Special Orders

Jun 21, 2008 22:12

Ok, I've done a lot of special orders, whether they be for gifts, special occasions or even wedding jewelry!  So here are some samples of what I've done and an idea of the price range.  I may be able to recreate these, though the butterfly wing pendants are one of a kind and were supplied by the bride.  At the moment,  I only have pictures of the ( Read more... )

Heyo. I'm doing some swaps and I'd love to have two sets of earrings made, but I'm worried about how long it would be until I get them. One set I need in my hands by next wed (short notice I know) and I would like them to be silvertone, very simple and with bright colors like jewel tone reds, blues, purples or greens. Bright bright! The other I need by like next month midway (10th-15th) also silvertone and with black or brown colors and if possible an owl or bat bead or dangly thing. Lemme know asap what we can do. I have my wedding coming up so maybe future commissions ;)

I'm sorry for the delay in response! I didn't realize that my notifications for this journal were still going to my old e-mail that I just chanced upon checking before bed! Will be changing that ASAP ( ... )

No worry about the “delay”-the response time was just fine.
Nickle plated should be fine, neither participant reported any allergies or sensitivities-now, when I do my commission for me, I will need sterling silver because I do have a nickel allergy. However, for these two, silvertone/nickel plated is fine.

For the first set, I kinda liked the look of the dutch tulip earrings that were part of a set, but with either bright or dark jeweltone colors. I don’t want them to be too long. As for what kind of beads/crystals, I am definitely not a visionary. I’d say colorwise either a blue/green or red/purple or red/blue maybe. Really if you throw ideas at me, I could probably pick through’em.

Sorry to hear about your injury, but glad you’ve hit recovery! Just hit me back when you are able, I check my e-mail pretty frequently.

Thank you!

Alright, I cleaned off my workspace, pulled all of my beads and findings out of the bottom and top of my closet, sorted through it all and found some bits right off. I don't have any of those tulips in jewel tones, but I have them in clear, opaque and black. I found some other things to put together and I should have some samples of finished products to take pictures of for you by tomorrow night. I get off work at 5, so I should be able to get some creativity in before my meeting at 7:30, and have some pictures for you afterwards. Do you have an e-mail you'd like me to send them to, or would you prefer through an lj comment like this ( ... )

Here are some links to the 4 earrings I made tonight. I hope you like them! Sorry about the wonky lighting. The ones without flash show the colors the truest, but the ones with flash show the detail the best ( ... )

Hi, just checking in with you here to make sure that you've gotten my e-mails this week with the owl earrings. I want to be sure to get them to you in time for the middle of the month, when you said you needed them.
