hard bit!).
It can help to check what similar handmade jewellery sells for online, and don’t be afraid to adjust your prices as you grow. On Folksy, you can experiment with a few pieces to find the sweet spot that works for you and your buyers.
- Use natural light to avoid harsh sunlight or indoor flashes.
- Choose a simple, matt background to make your jewellery stand out.
- Take multiple angles: front, back, side, and close-ups.
- Show scale and wear: include a model shot or hand-held photo so buyers can picture it.
- Keep it consistent: similar backgrounds and lighting help your shop look professional.
Tip: You don’t need fancy equipment - many makers start with a phone camera and experiment until their photos truly showcase their pieces.
