jenna asked: I inherited my grandmother’s jewelry. Some of it is very obviously costume jewelry but other pieces look like they may be gold. How can you know (without going to a jeweler) if something is gold, gold filled, gold plated etc? Is “gold filled” valuable?

To like a jewelry store? I don’t know, I also wanted to know around how much money you make doing that? Thank you.

Katy asked: I am trying to figure out what color jewelry and what makeup works best for my prom look. I have a dark turquoise prom dress with allover turquoise/green/purple beading. I have very fair skin, blond hair, and blue eyes. Looking for what color bracelets/earrings/rings would go with my dress and features…I’m not planning on wearing a necklace because my dress has a criss-cross style neck. Any help is appreciated!

K.B. asked: I’ve seen some interesting jewelry for sale on crafter sites (like Etsy etc) that appear to be metal that is pinkish in color, either by the metal’s property itself, or it’s been colored somehow.
I can’t seem to find anything for sale on the jewelry supply sites anywhere.
Anyone seen anything like this? Either already colored or a process by which you can color it yourself?
I’m talking about either chain link for bracelets, or the links and findings.
