Customization: Narresh

I made bracelets for Narresh a few years ago, always chunky ones for his girlfriend. This time, he contacted me again for a new set, to be gifted to his girlfriend-turned-wife! Congratulations :) 

He requested for bright and warm colours, and I added a house charm to symbolize their new home life together. Flower charm and flower beads for a touch of nature to it.

Bluet- Modifications

The Bluet design has been very well received, so much so that I grabbed all remaining stock of the blue flower cabochon. I usually prefer variety instead of quantity, but in this case, loading up on blue flowers was the wiser choice. 

But, what if you fancy this design yet you don't want blue? Giri, Jesz and others have requested it to be made in different colours, here are the results :)

In turquoise green:

In red and purple:

In pink:

Which is your pick? All of them or none?

Beaded Bracelets - Xin Wei & Malar

Beaded bracelets are always fun to make, you can either fill up the chain with one colour in a variety of shades or embellish it with multiple shades. Let's have a look at both options-

•••

Xin Wei went with just pink, but it's definitely not dull especially when this sweet colour family is available in a multitude of shades. We have got fuchsia, plum, lilac, rose & peach all in one. Surrounded by the charms is the enameled gift box charm, also in pink, of course!

••••••••

Malar, on the other hand, wanted hers to be more varied.

She really liked the Mawar flower, but wanted it in the form of a bracelet. So, I made this with the purple & olive flower as guidance first, then filled up the rest with complementary turquoise, fern & forest green.

There really is no wrong way to do these bracelets, just go with the colour(s) of your choice. 

Have it your way :)

Lone Pine- Modifications

Fancy a rainbow set for your friends or just go sweet in pink for your bridesmaids?

Customization: Jessica

Hi! I'm currently going through some old emails and finding a treasure trove of customized pieces that I have never shared here. Rather than keeping the photos to myself, I thought might as well upload them here on the off chance that some of these may give you an inspiration hit! Or if you like these as it is, just contact me at craftedbymei@gmail.com to discuss :)

Originally made for Jessica- 

striking colours of electric blue & purple for the first piece, and bright fuchsia offset by lighter rose piece in the second bracelet.
