Hey girls,
just wanted to ask your opinions on these candidates for my key pendant from Julia,
or whether I should go for something closer to the Tiff''s fleur de lis one?
Anyone have any faves from these, thoughts?

thx Lori - that was standing out for me too, however it reminds me a bit of a loveheart - and I''m not
really a heart girl..
Do you think I should ask for more like the FDL design..?
 
It does kind of look like a heart. How about #2? I actually like them all.
 
Hi AJ,

I''m really drawn to the shape of the cut-outs in #2.
 
I like 2 & 4..4 does look like a heart tho..and I dig the cutouts on 2..but then I really like the fdl design too! Um, I say fdl or 2.
 
I like 2 or the Tiffany fleur. Hehe, I''d be horribly tempted to bezel a gemmie into the the key somewhere...hmm...might have to try that for a future project...
 
AJ 2 for me! I can''t wait to see how these turn out. I was going to get a Tiffany''s Key for my birthday but if this turns well I might just lemming it if you don''t mind

Thanks everyone for your thoughts!
I''m such a dork though - turns out these were the sketches for the previous client, and not specifically
for my project, Julia just forgot to mention that, lol..

So, she is working on my design options including the fdl soon - and seeing as my Fi, who *very rarely* gets involved in my jewellery stuff, actually pro-actively commented that he liked not only the keys in general but specifically the fdl ! I think I will follow his opinion, lol..

Thanks everyone that has commented, I''m sorry about the mixup

I promise to post the new options as they come.

MTG - I did consider having a gem or small diamond put into the key, but I wanted to keep this one really simple and classic. Like you, I may have a gemmy one made in the future - yum!

And Kate, of course you can love, be my guest!
Did you see the photo of the one Julia already finished? To me, it looks very nicely made - I can''t imagine the Tiff''s plain ones being anymore special, and we''re talking about hundreds of dollars difference, yanno?
I just do not get how Tiff''s can charge <$150 for a plain sterling chain, and Julia is charging ~$10 for exactly the same thing

, its just nuts!

here''s that pic of Julia''s one just for reference. Personally, I like her bail better too..

AJ, when is your wedding?

Lori
 
$150 v $10? Wow-talk about paying for the NAME!
 
I know right Packrat, its nuts huh?


Thanks Lori for the support - we don''t actually have a date set, and aren''t in much
of a hurry.
I think we will both finish Uni and work out career etc first (so probably another 2yrs or so).
We''ve known each other for over 10 yrs now, (since 15y/o), so another couple years isn''t an issue

Not jewellery but DF got me this (removable) decal for my laptop. Now I''ve turned my boring functional laptop into something pretty! (The picture is from the sellers stock pics, not mine). The seller is vinylwalldesign

This is my solitaire bangle made by Sally at Etsy. This picture is from Sally. I haven''t recieved it yet. I will post more pics/(hand shots) when I get it. I have started a thread about in SMTR which has couple more pics of the bangle.

OMG, that''s beautiful! How big is the diamond? I''ve been thinking of a gold bangle, I wanted one with rose cut diamonds set in a bezel. Do you have any other pictures of yours? I love it!

Thats a cool bangle. Any chance of a wrist shot?
 
Thanks freefly and innerkitten

The diamond is 0.4ct

I will post wrist shots when I have it (probably by the middle of next week). It is on the way now.
 
So my three gems are currently winging their way to Julia Kay Taylor, and with a bit of luck
the ring and my key pendant should be done in time for my B''day at the end of July

Yay! Can''t wait to see how they turn out!
 
Finally got my jewelry box from Duncan Woods

Awesome ltl, as you know I've been waiting to see this!

You got the koa, its very pretty, and I love the extra draw.

Are you happy with it? Isn't it cool how those spaces are just the right size for gem boxes, lol..

Thanks!

Yes I am very happy with it, and those spaces are the perfect size.
 
I''m glad you''re happy with it ltl, I still really enjoy mine. Happy belated b''day btw!


Oh, and Julia Kay Taylor has come up with an FDL sketch for my key pendant, which I thought looks
awesome so have authorized straight away

I think she did a great job of taking the Tiff''s one I liked, but "making it her own" and personalizing the design.

I am really excited to see this and my ring from her finished, lots of fun!

thanks goodsoul, I was really happy as soon as I saw the design, I think Julia nailed it.
We''re going to have it created with a couple different sizing rings, so it can be worn at varying lengths
dependant on outfit etc.

I''ve got a feeling I''ll get alot of wear out of this piece, which I''m stoked about.
 
Oh I LOVE the new design!!
