Order done :)

So i made this simple(quiet minimal) pendant towards the end of last yr to add to my I Heart Market stock, because i was short of necklaces. Around the same time i was contacted by a women who buys and sells a variety of jewellery. A week before the market she took most of my stock to display at an open day, the necklace amongst other pieces sold. I quickly made another to fill my once again empty gap. Last week she contacted me for more stock at another open day, the necklace sold again, and 4 more were ordered :) .

For me the interesting thing is that our customers are completely different, although my market at I Heart is quiet a broad range of people all ages. Her market is more upmarket. And i suppose people generally don't go to a flea market with too much cash on them, although i am sometimes surprised.

Generally when I remake a piece I alter it in some slight way to make it better, this one has stayed mostly the same because that's what people want i guess. I'm not a huge fan of these,  but apparently some people are, so great!

  1. Hi Daniela ... are you saying that, 'as long as it sells I don't care what it looks like'? ... quiet mercenary or is it missionary or is it not quite
