Would I be able to sell my handmade rings on ebay for a profit?
They're handmade, beaded rings that I think look nice and have gotten many compliments from friends, who are surprised that they're handcrafted.
I'm trying to save money, but getting a part time job right now would be too much on my plate (junior year coming up)
Would I be able to make a profit by selling them on ebay? For example, do you think people would be interested in buying :/? Would I be able to send them via an envelope, and at what price would it cost to mail them?
thanks!
If you look here http://www.watchcount.com/?cc=US&uqsrc=plbm&uqkw=handmade%20rings&uqcat=#serp you can see that people do sell their handmade jewelry items. As long as what you make is of good quality, won't break easy, and looks great there would be people who want to buy what you sell. If I were to buy any kind of jewelry I would expect it to be shipped in something other than a plain envelope. I would expect it to be at least in one of those small envelopes that have bubble wrap in it.
If I were you, I would take a look at some of other sellers items, and see how they ship it and present their items in the listing.

How do you market handmade products?
Currently I make soy candles (absolutely delicious) and handmade beaded jewelry. I have developed a small following of dedicated clients through my job and I am interested in taking the next step into making my hobby a business. Any suggestions?
Look for local craft fairs or street fairs. These can be excellent events for selling unique, handmade products. You can call your local Chamber of Commerce to find out about events in your area.
Best wishes and good luck.
P.S. if you do these types of events, be sure to have business cards and flyers to handout for 'follow-up' sales.
