Fast and Easy Jewelry Gift Bags to Make

by Rena Klingenberg on May 7, 2008

Packaging is the icing on the cake when it comes to jewelry sales.

Dawn Woodward makes lovely, custom-sized gift bags for her jewelry.  She says:

“I want to give my customers something different, something indulgent and unique when it comes to a paper bag to wrap their jewellery purchase in.

“I’m going to share with you how I make a bag like this in just 5 minutes (Yes, FIVE!) - and how they can help to increase your jewellery sales.”

See Dawn’s lovely gift bags - and her instructions for making them - in her article, Gorgeous Paper Gift Bags to Make…and Wow Your Customers.

A reader named Swedie adds this tip:

“As an addition to the gift bag article:  If they want to have their own company name on the bag, they can design a rubber stamp to have made, or they can have small or large stickers made to attach to the bag.”

I bought a case of white lunch-type bags at Sam’s Club. I purchased clear address labels from Staples. I used the same layout that I use to print my business cards but adjusted it to fit the labels and printed away.

My customers cannot possibly forget who I am because I use a mini version of my business card as my hang tag, include a business card with every purchase, and now have my contact information on the bag. I wondered if it might be overselling but I’ve had customers thank me for being so thorough.
