sneak peek: charm and pendant sets for 2012

I took photos of my first glass/metal charm sets for my new line.  I started working on my initial ideas for this line back in the summer, so it's hard to believe that I'm really going to start getting these new listings up in a week or so.

Most of my wrap bracelets/necklaces will include one charm, but I will have separate sets of charms for sale.  I will definitely get this custom initial set up first.  Please click on the photos to see larger versions of them.

 

 

The large pendant is glass, and the letter charms are sterling silver.  Most of my charm sets will have silver plated charms to keep the cost down, but I wanted to do sterling silver for the letters.

I also photographed my flower charm set.

 

 

Most of my metal charms will be silver.  I really liked that little bronze flower so I picked it up for this initial set.  I ordered a bulk set of silver flowers for future sets.

My next sets will be: leaves (surprise, right?) and beach/tropical.  I'm also working on a heart set for Valentine's Day.

Future set ideas include: music, pets, cross/religious, dotted/circles, stripes, ballet/dancing, snowflakes, Christmas, other seasonal/holiday sets, kids, buttons, celestial, and books/reading.  Some of these ideas are coming together more easily than others.

I'm debating including a photo in the charm set listings with at least one of the charms on a sterling silver chain.  I may just photograph a few charms with the chain for the separate chain listing, though.

Feedback on the photos and set ideas would be much appreciated.  If there's anything else that you'd like to see, let me know.
