Disclosure

from Rena Klingenberg, owner and publisher

Visitors and fans of this Making-Jewelry-Now.com website often ask me how I can afford the time and expense of providing a steady stream of jewelry making information here - completely free of charge.

In fact, many of you have very kindly asked if you could donate money to help keep this site going.

I deeply appreciate your thoughtful offers - but instead of asking for donations, I've set up a few streams of income on this website.

These compensate me for the time and expense involved in publishing this site and my email newsletter Jewelry Business Success News - and enable me to keep it all free for jewelry artists to access.

• Sales of the ebooks and printed books I've written.
• Relevant third-party advertisements I host on many of the pages here.
• Commissions I receive on some of the third-party products or services I recommend, when my readers purchase them via a link on my website. (However, the commission never affects the price you pay for those products, nor any of your legal rights involved in your purchase.)

My goal with this website is to provide high-quality information and resources that help jewelry artists find creative, do-it-yourself ways to make handmade jewelry.

So when I recommend a product, service or resource, it's either:

• something I've personally used and find valuable; or
• something I've investigated or tested personally and believe it would be useful to other jewelry artists.

I'm NOT paid to provide product reviews, and advertisers do not influence the content of this website.

This website receives direct monetary compensation from links to some outside websites.

This site does not publish content which might present a conflict of interest.

Please also see my Copyright, Disclaimer, and Privacy Policy.

If you have any questions about this disclosure, please contact me.
