Question: does anyone know what metals contain nickel?

not sure where to ask this question. Im setting up my own business selling jewellery making supplies, i know that there is a uk regulation which means i can only sell nickel free items, but i need help finding out what metals contain it (unless stated).
Could you answer the following
Does copper contain nickel?
Tibetan silver contain nickel?
any other metals that you can think of.

Answer: there's no firm rule. you simply must demand your suppliers supply nickel-free product.
Pure copper is just that. Copper containing anything else is an alloy.

Question: How to make cameo jewelry with artwork?

I'm a painter and I also love jewelry. Recently I've been interested in making cameo jewelry (necklaces, lockets etc.) with my images of my artwork on them. However I'm unsure how they are made, is there some kind of plastic that goes over the image to protect it? Does anyone know how or of any websites that tell how you can make cameo jewelry not with clay but with printed images.

Answer: A cameo in the true sense is a carving mounted on a flat base with a metal frame around it.

But recently people have started doing picture ones and calling them cameos, even though technically they are miniatures. You can mount your picture on a metal cup and put it in a cameo frame, then cover it with a clear bezel cover made just for that purpose. Or you can print your picture on plastic, or print it on paper and laminate it with plastic or decoupage medium. Some crafters are calling it "faux dichroic")

Question: What are some different parties that I could host for business opportunities?

For example, a few of my friends have recently been holding jewelry parties and candle parties. I'm looking to make a little extra money and I don't know of many businesses where I can work directly with a business and hold home shows to sell the product. Another example would be Avon. Any ideas?

Answer: Scentsy wickless candles are a great way to earn a little extra money! They have been around for just over 5 years and just opened up in Canada! Please check out my web site on my profile page~!
