One thing we LOVE doing is showing off our clients' work using Magpie Gemstones. You get a link to your site, we get to show off the beauties in action. Many clients have said they have sold their jewelry when we publish it. Just send me a link to your shop and a link to your jewelry, or a photo to magpie@magpiegemstones.com. Want to see the " Clients' Art Gallery"?
This last one is for others who want to promote. Contact us and if you have a large fan base and can get us some great exposure we will donate gems or certificates to you to giveaway. Contact us and we will talk!
