Sandra, bless her heart, didn't want me to be prize-less. Look what she made me instead:
 Aren't these gorgeous?  I think what I like best is that they are so very me. That's the great thing about custom jewelry - it's so personal.  What's even more awesome is that I only told Sandra a color - burgundy - and she did the rest.  Now, I don't know if she reads everyone that well, or if she just hit the nail on the head with me because she knows me, but either way, I was really amazed at how much I identify with these earrings.

Get 'em for yourself, for gifts, just for fun ... you'll be delighted with your purchase.
Disclaimer: Sandra didn't know I was writing this blog when she sent me the earrings, and she would have sent them to me even if I didn't write a blog, and I would love Sandra even if she didn't send me earrings. I think that covers all the FTC bases ...

I am so glad you like them, Tristi. I always worry when I do a custom piece whether the person will like it or think it is lame.
For those people that I do not know, I ask a lot of questions about color, size, likes/dislikes, interest.... Or I base the design on a piece of their clothing, favorite painting, garden...
When I make a piece, usually the beads, or the bangle tells me what it wants to be, just like your beads did. I was out of burgandy beads so I went to the store and these called your name. I had something in mind, but when I got home and opened my kit, this is what the beads said they wanted to be.
