I like it with the ribbons I just think you'd have to cover yourself with a little *note to say ribbons aren't included - inspiration is  Wink

Exactly, I love the inspiration bit!!

I reckon some people must be that thick, its why people always say "back and front of the same bead" because some people actually probably expect two Grin

Another buyers view: I agree with nemea that you want clear illustrative photos. So a little bit of dressing is fine. A good compromise would be to have 2 shots - one purely to show the bead as is with no staging except maybe an object that would give an immediate clue to size and a second shot that was dressed artfully. Descriptions are also important and obviously you can explain the photo.

You know how I've been struggling with taking photos of my jewellery - I like the simple approach but it has to be eyecatching in the first instance - not an easy line to walk.

However, a beautiful bead will sell itself. Maybe your backgrounds could be slightly textured to achieve the same nice look without interfering with the 'illustrative' function of the photo?
