# Bring your jewelry collections to life

### Prepare Your Files

Ensure your **.3dm files** are ready with basic details filled in the **Boutique Panel** (both **Name** and **Description** are required).\
Add a **cover image** named either `Collection.jpg` or `Components.jpg`.\
Optionally, include **preview images** for each design using the same name as the **.3dm file**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Organize Your Folder

The folder must contain only the required files: the `.3dm` file, the cover image in `.jpg` format, and optionally, preview images also in `.jpg` format. No other file types should be included. Make sure all images are saved as `.jpg` to ensure compatibility.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Start the Collection Process

Open the **Boutique menu** and select **Create a Collection**.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### **Enter Collection Details**

Input the **Collection Name** and **Description** when prompted.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Configure Multi-Metal Options (if needed)

The system will ask if the collection supports **Multi-Metals**.

* If **yes**, include extra images for each metal color:
  * `W` for **White**
  * `Y` for **Yellow**
  * `R` for **Rose**
  *

{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Finalize the Collection

Choose whether to:

* **Add the collection to your catalog**, or
* **Generate a .zip file** for external use.
  {% endstep %}
  {% endstepper %}

### **Why generate a .zip file?**

Creating a **.zip file** gives you the flexibility to **share your collection effortlessly** outside RhinoArtisan. Send it to your **customers** for review, collaborate seamlessly with your **design team**, or keep a **backup** of your work neatly organized. It’s the perfect way to present your designs anywhere, anytime—whether you're emailing concepts, working remotely, or showcasing your collection at events.

**Freedom to share. Freedom to impress.**
