    Ok this part I know save yourself a ton of money and register the
    entire line under one group name. Individual pieces may be
    copyrighted at the same time if they are part of a series. 

    Example 

    Teen Grunge Fun series  The ultimate grunge series containing hip hop
    hugger earrings, bigbuster bracelets etc 

    I am doing a teen line too but cannot afford to copyright it yet
    though luckily no other party is going to touch them they go straight
    from me to retailer or to shows. 

    All I have to do under law is advertise them in a print and once I
    earn money (hopefully crossing fingers) from sales I can get the
    copyright official. But every work of art in any media now is owned
    in the USA by the artist . Outshipping to other countries is tricky
    as the International copyright laws are amazingly complicated. If you
    are outsourcing get a copyright lawyer spend the 100-500 depending on
    your region for a consult and contract for casting firm. 

    Lawyers are necessary unfortunately at times, but then think of the
    heartache and stress saved in the future.
