For this exercise, I will create two new RFID-based products to help reduce expenses, increase profits, and create a competitive edge for our imaginary company, Advanced Amusement.
Advanced Amusement is an arcade and family entertainment center that houses video arcade and redemption games, a laser tag room, go carts, a restaurant, and birthday party facilities. The company employs 12 staff members per shift, and has operated profitably for over a decade. Six months ago, a movie theater with an in-house restaurant and arcade games was built down the street. It has put a significant dent in Advance's business as locals flock to the new facility for something new. Advanced reacted by adding mini-golf and a bumper boat pool, but lower margins and higher staff requirements on these attractions have forced Advanced to do something to reduce costs.
The owner, Bill Began, noticed that patrons often have to wait excessively to be let into rides as employees are having to overlook multiple attractions. For example, customers come in waves and any given attraction might be vacant for 10 minutes while patrons utilize ...

My journey through the halls of the lost but not forgotten. Abandoned buildings hold the secrets within history. Tales unfold as stories are told. Photography captures the visual of what once might have been.
Built in 1858 with good intentions through the Kirkbride Plan to treat the mentally ill humanly, the Trans-Allegheny Asylum was closed in 1994 due to many years of poor treatment and patient abuse.
Not knowing exactly what to expect, as I pulled up to the building the architecture was breathtaking.
The asylum, now a National Historic Landmark, was designed in the Gothic Revival and Tudor Revival styles. It is the largest hand cut stone build buildings in the US and the second largest in the world with only the Kremlin being slightly larger.
The clock tower was constructed in 1871 with three sides to tell time and the rear one left intentionally faceless.
As I entered the building the first room to the left held the history of Dorothea Lynde Dix 1802–87, educator and social reformer, pioneer in the movement for humane treatment of the mentally ill and insane. Her devotion led to widespread international reforms. Her inspiration along with Dr. Thomas Story Kirkbride's vision led to the construction of this building. With a belief that regardless of mental capacity, everyone should be treated as human beings Kirkbride came up with a plan. "moving patients to a rural environment with grounds that were "tastefully ornamented" and buildings arranged "en echelon" resembling a shallow V if viewed from above. This design called for long, rambling wings, that provided therapeutic sunlight and air to comfortable living quarters so that the building itself promoted a curative effect, or as Kirkbride put it, "a special apparatus for lunacy." These facilities were designed to be entirely self-sufficient providing the patients with a variety of outlets for stimulating mental and physical activities." http://www.trans-alleghenylunaticasylum.com/main/history3.html
from the balcony a view of the nurses station balcony and above
As the story unfolds sometimes the best laid plans are changed beyond anyone's control. Originally designed to house 250 souls it reached its peak in the 1950's with 2,400 patients in overcrowded and generally poor conditions. It was no longer just a place to house the mentally ill or "insane", it was now a place for any man to drop off a woman or children as he saw fit with reasons ranging from him no longer wanting to be married and wanting to start a new life to his perception of her being lazy or to him finding her reading a novel. If he deemed her "insane" then the children would also be considered insane. With this thought process it's no wonder conditions got out of control.
Ward C the most violent women's wing
Out of this wing came the most horrifying story of the buildings history. One of the patients was murdered by gruesome detail by two other patients because they were upset with his snoring as the story is told. His death started by hanging using this metal bar and bed sheets and continued from there.
This was quite the interesting plate at the outer corner of one of this doors in this wing.
Through this window men crawled along the edge to find their way to the nurses who worked there. Forbidden to have relationships with patients, the men always seemed to find a way.
Even through all the decay I can see the ornate beauty that was meant to be cared for.
moving from the main house to the farm and the Medical Building:
which also housed the hair salon and morgue next to the nurses break room designed to keep the nurses from taking too long of a break
Outside the back door of the Medical building is detailed architecture. Stone masons were hired from Germany and Ireland. The Irish masons built faces above the entrance to keep evil out. If evil were to enter, they believed it would enter through the back door,
A sight of what once was.
I was left with a sense of how one building could hold stories within stories, the positive and the negative, that was not singular to one building alone. Human rights are not something that should be debated. Sadly it is a subject that stretches far beyond this story.
With care and compassion we can change the way things are. If you have even the slightest way of making a difference, believe you can, no matter what doubts you may have. And no matter how difficult the task may be if you have a vision it should never stop you.

Getting published - mastering the process
<p>Completing the first draft of your manuscript – whether for a novel, short story, non-fiction book or magazine article – is a major achievement. Yet this is only the first step in a long journey to...
Completing the first draft of your manuscript – whether for a novel, short story, non-fiction book or magazine article – is a major achievement. Yet this is only the first step in a long journey to getting published. In this course you will learn the step-by-step process including market research, finding an agent, approaching publishing houses, and the pros and cons of self-publishing.
Your first draft is only the beginning. Now comes the rewriting, and yet more rewriting; then the synopsis, probably the hardest writing you will ever do; after that the introductory letters and the weeks of research to find the right publisher. Stepping out onto the path to be published is every bit as daunting as writing your book, short story or magazine article.
Like a lot of things, getting published is partly talent and partly luck, though knowing the steps required in the process definitely helps refine your luck. If you put time, effort and hard work into the process, your goal of being published can become a reality.
So what is the process? The first thing any writer must do is produce a high quality product. Your work has to touch all the bases: be succinctly and cogently written and free from obvious errors, be grammatically correct and properly punctuated and laid out to industry standard. If your manuscript isn't all these things, submitting it to a publisher is a waste of time.
In this workshop John Harman takes you step by step through the process of getting published, including analysing the option of self-publishing. He will cover:
- Assessing your manuscript for story-line and/or narrative structure
- Proofing for grammar; punctuation and Industry Standard Layout
- Doing your own market research
- Finding an Agent
- Approaching a Publishing House directly
- The query letter: what must it say?
- Writing the Synopsis
- Considering the market for your work
- Devising a chapter summary
- Deciding whether to self-publish: what are the factors to consider?
- The basic steps of self-publishing
- Self publishing your book as an eBook
This course will be held at The University Club of Western Australia.
Light lunch will be provided and included in the cost.

