Before you start doing this, make sure that you have the skill and qualifications necessary to do this work because the last thing you want is destroy a client's beloved jewelry! Find out all you can about the piece and what special meaning, if any, it holds for the owner.


After all you don't want to lose money so once you've quoted a price, deduct 15 to 30 percent from it. After setting aside 15 to 30 percent, use the remainder as your budget to buy supplies to make the custom jewelry.

Supplies of pieces from wholesale sources will have to be purchased to make your custom jewelry. Making sure you are buying quality parts from unique sources overseas can cause you to spend more - so make sure you quote your client a price that is profitable to you, may people make this mistake.
