Earlier this week I received a bridal request for an order of 5 single pearl necklaces as gifts to her bridesmaids using green pearls. She is getting married in 2 weeks time, so I'm made a rush order and sent it off today.. Here is the before and after:
Over the past few weeks, I have received many requests for mostly pearl bridesmaid sets and personalized flower girl bracelet sets in various colors and variations. It has been such a busy time that when making the sets I didn't take pictures of those stunning sets! Earlier I took some time to take pictures of the colors that are now excess pearls available in my storage box, ready to be made for your wedding bridal party... If you are after color this season, send me a message for your custom order: rishkajohnson (at) gmail (dot) com.
Here are two pictures that I managed to take while making up orders in the past month:
I haven't made this silver leaf lariat necklace for a while and then received 2 requests for the necklace and decided to make them again.. As usual they are made to order and may take up to 2 days to complete.
As with all other pieces made by me, this necklace is made using Rhodium plated over brass and is nickel free, therefore great for those with sensitive skins.
It has been a while since my last post, having a 1 year son, 7 year old daughter around and working part-time as a computer programmer (2-3 days a week) has kept me quite busy, along with keeping up on the daily orders of bridesmaid, flowergirl and jewellery for RBJohnson Designs. On top of all of this during May I completed a Certificate IV in Small Business Management, which was something I had wanted to complete for a long time . The course is usually a 6 month full-time tertiary level course and I had RPL(Recognistion of Prior Learning) the coursework as I have some small business experience. I am extremely happy and grateful that my husband was able to look after the kids and manage food, while I attended the evening classes over the past few weeks! The course is designed to help manage principles and practice of running a small business, as well as financial planning, legal and business requirements and customer services. Having a mentoring one-on-one during the course helped me look at the actions I need to forward RBJohnson Designs, workout a real cash flow spreadsheet and Profit and Loss Statement. So will keep you posted on actions completed ..
