Custom Bridesmaid Jewelry

A customer found my shop on etsy and liked my designs so much that she requested two custom made bridemaids sets of earrings and necklaces for her wedding in October. It is always a exciting for me to make custom items because it is great to see a design develop and to see someone so happy with something made just for them.

Let me walk you through the process to come to the final design.

Step 1: The customer liked two designs in my shop but she needed the main color to be pink with accents of grey and orange. She sent me a couple of photos of the bridesmaids dresses and the bouquets. (Below are the two original designs from my shop):

Step 2: I send her photo samples of the beads that could be used as the main bead.

Step 3: She chose the middle ruby colored briolette. I started making the earrings and after changing the colors once the customer was happy.

Step 4: The necklace design was based on the same beads as the earrings and only took one try to get it just how the customer wanted it:

Step 5: Final design was listed in my shop for the customer to purchase:
