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.

Charmed, I'm sure!

I can add charms to whatever you like! Letter charms would be an additional $2. That's easy. But what if, say, you love fleur de lis and sea shells and cowboy boots and you'd just love to have some of them on your piece? Lemme know, I'll price it out for you and then I'll let you know how much extra it would be.

Gray Doves


These are the epitome of lovely refinement. Gray freshwater pearls. Simple. Elegant. I made them for Ryan's classy Grandma. And then I liked 'em. So... I made myself a pair, too.


But I had to add a few more drops. Because though I'm a lady (at least, enough of a lady to wear these lovely things!), I like me a looooong earring. These go with greys and blacks and silvers... a very versatile piece. Loving it!

$6.50 for the short
$7.50 for the long


And I have now added a bracelet to this set... with just a HINT of crystal...




Split

Ok, look. I'm a therapist and I have diagnosed this pair of earrings to have a split personality. The color is so clean and calm and beautiful and fresh. And then they've got this nice, long lean line. I feel like if you look at 'em long enough, you'll feel like you've had a day at the spa!
But then, I look at 'em again and I see a party. I see these long, bouncy little round balls, just dying to be taken out on the dance floor to have some fun.
What do you see?


Well, even though I've diagnosed them with a split personality, I still like 'em. A lot. Whatever they are.



And, another example of "All You Gotta Do Is Ask." You like what you see, but wish you could switch oh, say, silver to gold? *Snap* Done!




$6

Breezy

These are intended to be worn in a slight breeze. I'm not talking hurricane or anything. Just enough so your hair swirls around them and they swing slightly. Oh yeah. They'll be gorgeous.
These are relaxed earrings. They're flexible. They'll be what you want them to be and they won't fight you about it. But they're big earrings. They're earrings that say, "I'm not afraid of wearing earrings." Big, lovely Mother of Pearl ovals. Yes, please!




$6

Off


I like these turquoise chunks because, well... they're a little off. :)

Creme de la Creme




Kinda pretty, huh? Email about availability. I'm not sure whether I could get these beads again or not.

Baby Mine

Yup, my first foray into baby bracelets. I made this one for my sweet baby Leah's blessing... and I love it! Darling teeny tiny freshwater pearls complemented by clear, sparkling crystals. I plan to make more, in other colors. I'll let you know when I do. (But if you want me to do something specific for you, in specific colors, naturally! Let me know!)







Come now. Let's just be real with each other. SOOOOOOOO CUTE!
PS-As far as pricing on this one, if you're interested. I used sterling silver on the chain and clasp, because I feel like little baby bracelets are things you're going to want to keep-and wouldn't it be sweet if her daughter could wear her same blessing bracelet. Anyway, so baby bracelets will be $12.50 for infant size. Add a dollar for toddler size (13.50), add another dollar for little girl size (14.50). Still a good deal, if you google other baby bracelets. Go on, google it. I'll be here when you get back. :)

Night Out

She said, "I want 'em big, bold and chunky. And red."
I said, "Yes ma'am!"

This was a completely custom order, and I think we've hit our mark.