Police saw the Golf on Wanneroo Road, Tuart Hill, about 1.10am on September 18.
A chase through several northern suburbs ended when the vehicle hit a kerb at the Reid Highway-Mitchell Freeway intersection in Carine.

He was remanded in custody to reappear at Perth Children's Court on October 16.
His uncle was the passenger and was charged with stealing a motor vehicle and possessing methylamphetamine, before appearing in court last week.

Cornish Treacle Tart
Travesty, isn't it? Or, maybe it just shows how lacking my baking repertoire has been. Anyway, the recipe calls for an 8" pie pan, which is much smaller than mine; even this lovely tart pan is 10" diameter. So, I multiplied the recipe by 150%, and added the walnuts you find here, and am delighted with the result!
8" unbaked pie crust
3/4 cup golden syrup or 3/8 cup honey and 3/8 cup light corn syrup
1/4 cup fresh white bread crumbs
2 tsp lemon juice
2 tsp grated lemon rind
(optional) 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (my addition)
Stir together all of the filling ingredients in a large measuring cup. Scoop into the crust, top with pastry strips, arranged lattice-style, and bake at 400F for 30 to 35 minutes, or until golden brown.
Ryan said this was my first ever classic pie-looking pie, and he was proud. Tasty and easy; what could be better?

I've never had anything like this. In some ways, it reminds me of a pecan pie, but it ingredients are so unique! The breadcrumbs and the lemon in particular surprised me.

The Cole & Mason Tap Pepper Mill implements a four-prong fixture design that highlights a unique grip for grinding pepper. Comprised of a sturdy acrylic from top to bottom, this mill is ready to serve. Tap Pepper Mills feature a hardened carbon steel mechanism that does not crush peppercorns, but strips them to release the maximum amount of flavor with each turn. Turn the knob on top to set your favorite grind; unscrew the same knob to pull the top open for refills. Pair with the Cole & Mason Tap Salt Mill to complete the set!
Established in 1919, Cole & Mason's world-renowned salt and pepper mills remain wholly designed in England. With mill designs from traditional to modern, these innovative mills not only enhance your home and food with function and optimum flavor, but bring great style as well. Every kitchen and home deserves a mill that delivers the ultimate in seasoning time and time again.
Our "Best Pepper Grinder Ever" is here with the launch of the new Cole & Mason Precision+ Mechanism. With over two years in development, this new technology brings 100 years of expertise to the table. The entire mechanism has been redesigned from the ground up with the sole purpose of releasing even more flavor!
The cutting-edge design features larger flutes that allow more pepper corns to fall into the mechanism. An innovative arrangement of grinding teeth has also been added to deliver a more consistent grind. The result is a pepper grinder with greatly increased efficiency (more pepper delivered per turn), fewer blockages and, most importantly, unparalleled taste.
Working with Nottingham University's Aroma Laboratory in the UK, we were able to verify that the new pepper mills were in the leading group for flavor release at every grind size.
All of this combines to give us our "Best Pepper Grinder Ever" and reinforces the brand as the leaders in Salt & Pepper and seasoning in general. The mills are beautifully demonstrable - pick up any competitor brand and look at the difference in output from a few turns against our new product - there will be no competition in throughput and particulate consistency. More pepper from fewer turns and our new grinding mechanism is guaranteed for life!
Black and white peppercorns are recommended in our pepper mills. If you would like to use pink or red, use a mill with a ceramic mechanism or use our pestle & mortar.
We make it as easy as possible to ensure you get the lowest prices available:

Medieval Engineers is a sandbox game about engineering, construction and the maintenance of architectural works and mechanical equipment using medieval technology. Players build cities, castles and fortifications; construct mechanical devices and engines; perform landscaping and underground mining.
Medieval Engineers Deluxe Edition Update 02.005 Download
The game is inspired by real medieval technology and the way people built architectural works and mechanical equipment using medieval technology. Medieval Engineers strives to follow the laws of physics and history and doesn't use any technologies that were not available in the 5th to 15th centuries.
Medieval Engineers Deluxe Edition Update 02.005 Download
Medieval Engineers concentrates on construction aspects, but can be played as an action game too. We expect players to avoid engaging in direct man-to-man combat and instead use their creativity and engineering skills to build war machines and fortifications. Medieval Engineers shouldn't be about troops; it should be about the machinery you build.
Medieval Engineers is the second "engineering" game developed by Keen Software House. The first one is Space Engineers, which sold over 1 million copies in its first year and is still a bestseller.

