Determine a style you would like to focus on for your jewelry by looking to fashion and talking to friends to find out what they like. The season may also dictate what you would like to try first.

Try making several pieces and having your friends and family critique them. Get their advice on your different pieces and how your can make them better or stand out from the crowd. You may even get other great ideas from them that you can add to your jewelry craft.

You should also start looking at how you will be selling these. Will you be selling them online? Or will you be attending local craft fairs and displaying your wonders there. You may want to attend a few fairs first. Have a look around. Check out how the other vendors are displaying their crafts and what type of things they are bringing to the fair. Displaying the pieces will also be instrumental in how many sales you will get so pay attention to that as well .

If you have a batch of jewelry ready for sales you could even have home parties to start off with. Make pretty displays and have plenty of mirrors on hand so everyone can see how beautiful your pieces look. Start small and don't get intimidated.

Decide when you will be ready to start your marketing for your business. This will give you an edge so that your home based jewelry business is a success right from the start. Do your research and plan ahead on how you will implement your business so that you will be prepared every step of the way. Above all make sure you have fun and do not stifle your creatively.
