Weed's Beads: Antique Raspberry-yup, you guessed it. Sold out.

Prices

I'm into a good deal. Like, really into a good deal. And I just wouldn't feel good about myself if I wasn't offering you a good deal. And part of offering you the best price is that I usually don't use sterling silver. I like it-who doesn't?-but it's spendier. BUT, I do love using it, so if you'd like it on your piece, let me know and I'll gladly substitute sterling silver and let you know the price difference on that particular piece. Usually, it's about $2 extra per item.

And I do a flat 3 bucks for shipping. Buy as much as you like-still just 3 smackers.

Cheers!

Let's Talk Custom

Anything is possible! If you see something you like, but wish I had used a red bead instead of a pink one, let me know! I can switch things up and make it just right for you. Or, you've been thinking that golly, you sure wish you had a neon pink pair of earrings but just can't find what you're looking for in the store? While I can't promise, let's talk about it and maybe I can make just what you've been hoping for.

And do you know what I love best? I love to make something specially and specifically for you. I've had a number of orders where they said to me something along the lines of, "Hey, my sister is young, funky and loves bright colors" or, "My friend is modest and sweet and loves purple" and then I try to translate those adjectives into an earring. Then, I think it's cool that you can say to her, "Hey, I told the "jeweler" all about how you are this this and this, and these earrings are what she came up with." It's like you're wearing a jewelry incarnation of all your best qualities, or something. Anyway... Or, if you find a picture of something else you love, give me a shout, maybe I can duplicate it. (I'll definitely let you know if I can't.)

Ok, but the tricky thing with making a custom piece is that usually, in order to keep my prices low, I shop clearance. But if you want something very specific, chances are, I won't be able to find it on clearance. It's the nature of the beast. So, if you want a custom item, that's great! And I'm delighted to do it for you! But the price might not be exactly as cheap as my norm. You get what I'm sayin' here? Obviously, I'll still try to get you the best deal possible! Okay. Glad I got that off my chest.

Antique Raspberry-yup, you guessed it. Sold out.

Ok, maybe when you get right down to it, there isn't much that's "antique" about this set. Except one of my favorite things-and that is that it's made with Rose Gold, which gives it a fabulous, unique flair. This set was designed as per the specifications of the mother of the groom. Dainty, sparkly and in the bride's colors of raspberry and black. She sent me a picture of a necklace she wanted to imitate and viola!