About Lay Dee –
Despite the horrible deaths in my writing I'm a kind sole in reality. I literally wouldn't hurt a fly.
Questions –
As a little kid I always enjoyed escaping in books and wrote my own little stories (still cute at that time).
I always wanted to write books, but never had the "balls" to actually go ahead and do so, until last June.
Last June after we returned from our holiday I decided I wanted to write a book in my genre.
I have read and seen quite some crap lately in the Horror genre and a lot of copying story lines.
They change the monster and the scenery but the plot is still 5 teenagers, one monster in any way shape or form, they all get killed off in the same order and only one survives.
Knowing the full plot after reading the first chapter makes it a lot less fun to read the entire book.
Don't get me wrong, there are still some gems being written in the genre, but there's far too much of what I described above, so much so that even the movie "Cabin in the woods" had to make fun of it.
2. How long does it take for you to write one of your books?
Tough question. I only have written one book so far and it took me from the end of June till the end of July to write.
So that's a good month and some days, but after the writing the real work starts.
Spell checking, grammar checking, editing, fix plot holes, add things, delete things, get a cover etc.
I Finally published it in the last week of February this year.
So in conclusion, from the first word written till finished product was 8 months and some odd days.|
I'm contemplating starting on the next one in April during Camp NaNoWriMo.
3. How do you balance your work schedule when you're busy writing?
I have to balance my write schedule, my work schedule Is set to the same 40 hours every week.
Balancing the kids during the off hours, there lies the challenge.
Luckily I have a very loving, caring man by my side that believes in my writing and keeps them out of my hair if I'm writing.
4. What would you say is your interesting writing quirk?
Don't know if this is really a quirk, but I get lost in my writing.
If I'm writing, I'm actually there in the scene that I'm writing, I'm no longer sitting at my desk with my hands on my keyboard, I'm in the scene as a spectator writing down what's happening.
If you tend to bother me when I'm writing, you might end up in one of the chapters as one of the victims.
5. How do you come up with ideas for your books?
To be honest? I have no idea. I just start writing with a few key elements in mind and the story unravels itself as I'm writing it.
I think of the things I would like to see or read in a good horror story and try to write that down.
Other than that I found writing horror to be very therapeutic as well.
Perhaps this belongs under quirks but I use the names of people that I feel wronged me in my life in some way or another and make sure they end up dying a horrible painful bloody death.
I describe these persons perfectly, if they were to ever pick up a copy of my book, they would surely recognize themselves in the character with their name.
6. When did you write your first book?
This is my first book, started writing it end of June 2018 and published it end of February 2019.
7. What are your hobbies when you're not writing?
I have a full time (40 hrs a week) job.
I have 3 kids in the age 5, 7 and 19 on top of that I own 2 cats a Great Dane and a canary.
I have no room for any other hobbies, I love to read and write that's it.
8. What does your family and close friends think of your writing?
My 19 year old is traumatized and now has a phobia for lawn tractors. Other than that she loved my book, except chapter 9, that one is giving her nightmares as well.
My partner likes the book, except for the part where I introduced him with a spot on description and had him die horribly a few chapters later (He was warned, don't annoy me or I'll put you in there)
9. What was one of the most interesting things that you learned about yourself when you published your first book?
10. How many books have you written? Which one is your favorite?
I have only written this one, Population 3000 so that automatically is my favorite book, it also makes it my least favorite book.
Gonna start working on the second book in April.
11. What do you think makes a good story?
A good story line, one that keeps you wondering what will happen next. Keep your readers guessing and then surprise them with something they totally didn't see coming, and make it all come together in the end so they have this "aha, now it all makes sense" feeling. Don't leave any questions one might have unanswered, make sure you end this book and this story in the last chapter. Having an open end that could lead to a sequel is nice, but don't make it a cliffhanger, it's not a tv show.
12. Where do you like to kick back and write your books?

A Better company
We believe homeownership is valuable. Here's why: Not only has homeownership historically been one of the most reliable ways to build wealth, it also strengthens ties to community and contributes positively to overall well-being. The way the mortgage industry operates today makes it harder and harder for people to consider homeownership -- so we set out to change that. The traditional mortgage process is designed to confuse, riddled with unnecessary fees, takes too much time, and is built on a foundation of misaligned incentive structures. It's time Americans had a Better option.
A Better option is one that puts customers in control of the largest financial transaction of their lives. It's built with best-in-class technology, supported by non-commissioned staff, and offers affordable financing options that meet customers where they are.
Since 2016, we've already funded over $1B in loans, raised $75M in capital, and won the NerdWallet Best Online Mortgage Lender for Customer Service and we're just getting started.
Trying to modernize a decades old industry isn't easy, but it is supremely rewarding. Become part of a Better team.
A Better opportunity
Help us hack a thirteen trillion dollar industry by building a product that will allow more people than the status quo to own a home and build wealth rather than rent for life. Our tech team is small, and you will be a big part of defining the technical direction and culture. We encourage proposals for projects off the beaten path, experimentation with different frameworks and libraries, and doing as you see fit to solve problems.
We also offer above-market compensation and equity, as well as full benefits. Part-time remote is great with us, although we are looking for candidate who can spend some significant fraction of your time at our office in Soho, NYC.
Better people
- Open source authors of popular projects like Annoy and Holder
- Alumni of Spotify, Google, Founders Fund, and Microsoft
- A Head of Engineering who writes a fun blog
Better technology
- We ship code 50-100 times every day
- Node.js for the main app
- Python (3.6) and Scala for services
- Ember.js, Bootstrap, React, and SCSS on the frontend
- ES6 across the stack
- Postgres for the database
- Kubernetes, for deployment and devops
- AWS for infrastructure, leveraging EC2, S3, SWF, CloudFront, Route53, and much more
Better projects you could own
- Build a system to evaluate thousands of rules and do a combinatorial search to find out what's the best loan and how much can you afford
- Build a way to match borrowers to programs to calculate and surface eligible discounts to them
- Work on our Kubernetes cluster that helps us deploy 50-100 times/day with no downtime
- Improve our CI pipelines that run thousands of tests across hundreds of thousands of lines of code in a few minutes (with about 85% coverage)
- Build D3 widgets to guide consumers through the biggest purchase in their lives
- Integrate with email, text messages, and phone calls to unify all inbound/outbound communication and deliver real time updates to borrowers
- Experiment with tools to do OCR on documents

