I'm trying to figure out new ways to display my jewerly when I'm selling at events, so I was woundering how everyone displays their stuff at events. Or if anyone had any suggestions or advice on good ways to display jewerly >^.^<

for bracelets and necklaces my husband built me displays... they are basically shelves with the brackets attached to the back with brass hooks along the top. I have also seen people using window shutters the kind with the slats to hang ear rings and pieces on cards.

Whenever I sell at a venue, I lay most of my pieces flat down. I have three velvet necklace/earring displays and I recycled an old wire rack to hold most of my earrings up. I also have two old towel racks that I have adapted to become bracelet holder. I use a black table cloth on my 6x3 table and a red one on my 4x2.

I feel like my jewerly gets lost when I lay it flat. It could be that my table cloth has littl black skull and crossbones. And congrats on your 100th post!

I use a varity of diffrent displays. The vast majority i made myself. I use a group of 8 racks with bars spaced at 3.5 inches to hang earring cards on. I have a collection of necklace and braclet displays that fit on the same bars. All the signs have hangers as well so my racks are modular and can be adjusted to fit product on hand and size of the space I have avalible. I use 4 foot tables...I usually set up 5 for my standard 10 x 10 canopy. The goal is to kinda curve things up...so i'll have some peices flat on the table, then some ramps for bracelets, then earrings hanging nearly vertical. Hight is required. It gets peoples attention as they walk by. lets them see the pretties.

Keep the space clean, Sold colors. Mostly you'll find jewelry on black, you can get a decent velvteen or velvet with out paying too much. I use a dark blue 100% silk velvet cuz I'm an idiot. I recently did a display with a deep red velveteen. It looked so good I may steal the idea. Deep dark colors give the right kinda of feeling. powerful, strong, and rich.

The simple truth is most show fixtures are just retail fixtures, they don't travel well, they tend to be bulky and heavy. Jewelry tends to use a lot of displays. I design and build my own displays and displays for other artists. I design with an eye for lightweight, folding and portable. The first is a folding necklace show display, folds up so that you can leave the product inside. The second one is set up as a retail display, but would work just fine as a show display.

I use fireplace screens, plant stands, and some regular jewelry displays.. I'll try to dig up some pics from shows.
The screens enable me to see people in front of the table, and also are wind resistant-which is a big bonus at outdoor events.

We use alot of the displays that are for sale at Michael's (coupons are great for this) and we are slowly starting to try and be more original like using this stone turtle dish i have to sell our 'toys'. And we try to display as much as we can on my girlfriend.
