drafting necklace // work for today


Tinkering with a custom necklace design, I have been loving this style ever since I made the gemstone piece.
Instead of all beads / charms / flowers gathered at the end of the chain, like I usually do, this style uses all those materials to make up the chain :)

tassels // work for today


I like tassels but haven't found a ready made one, oh well, better to make it myself then ;)

this is a custom piece for my local buyer, she wants sky blue theme with birdie charms while I proposed a tassel in the center for that flowy, dreamy look.
Very pleased with the result, you will most likely see tassels incorporated in my pieces really soooonnn!

pearls

I have got a local buyer who loves pearls, she asked me to make her a set, here's what I came up with:


 Kept it simple with 2 hearts dangling off :)


I rarely make earrings these days, once in a while I accept requests and this pair is made to match the bracelet or worn as it is.
I don't have fresh water pearls in teardrop shape so I suggested cream coloured glass pearls, topped off with Swarovski crystal on top. 



Talking about custom orders, here's another one I made recently, one of my favourite designs ever!

Theme: Dark Angel


It's made of layers of chain, with 2 of them weaved together.
I tried it on as well, it's a bit small for me but I just wanted to take a photo of it to show the hanging chains :)



I'm always happy to receive custom requests, extremely flattering that buyers trust me in putting together their ideas :) at times I don't even believe it, sounds like something too good to be true for someone as ordinary as me... 

Thank you ♥

Having a retail space means I simply have to have a large inventory, ie multiple pieces of a design

Here's one of them- Sorella, a simple bracelet I really like :)


I'm making this in yellow & purple as well, apart from the original pink listed in store.
(if you would like these new colours, let me know via etsy, I'll make it for you)

alphabets

I have been busy working on these alphabets, a custom order from a local buyer of mine. She's having a high school reunion party with her girls end of this month and asked if I could make something with each girls' initials on it, of course I jumped at the idea! I love doing customizations as it forces you to move beyond your comfort zone and thinking hard to incorporate all the ideas into a piece of jewelry.


Some ideas can be pretty bizarre but they are all part & parcel of why customizations are so fun, I have been doing customizations for my local buyers for close to 2 years now and with each order, it simply gets easier. I still remember my first request and was really nervous with all sorts of possible scenarios playing in mind, but thank God everything went smoothly and ever since then, I'm hooked!
