Bri's Custom Jewelry!

A few weeks ago a friend of mine contacted me and asked if I could review some of her jewelry. I have to be honest, I was immediately underwhelmed by the idea. Excited that she would consider me, but my expectations for the jewelry was not terribly high. Although I had seen pictures she posted which were beautiful, I assumed the pieces would be like any other made at home jewelry, cheap and almost disposable. Well, a few days after our initial conversation a lovely little box of wonderment arrived on my doorstep, filled with the most lovely, well crafted jewelry. I was immediately taken back by how adorably packaged it was. The box was filled with white tissue paper covered in black polka dots. Upon opening the tissue paper a lovely sent drifted out. I don't know what it was but it was nice, I really liked it. Under the tissue paper I found a Thank you card with a sweet personal note from Sabrina, thanking me for giving her stuff a try. Then came the fun part. Three pairs of earrings and two lovely bracelets. They were all in zip lock baggies, affixed to adorable glittery cards. Aren't they cute? I have gotten so many compliments on these earrings. Everyone that sees them loves them and wants a pair!

I just love everything she sent me. I was shocked at the high quality of the jewelry, and the care she took when making it. Everything was extremely well made and heavy duty. I actually bought some jewelry making supplies myself recently and opted for the cheapest materials I could find. So I know that the materials she has used here are extremely high quality, and will last the test of time. The pair shown in the first picture are my favorite, they have hearts with wings at the very bottom and are covered in the cutest little silver and pink dangle beads. They also have a row of rhinestones hanging separately. I have worn these nearly every day since I got them. The second pair shown are also freaking AWESOME! They are also dangle earrings with skull and cross bone charms dangling from chains and have pink and black feathers! If you are into the feather earring trend, you have to get a pair of these! She will custom make anything you want, all you have to do is tell her what you like. http://www.facebook.com/BrisCustomJewelry?ref=ts

This next pair just makes me happy and sad all at the same time. Another pair of dangles, with pink beads and tiny hearts, hanging next to another row of rhinestones. I wanted these to be my favorite. They are SO pretty! Unfortunately they are a little too heavy for my tender ears and I just can't wear them all day. Believe me I tried, but the only downside to high quality is the weight. I did contact Bri and ask her if they could be shortened, which she said they can. I haven't shortened them yet, but I definitely plan on it. I love these and want to wear them so badly!

Here is a pic of me wearing the first pair of earrings. This are SO adorable. Perfect size and length, I just love them! http://www.facebook.com/BrisCustomJewelry?ref=ts

Next there were two bracelets. OMG, I just adore these. I put them on and have only taken them off to shower and sleep for the last week and a half. They are lovely, heavy duty and also very well made. The beads are glass, not cheap plastic. They are also stretchy, so they can fit anyone. You can see from the pictures how amazing they are, vibrant colors and creatively strung. I will probably wear these until they fall apart. Although, I can't imagine that will be anytime soon!
