randomcreative in a wedding

Do you remember this custom cuff I made as well as the bridesmaid/flower girl order from the same bride?  She connected with me on Facebook today so she could share her wedding pictures with me.

She has tons of wonderful pictures, but I picked a few where you can see my bracelets.

I love the whole color scheme and the flower hair pieces.

Here's the bride with the cuff that started this whole order.  I love seeing how all of the colors came together.  The bride did an awesome job finding shades in my work that matched her wedding colors.

The green tights rock like none other.

So much fun!  This totally made my day. :)

blog giveaway decision, second holiday 2010 special

Remember my post about Grace's color choices for her blog giveaway earrings?  I ended up making two different versions of the earring.  She decided which one she likes better tonight.  Does anyone else have a preference?

The first part of my holiday 2010 specials is my holiday sale section.  I will continue to add more items throughout November and December.  I launched the second part of my holiday 2010 specials tonight.

Every order from Nov. 8-Dec. 18 will receive a FREE pair of these Christmas button earrings.  If you'd like additional pairs or button post earrings in custom colors, please let me know.

Rochester, sea glass pendants

As some of you know, I went to Rochester, MN this past weekend.

The weather was gorgeous.  Here's a shot of us with what may be our future home's skyline in the background.

I finished my sea glass pendant order when I got back.

The buyer is very pleased with everything so I'll send the pendants on their way later this week.  I'll have more details about Grace's blog giveaway earrings soon.  I'll also have my 2010 holiday special for Etsy up and running this week so stay tuned.
