Win big with your jewelry showcase at fairs and bazaars.


An open-air market.


Looking forward to the day when we can again go out and enjoy the outdoors without worry? We feel the same way. The energy at arts and crafts fairs truly can’t be beaten and is something many creatives sorely missed in these past few months. While we may have to wait for a while for things to go back to normal, we thought it’s a great idea to share some of our tips to finding success at craft fairs with your jewelry display, and we hope this article will help you to be ready when the time comes.



Branding will help you stand out

Even before you set up your table and booth, it’s important to have this part of marketing your merchandise down pat. Starting from your name to your booth’s identifying colors, maintaining a consistent theme throughout will help you become a lot more memorable to your customers. Think of the vibe you would want your buyers to take away when they come to visit your booth and use that as a guide when crafting your brand. Once you’ve decided on one, use that consistently in the way you design your marketing collaterals (banner, flyers, calling cards, packaging) and the way you present your merchandise.



Keep it simple

You wouldn’t want to put too much on your table as it could make things look cluttered. Just highlight a few pieces from your merchandise using various jewelry display devices. Let’s say you want to focus on necklaces, what you can do is to use necklace display busts of varying heights to create interesting setups. 


Going back to our previous advice, your choice of displayers can be used for branding as well. Stands and platforms made out of wood and natural fabric are appropriate if you picked “eco-friendly” as your brand’s identifier. If your branding is “glam” go with metal and velvet-covered jewelry devices. 


As long as you have a theme in mind and you don’t overdo your table’s showcase then you’re good to go.



Replenish stocks throughout the day

We always advise our readers to bring enough merchandise to keep up with the demand. Likewise, this will come in handy once people start buying from you and there are empty spots left on the table. Remember though not to fill up the table too much to keep things neat and nice to look at.

Be personable

A good presentation doesn’t end with how you display your jewelry merchandise. It also extends to the way you present yourself to the public. You’re more likely to be visited by potential customers if you have a ready and sincere smile on your face. Charm always works so even if you feel tired, try your best not to show it or have someone take over the client-facing role while you recharge. Right from the beginning when a potential customer approaches your booth up to the last part where you hand them their purchase, never forget your manners and be ready to entertain questions they may have.



Good luck!


Our Jewelry Display Picks for Nature-Inspired Setups

Bring the great outdoors into your store with these ideas.

The great thing about retail display concepts is that you can turn them into whatever you fancy. As long as it is executed well and fits in with your store’s branding, there’s no reason why it won’t succeed. Be that as it may, nature-inspired setups remain a popular theme amongst retailers. As more people are now leaning towards living more environmentally-conscious lifestyles, more retailers are catching on to the trend by incorporating green concepts into their marketing efforts and jewelry entrepreneurs are no different.

In this article, let us show you some nature-inspired jewelry display ideas that you can try out.

Bring in found objects in nature as part of your display

Leaves and flowers can be used as props for your retail display concepts, but so are items like stones, shells (here’s a guide you can follow for ethical shell collecting), and the like. Previously, we’ve shared similar advice for dressing up your store for Halloween, but there’s no reason for you not to try out the same technique since upcoming holidays such as Valentine’s Day, Earth Day, and the summer season are also good times to incorporate nature into your displays.

Choose jewelry display tools that use natural fabric

If you’re going for a nature-inspired display, why not go for jewelry display devices that incorporate natural fabrics into their built like this hemp-covered necklace display stand shown here? Hemp is known as one of the most sustainable fabrics for its resistance to pests (farmers don’t have to spend a lot on chemical pesticides) and it even grows with very little water. As a fabric, it is also known for its toughness and longevity. Other options you can choose are jewelry display tools covered in burlap fiber and paper twine.

Go for stands and platforms made out of wood

Wood is a no-fail choice if you’re on a quest to create an eco-inspired display. Bring the forest vibes into your store by using not just wooden devices of all shapes and sizes, but also by incorporating greenery into your setups. Other than including found objects in nature in your displays, props like actual potted plants may also be added to complete the look.

Repurposing old items as props

You can’t talk about being a nature lover without talking about living a sustainable lifestyle, so let’s talk about sustainable design ideas. If you have a few old items that can still be used then why not make them a part of your setups? Old appliances like turntables or furniture can be used for vintage setups. Not only will this lessen the amount of trash you will be producing, but it will also save you money, and give your creative juices a workout by pushing you to come up with innovative ideas.

You can announce the promo online, like in your social media feeds or newsletter, as well as in-store to drum up interest for your promo.

Repurpose them for the upcoming holidays

The merrymaking still hasn’t ended even when December has passed as there are still celebrations to look forward to like Chinese New Year and Valentine’s Day. This is especially perfect for your jewelry items that come in red as the same holidays have that as a dominant color in their celebrations. You can also add in other new jewelry items to come up with displays to match the festivities. You can use necklace and earring display tools in silk that evoke a romantic feel or use wooden planks and stands and incorporate them in a Chinese-inspired display. Remember to add in props and matching lighting to complete your setups. 

Reconstruct them into new pieces

For the jewelry creators/entrepreneurs out there, this is an excellent way to earn and flex your skills at the same time. Have a look at your existing overstocks and see what you can refashion into something else. A little bit of melting and shaping can totally transform gold pieces into completely different pieces. Bits and parts of existing pieces like gemstone bracelets can be repurposed into necklaces, brooches, and other jewelry styles that are equally as beautiful.

Sell them at a lower price

People love a good bargain so you can be sure that you can attract folks who are in the mood for jewelry shopping. Again, promotions are crucial here to attract an audience so make sure you are tapping your marketing assets to advertising your event.
