I am looking to start selling some homemade jewellery, not start a business but sell a few items that i have made mainly to see if people like what I make - do i need to have product insurance to do this? What do people do while selling through Facebook or other online sites? Thank you

If you are buying pieces to make products and selling them then that is a business. Even if you only sell one or two or even if you don't make a profit. You are buying to sell so that makes it a business and therefore it needs to be declared.
You need to register as self employed. You would also need product liability insurance in case your product causes injury or damage.
If selling on a stall or anything like that you may need public liability insurance.
Not sure what you mean by "what do people do while selling through Facebook or other online sites?"0
