Make your silver charms and pendants really count

Combine silver charms with unexpected elements to make jewelry that is unique AND cost-efficient! It is more than possible to showcase your favorite silver charms and pendants but keep costs low by diversifying your designs. A silk ribbon or a length of leather cord are both great elements to spruce up your designs without breaking the bank.

Dark Angel Necklace

We have a great selection of silk ribbons, leather cord, gemstone beads and pearls to choose from. With the price of silver on the rise, it is sometimes difficult to create designs entirely in silver that are affordable. Don’t be discouraged! Consider it a challenge to create jewelry that is affordable yet every bit as beautiful.

I have been trying to tackle this challenge in my own jewelry designs. In my most recent design I used our black hand-dyed silk, a pair of diametrically opposed angel wing pendants, and one silver cross pendant. I didn’t use much silver in this necklace and as a result the silver cross is a very special, much appreciated part of the piece.

I scattered large hole pearls throughout to add a bit of color and interest. I also utilized a few pearls as slider beads to finish the necklace and make it adjustable! My Dark Angel Necklace was a success in creating beautiful jewelry on a budget.

Discounted Silver Charms a Steal!!!

Filed under: Great Deals! — Tags: @ 8:30 am

Overstock and discontinued silver charms and other silver jewelry supplies are a steal! We have not raised  prices on these items. Some discontinued styles were originally priced when silver was $14/oz.  They are further discounted up to 60%. An item that was originally $1 would normally be selling for $1.60 today. Instead, you can buy it for $0.40. That is a 75% discount!! Needless to say, these items are selling out fast.

We have been getting calls from customers who think our overstock item prices are listed wrong on the website, but those low prices are correct. We won’t increase the price on overstock items to current silver price levels until we sell through the extra stock. In the meantime, you can save 40% off the old price. Items that would be priced at $1.60 today are selling as low as $0.75. That is 47% below current price levels.

These amazing deals won’t last.  Stock up while we still have stock!

This gorgeous clasp is 60% off!

Now 40% off!

25% Overstock Sale

Spring cleaning is a nice way to look at reviewing your jewelry findings inventory. In the spring, new blossoms arrive and we are inspired to refresh and renew. Here at Nina Designs I just reviewed our inventory of jewelry findings. As a result, over 40 additional styles have been put on Overstock Sale at 25% off. Many styles that were already on overstock sale have been increased to 40% off.

These are wonderful items with the same high quality you expect from Nina Designs. We just have more on hand than we need based on current sales. As soon as inventory levels on these items drop down to current needs, the sale will end. Get them now while they’re discounted! Also, if these items inspire you, don’t worry – we will continue to carry them, just with lower inventory levels.

In addition to Overstock Sale items, we also offer steeply discounted Closeout items. These Closeout styles will no longer be available once we sell out. There are some beautiful styles at up to 65% off. When using closeout styles in your jewelry, be sure to mention to your customers or the friends who are enjoying your work that the pieces used are “limited edition” because the parts can no longer be purchased once we sell out.

I hope this information will encourage you to take a look at our Sale Items. You never know what treasures you may find and buying Overstock and Closeout styles are a great way to stretch your dollar in this challenging economy. All of us at Nina Designs frequently take advantage of Overstock sale items and buy them before the sale ends!