Transitions are tough. Whether you're going into your second year of high school, your first year of college, or even your fifth year of college, the transition from summer break to the fall semester is justifiably difficult.
Some people do have an easier time with adjusting than others, but I, on the other hand, am just awful at change. I like having all of my ducks in a row and knowing what step is coming next. However, when you're starting brand new classes with new classmates and new professors, you can't exactly align your ducks ahead of time.
Now, there are plenty of ways to prepare for the transition back into school that truly do make the adjustment period go by a bit more smoothly, but… I still get overly stressed about it.

Pomegranate Exfoliating Mask
Blurb: Antioxidant-rich mask restores, revitalizes and balances combination skin. Dissolves tired cells and frees skin's surface of trapped impurities. Softens, conditions and hydrates.
I got a sample of this (from Sephora) unintentionally. They were out of the sample I requested and substituted this Mask instead. Good thing for me – it's excellent!
It exfoliates, and it's a very gentle mask. I used part of the packet a few days ago, and was thrilled at how good it made my skin feel. It tingled slightly when I first applied it; and after I rinsed, my skin looked smoother, and it felt soft and fresh. It seems like you can get at least two uses out of each packet because I had plenty left over for tonight.
The Murad website is pretty huge, but definitely worth browsing. I suggest the What's New section. You can also look under General Concerns or fill out the What's Right for Me questionnaire to find other products. Murad is also available at Sephora, ULTA and beauty.com.
And since I'm nearly out of words for the day, check out how this hip 70's gal gets her point across without words. Enjoy!

As I write this column, Congress has teed up a final tax bill, which likely will have passed by the time you read this. Although we don't have a final vote yet, I would like to provide my thoughts on the most important provisions for farmers.
Reduction in tax rates. The bill retains the current seven brackets with lower rates in most brackets and a lower top rate of 37%, not the current 39.6%.
For net farm income, there is a special provision to provide an extra 20% deduction. In most cases, you simply take your bottom-line farm income, multiply it by 20% and this is your deduction. This reduces the top rate from 37% to 29.6%.
Once your income exceeds $315,000, certain limits begin to apply. At this point, the maximum deduction is equal to the greater of 50% of wages paid by your farm operation or 25% of wages plus 2.5% of original cost basis of depreciable farm assets that are less than 10 years old. (It's actually a little more complicated.)
For example, assume a farmer pays their employees $100,000 of wages and has $2 million of qualified farm assets. The limit on the deduction is the greater of $50,000 ($100,000 x 50%) or $75,000 ($100,000 x 25% plus $2 million x 2.5%). In this case, a farmer could have net farm income of $375,000 and not have a limit on the special 20% deduction.
This provision applies to all individuals plus trusts and estates. Many farm holdings are held in trust, so this a welcome addition. Also, some farmers might benefit from selling their crops through a cooperative.
These rate reductions are designed to sunset after 2025.
21% corporate tax rate. C corporations will now pay a flat 21% on taxable income. This is an increase for many farmers, because they currently only pay 15% on the first $50,000 of net income.
Section 179 and bonus depreciation. There is good news on both items. The bill bumps Section 179 to $1 million beginning in 2018. The bill increases bonus depreciation to 100% on all farm assets other than land, including used assets. This runs Sept. 28, 2017 to Dec. 31, 2022. After that, bonus depreciation phases down by 20% each year.
Section 1031 exchanges and business interest deduction. The bill eliminates tax-free exchanges for personal property such as farm equipment. The one area where this might hurt farmers is in states that do not allow bonus depreciation and that cap Section 179 at $25,000. In those situations, eliminating tax-free exchanges on personal property could increase state income tax bills, and the increase can be substantial.
If the farm's gross revenues are under $25 million, then all of your business interest remains deductible. If you are over that amount, the interest deduction may be limited to 30% of your adjusted earnings. Farmers are allowed to elect out of this provision and continue to deduct all interest even if their gross revenues are over the threshold amount. In return, they have to depreciate their assets over a longer period and will not be allowed to use bonus depreciation. They can, however, continue to take Section 179.
Estate taxes. The bill doubles the lifetime exemption amount to $10 million, adjusted for inflation ($11.2 million in 2018) for estates occurring between Jan. 1, 2018, and Dec. 31, 2025, and retains step-up in basis for inherited assets. This means most farm couples can be worth around $30 million or more and owe no federal estate taxes with minimal planning. Watch out for state estate taxes. A new administration could reduce it back to current levels before 2026.
Miscellaneous provisions. The 9% Section 199 DPAD deduction is eliminated in 2018. The extra 20% deduction for farm income essentially replaces it.
Conclusion. Many of our tax planning strategies over the last few years are likely to change, and I will update you in future columns.

