Hello everyone! Welcome!

What do I have to offer?
I specialize in one of a kind, custom orders for you, your bridal party, or anyone else you want to give a little sparkle to. Items can be created using your design ideas (via inspiration pictures or drawings) or based on previously designed items shown in this thread.

How much will this cost?
I can make items as cheap or as expensive as you decide. Yes, cheaper pieces might mean using alternative materials, but I promise the outcome will surpass the cost and leave everyone thinking you spent more. I will work with your budget to create the pieces you want. If I cannot make an item in a specific price range, I will provide alternative design ideas to help fit within your budget.

What materials are used?
Materials are not limited. I will use anything to create the design you want. Materials can include semi-precious gemstones; Swarovski and Czech crystals; glass and acrylic; sterling silver and silver plated; pewter; copper; gold plated and gold; and basically anything that just looks pretty.

What experience do I have?
I have been designing and making jewelry since 1992 and over the years have designed jewelry for proms, college formals, weddings, and auctions. I own a small, jewelry and gift shop in Belvidere, NJ with my mother called Nanuk's Igloo (http://nanuksigloo.com/). We have been in business since June 2008; however, I have been selling online and at craft shows since April 2006. I recently branched out to create my second line of jewelry under the name of Rebecca James Jewelry. Visit me on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/?ref=home#%21/pages/Rebecca-James-Jewelry/145463195539?ref=ts) or check out my pre-made items on Etsy (http://www.etsy.com/shop/RebeccaJamesJewelry).

Design Samples:
There are so many pictures of past orders on MLW. Posted below are items purchased by my wonderful customers (and friends!) along with their comments or testimonials. I also have pictures up on the Rebecca James Jewelry Facebook page and the Nanuk's Igloo (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Belvidere-NJ/Nanuks-Igloo-Custom-Jewelry/7462241057?v=photos&ref=ts) Facebook page.

I would love to have a necklace with a bird pendant. If the necklace could be glass beads, that would be great. Do you have anything like that? :)

Becki

I don't have anything, but I'm sure I can. What kind of bird do you have in mind? Send me details :) Becki@rebeccajamesjewelry.com

Becki made the jewelry for my bridal party and everyone loved it! She was super awesome to work with, for both myself and my bridesmaids - who I let be in touch on their own about the design. Becki knew my price range and made everyone wonderful jewelry which they can wear again and again!
Here is my WDS (http://www.mustloveweddings.com/forums/showthread.php?t=11708) with lots of pictures, and here are a few more pictures of other pieces I have from Becki's collection.

just wanted to move our custom order plotting over here....
right now we're looking at this as our inspiration:
http://ny-image2.etsy.com/il_430xN.142523738.jpg

buuuut with the following changes:
necklace -- sea opals stay the same. small beads become multi-colored. end-caps become cool silver spacers (these (http://ep.yimg.com/ca/I/artbeads_2115_2581179024) are current top choice)
earrings -- chain instead of top bead so its one sea opal and one color bead with a longer chain (so it doesn't detract from my rocking scarf)

did i get it all?

and here is the outfit (well, a close up of the components so you can see the colors... printed flowy skirt, shiny black boatneck top, silver ballet flats)
http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs183.snc4/37478_10100187973925560_1910319_58433853_1189804_n .jpg

as you can see, the skirt is a little less than "cocktail" but its the best i've got that i'll be comfortable in, so i need to make sure the necklace goes with it but also helps dress it up

Becki
07-23-2010, 06:43 AM
I think that was everything :yes:
Ok, for colors... green, watermelon pink, orange, yellow, red? Are those the colors in the skirt?

Mel
07-23-2010, 09:49 AM
yup, those are pretty much the skirt colors... if you wanna round it out with blue and purple, i'm ok with that too... i feel like they are such small beads it doesn't matter if its exact since there are lots of colors...
what do you think?

oh, and do the color bead on the earrings watermelon pink... i have more pink options in cotton scarves so that'll coordinate with the head betetr.

Becki
07-23-2010, 09:59 AM
Will do. Do you want to pick a few colors or do you want each bead a different color with no repeats?

Mel
07-23-2010, 10:03 AM
oooh, each a different could be fun!

Mel
07-23-2010, 10:03 AM
though then i think maybe it would be fun to totally change the earrings and do a few chains each with a different colored small bead...

Becki
07-23-2010, 10:32 AM
I like that :yes:

I need length on both necklace and earrings :aok:

Mel
07-23-2010, 10:40 AM
2" after the hook for the earrings....
22" for the necklace

Mel
07-24-2010, 11:09 PM
in re: to cost... would it be useful to make part of the necklace chain instead of using the stones all around? would it still look good?

Becki
07-24-2010, 11:20 PM
You read my mind! I was going to ask you about that alternative after Shabbat.

Mel
07-24-2010, 11:22 PM
well, we do share a brain ;)
