Your bridesmaids jewelry sets as gifts under $20

It's been 5 years since I began making the 3 styles of bridesmaids jewelry sets under $20 and today these are still of my most purchased sets.

They designed with a timeless style that still goes with most style dresses.

I am so happy to have made so many brides happy who have gifted these to their bridesmaids, thank you.

Reached over 2000 sales in my etsy stores!

WOHOO...

I couldn't believe it my two ETSY stores combined reached just over 2050 sales over the past few days !!!!!!!!!!! I was to have a sale at the 2000 mark to celebrate, but it went by so quickly and been so busy with custom orders, I had not been checking my stats.

Thank you to everyone who has supported my little online store, which started as a hobby of selling my excess hand made jewelry. I am so happy that I can help Brides give a gift hand made with love to their bridesmaids and flowergirls.

So to celebrate this 2000 sales milestone, I wish to offer a sale until October 1, 2016 in my Etsy stores:


Use coupon code 2000SALES at checkout for 30% off everything available in both shops! This includes listings that already have a discounts applied!

Thank you once again.

Simple Backdrops for Bridal Necklaces

A few months ago I was asked to make a custom backdrop for a bride and her bridesmaid. She asked for something simple to be able to attach to her wedding necklace and be able to remove it as well. I added a jump ring at the top of her backdrop chain so that she could insert the jump ring into the lobster clasp of her necklace and to remove, to just open the lobster clasp. and it would be able to slide out easily. 

I then made her and her bridesmaid these almost matching backdrops, as the bride's necklace had to have a bit more bling of course. 

Took a picture while I was making the simple backdrop for the bride's necklace to show her the progress and actual length, so that she could 'see' how it would fit with her dress.