People quickly fell in love with jewelry, and they tend to spend a lot on jewelry. So, if you are creative enough, selling jewelry online is a great way to start making money. In this online business startup guide, we will discuss everything from brainstorming ideas, finding suppliers, and building an online store to handling the marketing process to sell jewelry online. So, let's see how to sell jewelry online.
Selling jewelry is a competitive online business and it is hard to survive!
It is important to understand that the online jewelry business is really crowded and competitive. There are many established brands that people always look for when they want to buy jewelry online. So, how can a newcomer survive in this business? That is exactly what we are going to discuss in this guide.
There is no point in following a regular business strategy for such a competitive market. So, in this guide, we will show you what type of jewelry is the best to sell online, what are the best places to sell jewelry, and what is the best marketing strategy to follow. Let's have a look.
How to sell jewelry online – an overview
Selling jewelry online is one of the best online business ideas to start making money online. And, here is how you can start selling jewelry online.
- Select a niche for your online jewelry store
- Start making jewelry or start finding wholesale jewelry suppliers
- Set up an online jewelry store
- Launch an ideal marketing campaign to start selling jewelry
So, below we will discuss everything that you need to know when going through the above steps to start and run a successful online jewelry business. Let us start learning.
Select a niche to sell jewelry online
Why do we need a niche, or what is a niche in eCommerce? A niche product is a product that has a specific customer base. For example, fine jewelry is a niche. Fine jewelry is usually made of expensive materials, and there is a specific customer base for that product. And, costume jewelry is another niche. They are usually made of inexpensive materials such as beads and synthetic stone etc. So, anyone who is specifically looking for fine jewelry will not be interested in costume jewelry at the same time, and vice versa. Therefore, there is no point of promoting both of these types of jewlery to the same person.
Then, by having a niche store, you can start catering to a customer base with specific interests and needs. Then, you can simplify your store design and advertisements to resonate with the interests and needs of your target market. That's why it is so important to select the best niche when starting an eCommerce store.
So, what is the best niche to sell jewelry online? Let us see.
There are three types of jewelry to sell online
Fine jewelry – Fine jewelry is made with gems and precious (or semi-precious) metals. This type of jewelry is usually bought for special occasions, like weddings. Product qualities like the design, materials, and craftsmanship set you apart from the competitors. You need a unique brand identity to sell fine jewelry online.
Price range – $$$$
Costume jewelry – Costume or fashion jewelry are made with inexpensive materials (e.g., plastic, acrylic, beads, wires, plated metal, etc.). Costume jewelry is usually mass-produced and meant for everyday customers.
Price range – $
Mid-range jewelry – Mid-range jewelry are the products that are in between the fine and costume jewelry. They are made with inexpensive gems, metals, textiles, wood, acrylic, etc. Mid-range jewelry is usually meant for gift-giving customers. Rather than the cost of materials, the uniqueness of the design and craftsmanship are the main selling points for mid-range jewelry.
Price range – $$
When you start to sell jewelry online, it is better to choose one of the above three types as your product range. Then you can select your target customer (brides, young women, etc.) and build your marketing campaign around them.
Also, you can narrow down your target audience as much as you like. For example, if you wish to sell only the pendants under costume jewelry, you can do so. But, you must understand that when you narrow down your niche, while you can have a better chance to sell your jewelry online, your market size will get reduced too.
So, my advice is,
- If you sell low price jewelry, broaden your audience and sell more varieties.
- If you sell high price jewelry, narrow down your niche, and sell a focused product. (E.g. Diamond rings).
Start making jewelry or start finding wholesale jewelry suppliers
As we have discussed in the beginning, you have two basic options to find jewelry to sell online.
- You can make them (DIY, homemade or outsourced craftsmanship)
- You can re-sell the jewelry from wholesale suppliers
Designing and making your own jewelry to sell online
Jewelry making is an ideal business for hands-on creatives. Or, if you have a unique jewelry design idea, you can find a skilled crafts-person to make your idea a reality. In this section, we will discuss how to find design inspirations and where to learn jewelry making. Anyway, we are not going to talk in detail about jewelry making. You will find tons of valuable courses and free classes from the links that I have posted below.
How to find jewelry design inspirations
- Pinterest is the best place to find beautiful jewelry design inspirations. For example, Etsy jewelry is a popular board for jewelry designs.
- Other than Pinterest, you can also Google for popular jewelry sellers and explore their product catalogs to find inspirations.
- You can also visit some popular blogs about jewelry to find new design trends. For example, Gem gossip and The jewelry loupe are two such popular blogs about jewelry.
- Finally, as usual, you can check Amazon best-selling jewelry lists to see what is trending in the market as well.
Where to learn jewelry making
There are several free and paid resources to learn jewelry making. If you are planning to take up jewelry making as a business, it is better to take things seriously and learn from a pro. Here I have listed some popular resources to learn jewelry making.
- Howcast – How to make jewelry
- Jewelry making classes on Blueprint
- Free online courses from Beaducation
- Jewelry design schools in the US
Where to find raw material to make jewelry
Here I have listed down some popular marketplaces to buy jewelry supplies. You can find raw material and tools from these suppliers. Also, if you like to get a jump-start with your business idea, you can simply order a jewelry making kit from Amazon as well. Those kits have everything that you need to start making jewelry. Below I have added a recommended kit (based on positive customer reviews on Amazon). Have a look.
Click on the below image to check the price and what is included with this jewelry making kit.
- Jewelry supplies from Alibaba
- Beads, jewelry making and props from Aliexpress
- Gemstones and beads from Firemountaingems
- Sterling silver and other raw material from Wholesalejewelrysupply
- Gems from Gemselect
- Suppliers from Tucson Gem and Jewelry show
Re-selling jewelry from wholesale suppliers
If you don't have any design ideas or time to spend making jewelry, you can simply re-sell jewelry from wholesale suppliers. In this way, you can start to sell jewelry online as a side business.
Using dropshipping as the order fulfillment method
Dropshipping is an online retail fulfillment method. That means you don't have to "pre-purchase" jewelry to sell online. If you use dropshipping, you can list the products from your supplier on your online store; Once you get an order, you can forward that order to your supplier, who will pack and deliver the product directly to your customer.
Dropshipping is a low-risk e-commerce business module. If you like to learn more about dropshipping, check how to start dropshipping – the best startup guide
How to find wholesale jewelry suppliers
There are several popular wholesale suppliers for jewelry. I have created a dropshipping supplier directory in a separate post. So, I can keep that updated every year. If you are looking for wholesale suppliers or dropshipping suppliers for jewelry, please read How to find dropshipping suppliers + supplier directory.
Don't sell counterfeit jewelry online
This is an extremely vital thing to remember. When you search for jewelry suppliers to sell online, you will come across a large number of "look-alike" products for famous brands. Almost all of these counterfeit jewelry are made with low-quality material. After just a couple of months, these fake jewelry will start fading or breaking. Then the customers will spread bad reviews about your online jewelry business, avoiding your chances of making any future sales. So, you will have to close down your online jewelry store. Also, if you sell jewelry on popular marketplaces like eBay or Amazon, they will ban you for selling counterfeit jewelry. And, sometimes you will have to face lawsuits too.
Setup an online store to sell jewelry online
You can sell jewelry in many different places. You can sell them on popular marketplaces like eBay, Etsy or Amazon. Also, you can sell jewelry on your own online store.
Sell jewelry on popular online marketplaces
- Sell jewelry on eBay – Selling on eBay is a great way to get started with e-commerce. You don't have to make any up-front fees for selling jewelry on eBay. And, it is comparatively easier to set up an eBay store. Try How to sell on eBay
- Sell jewelry on Amazon Handmade – You can also use Amazon to sell jewelry online. Apparently, Amazon is the most popular e-commerce marketplace in the US. So, you can easily piggyback their popularity to sell more products. Try Amazon handmade jewelry.
- Sell jewelry on Etsy – Etsy is the most popular marketplaces for arts and crafts. Unlike eBay or Amazon, Etsy is an established niche market for such products. Try Etsy jewelry.
- Sell jewelry on Bonanza – Bonanza is catching up with eBay and Amazon as an alternative marketplace. So, it might be a wise move to start selling jewelry on Bonanza. Unlike eBay and Amazon, you won't find a lot of cut-throat competition on Bonanza. Try Bonanza handmade jewelry.
- Other marketplaces to sell jewelry online – There are several other online marketplaces to sell jewelry. For example, Zibbet, Artfire, and Rubylane are other popular choices to sell jewelry online.
Sell jewelry on your own e-commerce store
Having your own e-commerce store is not a must to sell jewelry online. But, if you have your own e-commerce website, it will be easier for you to build a brand identity for your business, and avoid all the listing fees of using other marketplaces. This will ultimately lead you to make more profits from your online jewelry business. Starting an online store is not a hard thing to do. Maybe you can even do it by yourself. Here I will give you the basic steps of starting an e-commerce store.
- Plan ahead –
Planning is an essential step in building a successful business. An online store is a significant investment in terms of money and your time. So, try to minimize the possibilities of failures. It can be hard and costly to "make drastic changes" after establishing your online presence. Please check How to plan an online business strategy.
- Select the optimum tools and services –
There are different options to build an e-commerce store. You can select services like Shopify to create your e-commerce store without much effort or knowledge about web development. Also, if you like to have more design freedom, you can use services like WordPress+WooCommerce+Hosting to build your e-commerce website. If you are not the most tech-savvy person around, maybe you can hire a freelancing web-developer from Fiverr to develop your e-commerce store too. For more information, please read How to create a business website.
- Purchase a domain –
The domain is like the location of your business. Same as the physical location of a brick and motor store, the domain is one of the most crucial decisions for an online store. When you select a domain name, now you can purchase extensions like .jewelry too. Also, make sure to choose a domain name that will not limit any expansions for your business. For example, if you choose Pritchettbracelets.com, you won't be able to expand your business beyond bracelets. Please check How to choose a domain name.
- Create a brand identity –
The brand identity is the voice and face of your business. Brand identity can make or kill a business. Especially when it comes to selling jewelry online, a brand identity design has a lot to do. For more information, read how to create a brand identity for your business.
- Add e-commerce functions –
To sell jewelry online, you need to add e-commerce functionalities to your website. For example, you need to integrate a payment gateway, have the SSL certificate for the data protection, etc. It is better to follow the blogs and forums of the service that you have used to develop your website to get more information about how to do all these.
- Add jewelry listings –
Adding product listings to your e-commerce store is another important task. Under product listings, we have basic content types. The jewelry photos and product descriptions. When you add jewelry photos on your e-commerce store, you need to add the optimum quality images. We will talk about product photography for jewelry in the next step. When you write product descriptions, you need to write unique and SEO friendly content. Please read 5 common mistakes of product description writing for more details.
Product photography for jewelry business
When you sell jewelry online, unlike some other products, product photography plays a vital role. Online jewelry sale is more or less run on visual intrigues. So, having the right photo is essential to make a sale in your online jewelry business.
Sometimes, product photography for jewelry can be a challenge. It is not easy to capture details with shiny surfaces. It requires the right tools and the right skills to capture jewelry photos. So, even if you are on a budget, don't hesitate to invest in a proper lighting setup and a professional product photographer (at least until you learn the art).
Also, don't hesitate to use good props and real models for the best results. When I say to have models, don't get overwhelmed. There are plenty of "Rising Stars" who will be happy to work with you on a budget. Also, they can help you with influencer marketing too. We'll discuss "marketing" in the next step.

