Hi again – and welcome to the new week – hope it’s going to be a great one! ;)Today I thought I’d write a little bit about custom orders..
I really enjoy doing custom orders for people – even though they stress me out, to be honest! Trying to match up with a vision in someone’s head is not always easy! But, I like to tackle them.. Plus, I have one fallback – I NEVER start making things up until people are 100% sure about the design!
I’m pretty lucky in that I do all my designs on the computer (vector files) – so I’m able to create a jpeg, and email to customers to check.. This is also useful when I have to make sure of, for example, a ring size – when the customer is on the other side of the world! I send a 100% scaled image, they can print it out, cut it out, and wrap it around their finger to check! I did this recently for a ring headed to Germany – and thankfully, it apparently fits perfectly! (Plus, I love the fact that most Germans I have met are really accurate – and these customers were great and gave me perfect diameters!) π
Here’s a pic of the design, and the finished ring π
It’s also really helpful for designing – I get some interesting requests, where a customer will ask, for example, if I can combine a variety of images to form 1 design – see the example below:
It was highly useful to be able to send a rough design first, to make sure I was on the right track, before spending ages fine-tuning it all!
So basically – I really do love doing custom work, and I’m always happy to be able to work with people all over the world, to create something they’re going to love! π I’ll leave you with a few more examples of work I’ve done this year.. Have a great week!! π Megan xx
I’m sure I have said this before but Megan you are WICKEDLY talented! I must come visit your studio some time and I hope you take credit cards! π
Great work I love it its edgy and creative.
Thank you!! π
How would I go about getting a custom Cthulhu ring for my boyfriend? I intend on proposing to him with it π
