What I Can Do for You

Making a special request isn’t something I plan to do when I start selling. But later on, after making so many and dealing with more customers, I found out that custom design is a necessary service for you.

These are the things I have done so far to custom to your ideas..

1. You might like the style but it’s not your favorite color: I would be more than happy to give you options of the hues.  Usually what works is you choose one of the color option you really want, and I manage to match the rest of the complexion.

My friend Jeny request to have the below Celtic earrings on this post in Topaz instead of Vert.   I love how it turned out honestly and never have thought to have this color combination put together. so, Thank’s Jen!

2.  “One is not enough, I want the matching necklace/bracelet/earrings that goes with it”: Still on Jeny, she works in an office environment where everybody is expected to wear business casual, so a variety pendant could go so conveniently with her formal outfit. So here it is!  She can wear it just the pendant with her own white gold chain necklace, it drops down perfectly a little bit above her clevage and it’d hang so cute inside her formal jacket.  Or wear both earrings and pendant while going to a party.

Hera also had somewhat the same idea, she just absolutely love Dusty Pearl earrings from this post and want me to make a matching necklace. She wore it to her daughter’s graduation (she’s graduating from pre-school by the way) with her violet outfit, spot the photo on her facebook. Absolutely stunning!

3. “I like this style in that color”:  You probably already notice that Jeny really know what she wants as far as designs and style. It is as if she design her own.  I love to listen to my customers because with that I most of the time get more ideas to develop.  This time she love the idea of two pendant dropping down like this style, but want to have the crystal of  Green Stupa (the second photo from this post) And this is how it turned out. She loves it!

4. “I just love your earrings, but it’s way too long for me”: It’s alright. I can make it shorter.  Like this one below, the original length is 8 cm.

As per request, I shorten it to 5 cm. Actually it turned out better!

5. You might have a dress but not sure how to accessorize it:  Maybe you have traditional sari, cheong sam, or kebaya, or even too plain party dress to wear to a special occasion. Bring it on, I’ll be more than happy to work something out for you.

Rosary Pendant

Still on the Rosary topic.. I am sharing you my best seller Y necklace favorite of all time..  Below are the sarang (metal ball with hole texture) and pearl combination in Magenta. Good thing about this pendant is that you can separate it from the strand necklace and replace it with your favorite white gold necklace.

Starting off with the sarang design, then indigo blue, then olive, the same styles with different color and crystals combination.  It moves forward as the personable requests start to come in. Now the last is black and silver a request from Dany and Ratih, this is also my favorite from above all.

Black Rosary

I had an idea from my friend, Mela, to make her a black rosary long necklace. I showed her a couple of serious rosary I browsed on the internet and none of it fits her style.  She doesn’t want anything with prayer points and counting beads. So I guess what you want is just a black Y long necklace (at least it’s how me and my friends calls it). So here it is…

The length drops down a little bit below your belly button, so yes you can twist them so it is shorter.   Or have a request to shorten it to 45 or 50 cm so it drops down to your chest.  I add more fashionable black and white pearl, This necklace is bigger and heavier to wear, with more color and fuller style.  The black diamond shape at the end of the necklace is a black handmade glass beads I bought in Bali last year.

I have posted the photo here on my facebook so not only Mela could make a choice but also the other girls.

Bracelet Evolution

I had made this in the past for myself. It never occur to me at once that I would have anyone liking this. but after four evolution. I am convinced.

One time I wore this above bracelet to the office, that’s right! I wasn’t even sure why I would wear something aggressive like this to work, which later on I found out why: so I can show off my unique bracelet. And that very same day a colleague of mine asked me if I make this on my own and whether I sell them and if have other color option for the style..  So anyway, I made another one with different color: Amber. Just so I can have two hues, cold and warm.

An order came after the other, and I got bored of making the same bracelet. So I change the amber 8mm crystals with reddish black (the red just don’t appear too strongly in this photo).

And just recently the blacker purple to the lighter purple. The color is the trend of this season I notice.

So after that day, I decided that maybe it should go the other way around. Because I plan and think of how and when to wear it, it might look so together, thus attract lookers. Cheers!

Syl’s

Really having fun making old designs, I do! These four jewelries, one bracelet and three earrings, are made with passion.  They are Syl’s order. Hei girl, it’s all ready for pick up ;)

The top left, Cobalt, are my last piece for now.  I won’t be able to make them until I am not sure when, Lately it’s been hard to find natural beads teardrop shape in this color this size.  What makes it harder is that you can only make something with them so much because there is no guarantee that it will be available next time you want them. Different from manufactured beads or crystals, even, you can just order more and often it is available for bulk purchase. Natural beads can’t.

The down right is my super gorgeous simple bracelet.  Along with that, I have one pair of earrings I made just to match the bracelet,

The earrings’ length are 3 cm.  The top pearl beads is 8mm in diameter, and 6mm on each on the three underneath.  No it’s not new, I have been having them for a while. Just gotta show it off, again!

Are these ok?
