I loved reading the communications back and forth. I too, have found that communicating and WIP photos really help in both parties being pleased with the final outcome.

And you are also right, custom work can be frustrating!

You made it so easy for me, I suspect that the thread of communication makes me look like a slouch! I loved holding and touching your little turquoise totem. It has a friendly energy and protective feeling about it. I am so glad you let me make my little final adjustment as well. You are the best! If I can ever be of service again, please let me know. :)Marsha Wiest-Hineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15481754729084714643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6284884316719285197.post-3701463035508659202013-11-02T07:42:29.685-06:002013-11-02T07:42:29.685-06:00LOL I loved the story so much I forgot to mention ...LOL I loved the story so much I forgot to mention that I really like the way the piece turned out. I love turquoise and gold- add a touch of creamy pearl and it is Victorian. (I have a necklace planned for another piece of that slab turquoise with that combination.)<br /><br />I really like the drop from the tear drop to the piece of turquoise Jennifer provided and the turquoise embellishing the bezel.KJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02839682837427981888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6284884316719285197.post-70029338216650668512013-11-02T07:37:46.561-06:002013-11-02T07:37:46.561-06:00What a great post.

It can be frustrating.<br /><br />The only thing I would have done differently is very early in the process asked if she was looking for something for evening-wear, something dressy, or something casual.

If only all custom orders could go on so smoothly!<br />Communication is definitely the key to a good custom order, but I think also experience and empathy from the artist and some faith from the customer are also needed - as you just proved.PiPahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00160937178391495509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6284884316719285197.post-22795347027229494222013-11-01T09:11:03.078-06:002013-11-01T09:11:03.078-06:00Thank you so much Cath!

When I did my very first custom jewelry project I really struggled, but once I began to apply what I had learned for my dancewear business, I found it all went much more smoothly. Amusingly, this morning I want to make a little change in the stringing, and have contacted my client to see if she can wait and day and allow me to make one more small improvement. :) Marsha Wiest-Hineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15481754729084714643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6284884316719285197.post-23987526594947788972013-11-01T08:56:42.110-06:002013-11-01T08:56:42.110-06:00Your posts are amongst the best blog posts.
