Amanda of Acey Jewelry shares this lovely and easy project for making decorated jewelry gift bags:

Decorated paper jewelry gift bags
by Amanda of Acey Jewelry

Amanda says:

This is a fast, cheap way to make creative and unique gift bags for your customers.

All you need are some small (4" x 5") Kraft paper bags (I chose natural colored), and some 3D scrapbook stickers.

Wal-mart had both supplies in the same aisle in the craft section. The bags were under $2 and the stickers under $3.

Arrange the stickers however you see fit, and it'll add interest (and value) to your pieces.

Also, whenever I sell a piece of jewelry, I wrap it in acid-free anti-tarnish tissue paper.

It's available at Thunderbird Supply, which also has the best deal on sterling silver wire that I've found so far.

Thanks so much for sharing this great jewelry gift bag project, Amanda!

I've discovered a jewelry display supplier that offers displays that are a little different than the "same old" ones most suppliers seem to stock.

Even better, this place seems to have fairly low prices too.

This supplier is Display Importer - and they have interesting jewelry packaging too:

A couple of months ago I ordered some velvet pouches and jewelry boxes from Display Importer.

I was very pleased with the quality of the items - and the speed at which they were shipped all the way across the country!