Launch a strong marketing strategy for your jewelry business
Alright, folks, our target is to sell jewelry online. So far, we have discussed how to set up an online jewelry business. And, now we are going to discuss how to sell jewelry online. Online marketing is the key to success for any e-commerce business. So, we need to understand the best marketing strategy for our online jewelry business.
How to use influencer marketing to sell jewelry online
For niches like jewelry, influencer marketing can do magic. When I say influencer marketing, don't start thinking about having a Kardashian to promote your jewelry business. (If you have money, by all means, do so). Those who are on a budget, don't worry, it is not costly to build a good influencer marketing campaign for your products.
This one time, I have promoted a dropshipping jewelry brand with a trending Instagram influencer by naming a product pack after her and gifting her with this product pack. She got super excited to get a jewelry brand named after her, and she went overboard promoting my jewelry store.
It costs me nothing more than the cost of a single product pack for this marketing campaign. So, that is the power of partnering with rising stars. You are new, and they are new. Together, you can cross-promote each other to build your businesses.
Other marketing strategies to sell jewelry online
Influencer marketing is not the only way to promote your online jewelry business. Social media marketing is another effective way to sell jewelry online.
There are 2.5 million social media users, and I am pretty sure that your potential customers must be among them. So, if your online jewelry business doesn't have a social media marketing strategy, you are literally leaving the money on the table. With social media marketing, all you have to do is just create an account and start posting. After you get a good number of followers, you will see the magic in social media marketing in front of your eyes.

