While the most straightforward way of earning income through jewelry making is to sell it, this doesn’t always work for everyone. So, some jewelry makers start to realize they need to find another way to turn their passion into profit. The problem is finding your niche. What is it? Where is it? How do you find it? Razine “Ray” Wenneker is one wire artist that has finally found her niche and is making her love of metal jewelry making into a successful business by helping others learn the craft of working with wire.
Ray began her wire business, called Ellie Rose Link-Able Designs, by teaching classes, but soon realized that she could teach more people by creating wire kits. Now, through her website, she has begun to offer kits for beginners, supplying everything from the tools needed, to the wire, and of course, instructions to help complete the finished piece. Plus, no soldering is required to make any of the finished pieces from her kits.
It’s nice to see a fellow jewelry maker find her creative voice as well as business niche, and it’s even better to discover someone who has found a way to share her talents and inspiration with others. Ray offers more than just a jewelry lesson; she offers a lesson in ingenuity as well.
