The Charm Cellar is Open for Business
It’s been a while since I started visualizing having my own site where I sell vintage charms. About a year ago I began with a vision and now it’s finally ready.
My New Maps of European Countries Charm Bracelet
I just bought this bracelet on ebay and was going to disassemble it to sell but now I can’t decide if I want to sell it or keep it. It’s got ten enamel sterling silver European country maps including their flags in pastel colors. I’m a sucker for enamel charms.
Thomas L Mott – Vintage TLM Charms For Sale
I’m a big collector of Thomas L Mott vintage charms. As I sorted through my collection recently I realized that I have a few duplicates and have decided to offer them for sale. Most are bright and pretty enamels and some are sterling silver with a warm vintage patina.
News About My Vintage Jewelry Business
My new website “The Charm Cellar” should be ready soon. I am eagerly looking forward to testing my skills at selling vintage charms on my very own independent site. Also I bought a new program called Phpbay that allows me to showcase my favorite ebay categories and searches on my blog pages.
Snapeez Locking Jump Rings Free with Every Vintage Charm Purchase
It’s a new marketing strategy I’m rolling out. These are amazing little devices that snap shut pretty securely when used to attach a charm to a charm bracelet. I haven’t lost a charm yet and I’ve been using them for a while now. And they are much less expensive than soldering by a jeweler. It’s [...]

Charmchatter Starts Advertising
Greetings charmers worldwide! I’ve been very involved with my new job for the past couple of weeks and have neglected to do any blogging. I’ve not completely forgot about this little site I’ve got started here though.
What sparked the advertising idea was a generous offer by Rachel Whitlow of Whitlow Unique Collectibles. She invited [...]

I’m so pleased to now offer for sale in my Bonanzle Booth and in my ebay store the incredible Snapeez Locking Jump Rings. I wrote about these magic rings in a previous post and have since had many requests for them. So I contacted the distributor and I am now an authorized reseller of these [...]
I’m Going to My First Jewelry Trade Show
I just received my badge and preview guide for the Orlando Gift Show and Jewelry & Accessories Expo to be held January 24-26 here in town. I’m psyched. This will be my first trade show and I’ve been taking notes from Lisa Suttora’s WhatdoISell audio training on how to navigate trade shows. She tells about [...]
So Much Vintage Jewelry To Sell
This morning I started thinking about goals for 2009, and decided that getting my jewelry inventory listed for sale would be a good start. So I dumped it all out & started to sort. But before I did I took this photo, which is about half of the box. So now I have a list [...]

I’ve recently had a re-design and now there are links in the header and sidebar to my Bonanzle booth and the jewelry I sell there. My intent is to further not only my business, but also to bring awareness to this great new marketplace…..
Mindset Matters
This afternoon I listened to a webinar called “Mindset Matters” given by Lisa Suttora, founder of WhatDoISell.com. This came at a perfect time for me. I have to admit that the past few weeks I’ve had days when I question my ability to do on-line sales. Between the economy and the ebay foolishness my sales [...]
Bonanzle Blues
My own fault – sometimes I’m good on plan & bad on execution. A month or so ago I uploaded my fixed price inventory from ebay over to Bonanzle when I started a Bonanzle Booth. Unfortunately the template that I use on ebay transferred over a bunch of HTML in the text so all the [...]
My Strageties For The New Ebay Promotions
I’ve been doing some testing with the new Fixed Price 30 format and the free shipping that Ebay is offering now and have decided for my particular niche it isn’t really helping my business. There are a lot of variables involved and I haven’t officially calculated any profit or fee savings using high tech formulas [...]