When I first considered viewing the phenomena that is the 5-time Oscar nominated 'Whiplash' it was with a small amount of trepidation believing that this was a Rudy character study of overcoming tremendous odds in the world of contemporary Jazz. I was, however, revitalized during the film to learn how wrong my assumptions were, this film was about overcoming odds, but on a much grander scale… at least that's what the film would have you believe. And it did, the film was successful in it's endeavor to make me believe that the goal of prestigious Jazz instructor (J.K. Simmons) to find and mentor a legend on par with Charlie Parker and the methods he employs to achieve this goal.
All the performances given in this move were on point with the depth and complexity that was certainly on the page. Miles Teller is always engaging and keeps the audience on the side of his character Andrew which at times is a difficult gambit with his single minded focus and drive. Personally I find him representative of a younger set of interesting actors who are more Dustin Hoffman than Brad Pitt, not that he is necessarily an everyman, but you aren't likely to see him on a Calvin Klein billboard anytime soon. J.K. Simmons is more or less playing the same character as Teller, just from a different point of life, career, and potential; his Oscar nomination is well deserved and if you're familiar with his work dating back to Oz through parts on several Coen Brothers films and of course in the Spiderman franchise, this won't be a total shock. Watch also for Paul Reiser, who makes hay with the small amount of screen time he does have, especially the understated performance his gives in the closing scene.
The real surprise of this move for me is how much I enjoyed the music; not being a particular fan of Jazz I found the selections engaging and also exceptionally listenable as this is a real music movie considering the fact that we are mostly following one character and his obsessive practicing of the same pieces. On that note it's important to notice how claustrophobic the cinematography is and how effective it is in conveying the personal nature of the film but also demonstrating the cramped spaces that I'm certain the best musicians in New York must suffer considering the premium on real estate that they endure.
In closing 'Whiplash' has my highest recommendation, it set out to demonstrate how and what costs are involved with developing a legend, but doesn't overstep it's bounds and become fantastical. Balanced and nuanced, great music and performances, in the age where the zeitgeist seems to be screaming for an original story that doesn't rely on special effects to wow an audience this is one that needs your support to ensure more of its ilk have an opportunity to see the celluloid of day.

Dutchover ready to fight at nationals on Thursday
Recommended Video:
Mid-Town Solders Boxing Club's Michael Dutchover will seek his second consecutive national title this week when he heads to the 2012 National Silver Gloves Tournament in Independence, Mo.
Dutchover, 14, will compet in the 14-15 year old, 112-pound division as opposed to the 95-pound weight class that he won the national title last year.
Dutchover qualified for his fourth trip to the national tournament after recently winning the Region 6 Silver Gloves Tournament in Little Rock, Ark., when he defeated a boxer from Arkansas and a boxer from Louisiana.
Also heading to the nationals is 13-year-old female boxer Mayday Ibarra, who won the 112-pound division unopposed in Little Rock. Mid-Town Soldiers Boxing Club coach Frank Lujan said this is the first time females in the under-18 age groups can compete at the national tournament.
For a boxer to win the national title, the boxer must win three fights in as many days. Both Dutchover and Ibarra are scheduled to begin competition on Thursday at the Hilton Garden Inn.
Dutchover, who will fight Florida's Antonio Vargas at 8 p.m. Thursday in the first round, likely will see some tougher competition this week than he did at regionals because Lujan said Dutchover's experience was the obvious edge against his opponents.
In addition to increased level of competition, Lujan said Dutchover has gotten used to kids hitting harder once they hit the 100-pound weight class.
"I've told Michael that it only takes one punch to turn the fight around," Lujan said. "But, I think he's adjusted pretty well."
Lujan said the reason for the heavier weight class for Dutchover is because of his recent growth spurt during the past year.
"We wanted for him to fight at 106, but we settled on 112 because he kept stretching on me," Lujan said. "He only ended up fighting once at 106."
To prepare for nationals, Lujan said he took Dutchover to San Antonio last weekend to spar kids who were between 110 and 120 pounds.
"As far as preparation, he's ready," Lujan said. "I feel we'll go as far as Michael wants to go. We just can't have bad days. But, Michael knows what it's like to lose at nationals and what it's like to win, and he's pretty disciplined.
"What I like about Michael is that he doesn't make a big deal whether he wins or loses. He just moves on to the next day."
And, it's that focus and discipline that Lujan talks about that might make a difference for Dutchover this week.

