Exceeded all my expectations - and then some!

[LD]

Awwwww TL and Chrono I''m so glad you two found this thread! TL pop over to the UK and I''ll let you wear it for a while

Chrono, I wouldn''t hesitate in using Sally for custom work. I''ve been super thrilled with both projects she''s made for me. The craftmanship on this pendant is awesome. I honestly can''t find fault with it.

All - I meant to mention earlier, Sally won''t copy other people''s work so if you were to send her, for example, a Tiffany design, she''d be able to take inspiration from it but it won''t be a replica.

I LOVE IT!!

Can you also post the original photo please?

 

[MichelleCarmen]

Beautiful! How fun. . .(I need to head on over to etsy right now!)

 

[Dreamer_D]

It looks just like a snowflake! I love it!

 

[Fly Girl]

Beautiful, beautiful pendant, LD! I really enjoy your projects!

Wear it in good health.

 

[Gypsy]

Thank you honey, what a lovely compliment.

I''ve been thinking of your pendant since you posted it, and checking in on it''s pics. I''m wondering if Sally can do it with colored stones. Like a Fall pendant in orange, yellow, brown, stones... maybe a peridot too. All in yellow gold. It would look like a deco stained glass pendant.

You should consider that as a brooch as well.

It's so versatile, as well as gorgeous!!

 

[glitterata]

Wow, I love those angular petals! What beautiful work!

 

[freefly]

Wow, the workmanship on that piece is just amazing! Sally and her team really can make anything. Wear it in good health!

 

[Kelli]

How incredibly pretty! I love it!

 

[CravingDiamonds]

I have never seen anything like that before. I think it is stunning and lucky you that you get to wear it around your neck!

 

[TravelingGal]

That is striking indeed!!

 

[Lovinggems]

It''s lovely and unusual, my DH really likes it too.

LD- What an unusual, lovely piece!

I am so impressed you sent your diamonds to her! I am too nervous to send my spess, so I''ll have to get it set here. But this thread made me even more excited for my Sally ring

 

[tradergirl]

Sally is the best kept secret on PS, not for much longer though I don''t think. I sent a couple of oec''s off to her to put in the lotus setting for some ear studs and have a couple more custom projects in the works with her. I object to being charged high four figures for a bezel set eternity ring with a little milgrain around it - I''ll take my chances with collecting the diamonds myself and the mail in Thailand to get the same ring for less than half of that.

LD,

Your pendant is just beautiful!!

As a side note, thank you for posting about Sally here! It was your illusion set OMC ring that prompted me to contact Sally. So, thank you!

TG,

I think you''re right. The secret is out now. lol. I wonder how many other PS-ers have projects with Sally now!

 

[mariedtiger]

Oh this pendant is unique, gorgeous and just one of a kind!!! I love it, you have daring and great taste. Thank you for sharing!!!

 

[loveloveloveit]

BizouMom, Maisie, SanDiegoLady, princessplease, tigian, MissGotRocks, sarap333, Tuckins1, D&T and vespergirl thank you all for taking the time to comment. I''m so glad that you like my new baby!

tyty333 - that is actually my neck in those shots because I have got it (and haven''t taken it off since opening the box)! I struggle with neck shots because husband can''t take a photo if he tries and so I''m limited to looking in the mirror and doing it that way.

Packrat - it''s funny but I''ve always concentrated on rings! Pendants have always come second and earrings, well, I had long hair until a week ago so they were hidden from view so I never really spent much on them either. Think I''m going to have to rethink earrings though!

cellantani - thank you so much for the huge compliment. I do love designing jewellery and tend to let my imagination run wild! I''ve had a number of disasters over the years where things haven''t quite turned out as I thought but with Sally I''ve found that she really listens and gives me exactly what I want. I''m so fussy so this is incredibly important to me. I love the way she also makes suggestions but doesn''t mind if you take them on board or not. I''ll be using her again VERY soon! In fact, there''s a project on it''s way to her as I type tee hee!

Gypsy - I''ve always adored your pendant. It''s just the sort of design I go for too. I''m glad you approve.

gemgirl - do you mean a wire? If so, what a great suggestion. I hadn''t thought of that. Thank you.

LovingDiamonds, I was thinking of all of my rigid necklaces. A neck wire would work, but also an 4mm Omega or a white gold mesh cord. If I can, I''ll take pictures for you to show you what I mean.

I have seen neck wires on line here and there, and they''re not too expensive. It''s just a different look.

 

[LadyBlue]

Very pretty and very unique!!! I love it

 

[geckodani]

That is too cool!!!!
