Jewelry boxes by Stefan Marinov



I continue my virtual collection of the jewelry boxes. Isn't this an amazing box? I love carved wooden objects and always notice them, looking through the details... I have not seen anything like it before.






Do people buy jewelry online often? How much do they spend?

Monday, June 16, 2014

I've learned a bit since I had started selling jewelry online. I am still learning. It is not as simple as one might think... I am always happy when I come across any useful information on the subject. 

Once I've come across a few tables with the research results by Tatiana Nlivajko. There were no conclusions with the tables, so I asked if I could publish her tables with my own conclusions. She gave me permission. I will try to keep it sweet and short here :) 

Do people buy jewellery online?



Good news! (for me) More than 50% people buy jewellery online!

What is the age of people who buy jewellery online?



We jewellers suppose to consider the age of people who we make the product for. So, good to know, that if I want to increase my chances for my online sales, then I should make jewellery for women 30 to 39 y.o.

How much would they spend on jewellery per year? If we consider their income we might get information we are looking for...

...or maybe not... Does it really depend on income or on their wish how much they want to spend on jewellery?

I think this table gives me a better idea. Now I know that most people spend less than $200.00 per year. If I compare it to the previous table, I will learn that it does not depend on income how much buyers spend on jewellery per year!


Well, this is interesting! People answered that quality and uniqueness was a lot more important than price! Comparing it to the previous table this sounds funny. Price does not matter as long as it is less than $200.00!

According to this research I do everything right :) Lots of quality unique jewellery under $200.00 in my online store!

Friday Gift Guide

Friday, June 13, 2014

I love summer forest. We have a wonderful forest not far from where we live and go there a couple of times a week. It is a research forest, so grass is always cut and lots of open sunny space.It is important for us as we go with our son and he loves walking on grass, touching little wild flowers and tiny rocks on the passes.

This new Irina's Friday Gift Guide reminds me of our forest walks. Now I've realized why! That Oregon rainforest photo is almost exactly what I see in our forests! (That is not a surprise, Oregon is not that far from here after all :)

Ammolite gem for an Art Nouveau necklace

Thursday, June 12, 2014


One more Canadian ammolite from my gem collection. I bought all of them on Ebay. That was a hunt! I enjoyed every minute of it :)  It is a big stone for a big necklace. I hope to make more jewelry in Art Nouveau style in future. I have a nice small collection of ammolites... and probably continue working on the Art Nouveau designs for them.

All I want now is to get a glass of orange juice and have my breakfast outside, hoping that the sun will find its way through the high trees around my back porch...

Bead Day in the Magic Jewellery Box! I have found this fantastic mask in Etsy for Halloween. Just an awesome idea!

Metallic blue and metallic green

Friday, June 6, 2014

The set is built around my real insect earrings (beetle wings) with Swarovski crystals. The wings have amazing metallic green blue color, therefore other things I tried to find to match them. It is not easy to find metallic colors in affordable prices! Usually they are used by the big companies with the big names, that price their fashion creations accordingly to their big names :) 

Friday Gift Guide

I am always waiting for Irina's Friday Gift Guide rather impatiently.  She does such an amazing work putting them together!