Virtue describes a habitual way of acting.
For the most part, virtue is not inborn, but we must learn it through many years practice until it becomes "habitual" and "second nature" to us.
If virtue is not habitual and "second nature", there is always the extremely good chance that we will not act virtuously: when called upon to act, we may react with something distinctly non-virtuous. It happens all the time.
We must be trained in virtue, we must practice virtue, we must meditate on virtue, and we actually should do so in a way that is at least as structured as the training we undergo for the rest of our lives. We train for good habits in sports, in work, in driving... every activity has its good habits and we try to practice them.
We train for good eating habits. Think of diet and nutrition, and think how difficult that may be, and how we are constantly trying to improve our diets and trying to reduce calories or cholesterol or increase fiber or whatnot. This is the Virtue of Weight Watchers.
We should struggle to be virtuous with at least as much effort as we struggle to eat healthy.
Just as to our regret we have let the Responsibility for our Good Nutrition be handled by Food Processing Companies and Developers of Genetically Modified Foods, so also did we all Responsibility for our Good Virtue to be handled by priesthoods, preachers, and people with a constant flow of new ideas for self-improvement.
This was a mistake that led us to be as ignorant about our food as we are ignorant about virtue; our inability to focus on the processes involved in the entire food procurement and preparation process as well as the inability to train into good habits instilled in us a sense of prudishness that led us to hide the whole messy business, and to encapsulate it all into small and tidy boxes: the cardboard containers of processed foods ready to gulp down, and the Sunday morning ritual of marching off to holy orders from the pulpit.
It is acceptable for us to be open about our diet and our weight, but we are much more secretive about our morals, unless we are holding forth about what is wrong with the world.
It is a good thing that we keep our sense of morality hidden prudishly, for it is between God and us and no other beings.
Therefore, we need not be endlessly preached at about what is moral, but we do need help establishing our independent quests for morality: we need early training and structure that allows us to eventually stand as adults on our own two feet and be virtuous.

It's entirely possible that North American manufacturing could have become extinct if it weren't for the coordinate measuring machine (CMM). Factories in North America used to be more productive than factories anywhere else in the world, but globalization subjected them to compete in countries with fewer regulations and cheaper labour.
It was automation which made factories here competitive again, and CMM machines feature large in automation, often playing the role of automating quality control along production lines.
You can read the Canadian Measurement Metrology Blog to keep up with all the ways to make sure your machines work properly, and learn about all the latest equipment and software that can give your business efficient and reliable results in greater detail. Meanwhile, here is an overview about the different kinds of CMM machines on the market.
1. Bridge CMM
Definitely the most popular CMM machine from the 1970s to today is the Bridge CMM. Beyond just being found in factories all over North America, it's been the mainstay of coordinate metrology for decades.
Bridge CMMs are ubiquitous because they can handle the largest range of part sizes. If you factor in its precision and reliability, as well as the price point at which it's offered, it's unsurprising that Bridge CMMs are found all over the continent.
2. Portable CMM
The ROMER Arm is the most well-known portable CMM machine, and it's an incredibly versatile machine. It can perform quality control, inspection, on-machine verification, virtual assembly and also 3D modelling. Portable CMMS can also take existing parts and reverse engineer blueprints.
No matter which industry is using the Portable CMM, they are celebrated for their durability, toughness and precision. The arm can measure the dimensions of parts or products on all of its sides, and because of its integrated scanning system inspection can be done right on the shop floor. Portable CMMs can collect thousands of data points per second, using its white light or laser system.
3. Vision and Multisensor Systems
Sometimes a part or object can't be scanned with the tactile probe because it is just too small or delicate. This is what the Vision and Multisensor Systems are designed for.
By using white lights and video scanners, these CMM machines can measure parts smaller than 600 millimetres squared in area, and less than 200 millimetres tall.
4. Gantry CMM
Gantry CMM machines resemble Bridge CMs, only they can scan much bigger parts. For this reason, they are used by the automotive and aerospace industries, where production lines work with extremely large parts and absolute precision is required. Gantry CMMs have a hand in the building of parts meant for planes, cars, and spaceships.
You can easily load the parts by lift truck or crane because of the Gantry's open access to the measuring volume. Gantry CMMs thankfully require little maintenance — the guideways and drive systems are located safely away from dirt or other contaminants.
The CMM machine that works for you will largely be determined by the nature of what your factory produces. If your factory's production line can benefit from automation, speak to a specialist who can direct you to the CMM machine that deliver all your needs.
