Ok, not doing this for profit, just in response to some MN'ers asking - so hopefully this isn't advertising.

But anyone who wants me to make a bracelet (or other jewellery) for them, can you post on here

God that was a quick reply!!! You're even better than coppertop!!!! Ok, sooth it is then. Can't get wholesale because I'd have to order more than 200 squids worth and the other stuff isn't very good value. But can do it for about 13 squid (might be under but I tend to overestimate so it won't be over) - how's that?

Sure? I honestly won't be at all put out if it's too much or you change your mind

Yes defo - it's a treat to mark the end of my uni course _ I achieved my goal and got 1 A14 for each semester.

Good for you gm!!! Down to real nitty gritty - do you want just the beads and clasp and nothing else, or silver findings either side that set the beads off? Hard to explain, hope YKWIM, I'll try and find a pic.

Ok, its not a good example but this is sort of what I mean. Obviously the gems wouldn't be spread out like that (unless you want), but you can see what I mean about findings either side.

By the way - have just found this . Its a nice bracelet but I have one q. Is my brain finally dissolving after too many hours of MN or has it been photographed on RICE???

OP posts:
gothicmama · 30/06/2004 13:11

WK Think it has been photographed on rice (odd). I think I prefer the first example but without the beads spread out so much - I want one I can wear alot so dangle bits may not be a good idea ( although can be useful for other things) am losing plot rapidly

wasn't meaning the second one as an example for yours, just couldn't believe it had been taken on RICE!!!! No dangly bits then, but you want silver bits too, not just the beads?

OP posts:
gothicmama · 30/06/2004 13:15

I think I would rather just have the beads than have silver bits between the beads. Is that ok? (thanks again)

wobblyknicks · 30/06/2004 13:17

That's absolutely fine gm!! Just checking what you wanted. Lastly (I think), have you got any preference on what clasp it should have or shall I choose? Sorry for asking you so many q's!!!

OP posts:
gothicmama · 30/06/2004 13:20

Wk that's ok - do you want to choose - I 'd quite like a pretty one or one that is secure - I don 't really mind tho it would b enice in away if choose it

I really don't mind at all - just didn't want to make you decide everything if you didn't want to. I'll get a couple of links in a sec to different types then it's up to you.

Wk thanks for the link and loved them now would like to add a witch as well please. Only one though! I will leave this up to you and your views of artistic merit what would look best and if it is a bit more expensive then my birthday is in August and I can ask my dh.

That'll be fine gf - I'll have a think about it and suggest a few ideas and how much they'd be.

Thanks Wk

gm - all my 'contacts' for findings (all 2 of them!!) have catalogues and no websites so I've had trouble finding a website with good pics on to show you examples .

OP posts:
gothicmama · 30/06/2004 20:59

don't worry I will trust your judgement WK
