Customization: Aida / Elisha

Back in late January, Elisha engaged me for a special prepaid package for her girlfriends.

Here's how it works: 

On Valentine's Day, I sent a surprise email to her 3 friends asking them to pick anything from the blog or customize a design, the idea behind this is Elisha has been wanting to gift them one of my works but she wanted only pieces they would truly love, hence she suggested giving them the free reign to pick & choose, with Elisha bearing all costs involved.

Each necklace/bracelet was also posted to them individually.

I am most honoured to be a part of this, especially these 3 ladies were wonderful to work with, two of them picked ready designs while Aida made this necklace with some input from Elisha :)

A combo of Chrysalis with colours of black & white from here.

Necklace length to be long and 'A' charm added to the side.

Customization: Farwie

Very cool pieces customized by Farwie again! ;)

Concept is similar to the one she made in 2010, this time getting them for her 2 BFFs (who happen to be family friends she has known since birth!)

Farwie gave me detailed descriptions of the 2 girls, including their fashion styles & favourite things, read on ;)

RED

A very fair skinned girl who likes to stack up on bangles for hippy look.

Basically a trendsetter who looks good in anything she puts on, Farwie decided on a red theme for her.

Charms chosen are all very personal, she's musically talented, likes cats & dolphins and that handbag for the shopping sessions they have always indulged in!

Brilliant black dazzles with amethysts & violets in this piece, all beads used are either glass or chinese crystals, with a silver night Swarovski heart right in the center :)

Redwood

Back in April a reader asked what was the colour of the pearl, a wiki search led me to pick Redwood as the closest shade, what a cute name!

Note too the flower cabochon hanging off a ribbon link! ;)
