Bridal Party Custom Order of Vintage Chandelier Glass Earrings

boxed and ready to be shipped to Nikki

I just finished boxing these lovely vintage faceted glass chandelier pieces with fresh water pearls on sterling silver ear hooks. I added silk flowers to the cute boxes made especially for my terrific customer Nikki. She'll be pleasantly surprised when she opens up her special package.

each pair of earrings are in their own silk pouches
one of Nikki's wedding colors

These are the perfect earrings for a romantic wedding. This is from my "Something Old Something New" line. Vintage always adds a bit of the lovely past to a bride's bright and wonderful future with her future hubbie. So romantic.

Nikki ordered these lovelies for her entire bridal party. Lucky friends! She's so thoughtful. They're going to love them.

As other customers had already bought several, her order pretty much wiped out my collection of vintage pieces for the earrings. Luckily, I was able to find another source and they're on the way over the Pacific Ocean to little ole me in Hawaii. I'll have lots more to create these beauties.

vintage lovelies all ready to be packaged for gift giving

I'm planning to create some matching necklaces to go along with these earrings. They're going to be sooo pretty. I just know.

I've been doing a lot of custom orders and several from brides, Nikki being one of them. Working on these bridal pieces is especially "happy" work. I love packaging them for the brides to give away as gifts. Nikki's wedding colors are brown, cream, sage, and purple. Lovely colors which I was able to use in the packaging.

Tonite, I'm finishing up another bridal custom order. And I'm currently working with another bride on a custom order for matching pair of earrings and bracelet for her flower girl. How sweet.

I enjoy working with my customers to design a piece that will make them happy. Custom order involves communication back and forth between myself and my customer. Before I start on the actual piece, I will create a mock design and send photos for approval and provide a quote. After approval, I list the item in my shop reserved for that person. Upon full payment, I start working on the piece. All my customers who have ordered a custom piece have been sooo happy with their pieces. That makes me happy.

If you like my style, my "eye', then please check out my shop---Stacy's Designs 88
and (Update May 2009) my new Bridal Shop--- Blue Lovebirds. If you'd like a custom piece, feel free to Convo me.

One-of-a-Kind Jewelry for Weddings & Brides

I was looking at all the different types of bridal jewelry and decided that there was a need for some pretty and one-of-a-kind designs.

Last year when I was shopping for my bridal wear, most of the jewelry for both the bride and her bridal party looked all the same. I designed my own bridal jewelry using the necklace that my husband's late mother had given me right before she passed away. It turned out to be very beautiful. It really matched my one-of-a-kind wedding gown made by Hawaii's own Asian themed designer Anne Namba.

I know there are those brides who want something very simple. However, there are many brides nowadays who want to stand out from the crowd and look elegant and one-of-a-kind. I'm going to start a line of bridal jewelry to fit that niche. Of course, I will also create pieces for those that want to wear just a little something something.

Here's a new piece (see above photo) that I've been working on to give you a taste of the things to come. I made this before and a friend bought it. It takes awhile to create this because everything, and I mean everything, is done by hand. Once it's completed, I will put it in my Etsy shop.

If you know any brides, please tell them about my Etsy Shop---stacysdesigns88.etsy.com
I really appreciate all your referrals.

Please leave a comment about your opinion on my newest creation.

Thanks ;)

Update: 10:35pm Wednesday 3/5/08---I finished the necklace. Please take a look in my Esty Shop stacysdesigns88.etsy.com
