Anyone know of a good place to get very budget friendly or even free templates that would be helpful in selling jewelry. I can modify it, change colors, swap logo, etc., I just don't have time to build it. I'm hoping for one that has Content Management System and that has a "store" like component already set up.
Thanks.

I wish ... mine is hand written, including the tables and tags, and I wish I knew enough CSS to make style sheets rather than formatting by putting tables inside of tables, forget shopping cart and all that.
If anybody has one, me too ... (but I'd want to keep my format because I like it)

I figured out which line they didn't let me post .
As for web templates: I don't know what keeps me from tackling shopping carts, but there's always enough other stuff to do to keep me from tackling new things (including other new things). Mary's (chaddock) website looks simple enough as the layout goes and has a shopping cart in it. I know Kalera (beadwife) has inventory management, but I also know that Moxley wrote that. I really honestly can't recommend mine because it's too much work to maintain.
Adios and Aloha,

Even a simple site takes a lot of time to maintain. I use Google Apps to host my website (it's free). You select one of their templates and edit the pages via their web management tools. The interface is similar to blogspot's editor. I have a few gripes, but overall it's not bad. The shopping cart is also a freebie from PayPal. If you have a paypal account (verified), they provide you with an online tool. You input the price, description, shipping costs, and a few other things and they generate the javascript code for you to paste into you web page. You get the "Add to Cart" icon and PayPal takes care everything else.
The biggest time consumer for me is keeping my inventory up to date (Adding new item & deleting sold ones).
