What exactly IS photo jewelry, anyways?
Photo jewelry is a fun and easy craft that anyone can do! We sell blank photo pendants, photo rings, photo bracelets, photo charms, photo cufflinks, and more cool and unique photo products. All of the items have a blank area for a photo. We sell do it yourself kits with everything included that you need to make a complete photo item. We also sell the items individually if you are looking to purchase them without a kit.
How do you get the picture so small?
Long ago before our EZ photo resizer software existed, making your digital photos just the right size for photo jewelry could take hours of guesswork and printing, wasting what seems like zillions of sheets of photo paper only to still have them not fit right! With our EZ resizer software, all you do is select your photo, select the predefined size that goes with your product, and print! The corresponding size number will be on the items page next to the item number, and also listed on your invoice. Print ovals, circles, squares, and more! It's really that easy.
Okay..so after I print my pictures, then what? How do you seal the photo into the jewelry?
Once you print out your photo with our super easy EZ resizer software and place it into the blank photo area, cover it with the photo jewelry clear coating. It is a two part mixture that you mix together in the included mixing cups. Apply the necessary amount to the photo area and let dry 24-48 hours. That's it! See the
photo jewelry clear coating tutorialfor more information on how the clear coating works.
I saw this blank pendant and it was really cute, but it doesn't come in a kit. How can I buy just a few individual pendants or charms and still get everything I need to make them?

Wow that seems really cool.. but what if I don't want to use the clear coating? Do you have any photo jewelry I can make?
We have a selection of EZ-change photo jewelry that is easy to make as a quick gift in a pinch. These items have a plastic sleeve that covers the photo and do not require any clear coating.

What if I want to put something else into the photo frame besides a picture? Can I do that?
Absolutely! We have many customers that use our blank photo pieces for other craft projects such as inserting pieces of fabric, lace, buttons, beads, cameos, and more. The clear coating will hold into place most any object that you wish to put into a photo frame.

Is this a custom jewelry site where I send you my photos and you make it for me? I saw some other jewelry somewhere that was made already but it was really expensive.
No, we do not make the items, we only sell the supplies for you to make it yourself. You can save TONS of money (and make even more money!) making photo jewelry yourself! Plus you get to brag about how your beautiful photo jewelry piece was handmade by you, not someone else or a machine.

How do the Italian charms work? Do I need some kind of clasp to hook them together?
Nope! You do not need any additional clasps or hooks to make an Italian charm bracelet. The Italian charms attach to each other by sliding out and hooking in. You can see a photo of how this works at this link on our blog:
