If your jewelry lines have an ultra-modern or high-tech feel, then romantic organza jewelry pouches probably aren't the right packaging for you. Instead, consider packaging with a futuristic feel, like this.

In contrast to ordinary cardboard jewelry boxes, metal jewelry boxes make a distinct statement about your pieces and the people who wear them.

Whatever your jewelry style, be sure your packaging appeals to your customers as much as your jewelry does.

Your unique packaging can become one of the "trademarks" of your business - an important element in establishing your jewelry brand.

This hanging earring display is a good one for outdoor shows, where even a slight breeze can knock over standing jewelry displays and send earring cards flying away.

To make this hanging earring display, you could use strips of felt or fleece fabric (neither of which require hemming) or even solid-colored neckties to hang your earrings on.

Then simply wrap the top end of each earring strip around the top pole of your art show tent, and fasten with no-sew Velcro tabs.

These hanging earring displays will surely catch the eye of shoppers wandering through the show.

They also put your jewelry right at customers' eye level while freeing up some of your table space for displaying more of your work.

You could easily store these fabric strips already loaded with earrings for an outdoor display that's super fast to set up and take down.

At some shows - particularly indoor shows or gallery events - you may wind up with an ultrasmall booth space. Here's one way to display the maximum amount of jewelry in a tiny footprint of space.

When you can't go horizontal - go vertical! Use an attractive, creative approach to maximizing the space you do have.

In a future post here I'll detail how to make a cheap jewelry display board like the one pictured here.

In the meantime, if you don't have enough space to spread your display outward - go upward instead, with racks, display boards, etc.!
