So, what have I been doing in this interlude? Lots of custom pieces! (And working my day job, training for a few runs, and trying to read a good book now and then) Here are some pictures of recent orders.
A silver and blue necklace inspired by
this necklace that I wear all the time.
Matching beaded rosaries made in birthstones for a group of cousins including October, January, September, March, and August.
A close up of the August rosary.
Matching birthstone rosaries for the cousins' Mamas- June, September, and April
All the rosaries- kids and adults- coordinated with the same Our Father beads and matching metal components.
Last for this post is an itty-bitty baby bracelet to celebrate Baby K's baptism. Light pink pearls, sterling silver, and ruby birthstones. You can barely tell in this picture, but the lobster clasp is detailed with a heart and attaches to a grow-with-me chain so that this miniature bracelet will still fit K as she grows.
I enjoy the collaborative process of creating custom pieces and developing a design specific for someone. It makes the design process more challenging and more rewarding when the piece is completed. Have you ever had a piece of jewelry custom made? Was it for you or a gift for someone? Why did you chose custom design over already made?
