Earring cards – How to design and make your own

Your earring cards can help you sell more of your handmade jewelry. They should complement the style of your jewelry, display your work nicely, and answer questions from your customers about the earrings they liked.

Although you can buy ready-made earring cards from most jewelry suppliers, I find it much more professional to make your own. Your unique custom earring packaging adds a high-quality, handcrafted touch to your jewelry line, especially when paired well with your other jewelry packaging.

Earring cards are easy to design and make, or they can be made for you. And you can make them for pennies apiece—a good investment considering the impression they make.

What information should your earring cards have?

* Information about your jewelry business –

Somewhere on the card, be sure to include the name of your jewelry business, along with all of your contact information: your website URL, email address, and phone number.

Also, if you are active on any of the major online social networks, you may want to add your profile(s) to your jewelry packaging, as many of your customers are probably active there as well and prefer to communicate with you. that way.

You may need to put your contact information on the back of the card to prevent the front text from distracting customers from the earrings.

Your contact information helps customers feel like you’re a legitimate business that will be around for a while. It implies that you stand behind your jewelry and that you can be contacted if the customer has a problem with your products.

Additionally, customers often keep personalized earring cards and jewelry tags, usually by hiding them somewhere in their jewelry box. And when a customer has your contact information handy, there’s a good chance they’ll contact you or shop on your website when they want to buy more jewelry or have custom pieces made.

Even when customers misplace their business card, they tend to keep the unique, personalized earring display cards that come with their handmade jewelry!

* The jewelry components you used in the earrings –

Your earring cards should also list the materials (all beads, stones, clay, metals, paper, etc.) used to create the pair of earrings dangling on that card.

This information is especially important for people who have metal sensitivities and need to be sure of the metal they will use in their earlobes.

* Your Logo (Optional) –

If you have a logo design for your jewelry business, I recommend including it somewhere on all of your jewelry packaging. Helps create customer awareness and recognition for your jewelry line.

What size earring cards do you need?

Before you design your earring cards, carefully measure your earring displays, as well as the bags or boxes that you will place your earrings in when they are sold.

I found out the hard way that measuring a little ahead of time can save you a lot of frustration after making your earring cards!

More tips for creating your own earring cards

Be sure to use the heaviest cardstock that will work in your printer or copier. Heavier paper will help your cards survive handling at jewelry shows and house parties.

Use only acid-free paper or cardstock for all your earring cards and jewelry tags. Anything else will cause the metals in your jewelry to tarnish more quickly.
