Hello Sharon:
I`m a huge proponent of article marketing. Besides the SEO benefits, which include inbound links from quality websites, it will allow you to reach your target audience affordably. If you`re not familiar with article marketing, read my article, "What is Article Marketing? Another affordable option is ezine advertising. If you`re not familiar with ezine advertisng, read my article, "Ezine Advertising: A Great Alternative to Pay-Per-Click."

Thanks for your response but the zinester site does not have a directory category for my product or target audience.
My pleasure, Sharon. If you Google "artisan jewelry newsletters," you should be able to find plenty of publications to advertise in.

Both!
Thanks!
