note from the editor

Welcome to the Jewelry By BDK Handmade Jewelry magazine for August 2023. Our team is excited about what is coming up for the magazine. We can’t wait to learn, uncover and share with you the remarkably talented jewelry artisans who make up the industry.

Our handmade jewelry community's strength and resilience is inspiring, and we hope to present some amazing collections, jewelry designers, and resources in upcoming publications.

In 2022, Jewelry By BDK magazine underwent many growing pains and accomplished many goals. Not only did our team evolve and grow, we also went through a complete brand overhaul. At Jewelry By BDK.com, you’ll see new earthy boho pieces, revamped branding, an updated website, and a collection of our designs attainable for wholesale on Faire.com. In addition to all that, we are increasing our digital media presence through our digital magazine.

The truth is, in the industry, relationships are formed and forged through networking. A growing number of jewelry designers and businesses are open to supporting and helping each other to grow in any way that they can.

This is your handmade jewelry magazine, your story, and your talent. We are very proud to be a part of it, and to share it with the world.
