If you make jewlery- I have a quick question for you!
Hi ladies,
My DH and I are hoping to adopt soon and I am looking for fund-raising ideas. Through the later part of our infertility journey I have been wearing a necklace with a rectangular pewter charm that says, "have faith." I was thinking I could order a bunch and sell them as a fund-raiser, however I cannot find them online anywhere! It was only $4 when I bought it so I know it can't be too expensive to buy in bulk. It looks similar to this in shape:
Where do you get your charms from? And if you print your own words/design on silver charms, how do you do it? Also, what's a cheap material to hang a charm on (for a necklace or a bracelet)?
Thanks so much!
