Find your niche

There are many different types of jewelry niches, for example, essential oil jewelry or yoga jewelry. In the case of essential oil jewelry, there is an opening in the piece that can hold a drop or two of your favorite essential oil. The oils can help with mood. Yoga jewelry is typically made up of beads, gemstones, or other small objects to provide guidance during yoga classes or meditation. Of course, some people wear them for fashion. These are often very colorful and have different themes, too.
