The Latest and Greatest

I have spent about two weeks working on a custom jewelry order for my Etsy shop (Music Momma Arts).  It was my first custom order for jewelry that wasn't all based on something I'd already made and it was quite an experience.  Our communications were, of course, all via Etsy conversations and I quickly learned that a picture truly IS worth a thousand words. 

So anyway, the bracelet was fairly easy to do (as soon as I found the instructions again).  When I finished that, the customer asked if I'd make a necklace as well.  "Piece of cake," I thought.  HA!!!  Here is the first necklace, but it wasn't what the customer was looking for.  I'm adding one more layer to it, but I ran out of rings. After I finish, it will go up for sale as well.


(FYI, that black stand is about 6" tall, so that's not quite "to scale.")

After some Google pictures were shared, here is the finished product.


Once my creative juices got flowing, I wanted to add some earrings. (More selling power, right?)  Two different designs are shown here, but then I was told that she can't wear heavy earrings.



So in the end, I'm sending this completed set and adding in some super light earrings on the house.  Hopefully she'll love them!


And that, my friends, is two posts in one week. Huzzah!
