Designs by Debi Newsletter

Well, I think I've FINALLY worked out all the bugs in the sign-up process for my newsletter! (It's a double opt-in system to avoid spamming.) And once I accomplished that feat today, I started putting together the first issue. I'm so excited!

And ((*hint*)) you're not going to want to miss the first issue so, if you haven't already, head on over to the main part of the website to sign-up. There's a sign-up box in the right column of every page on the site.

The first issue will arrive in inboxes first thing Sunday morning so make sure you get on that list!

Remember 9/11 & Thank Our Troops

I'm sure you've all been thinking alot about 9/11, the loved ones lost, the wars we're in, our soldiers, etc over the last few days especially...and I have been too. I decided to spend some quiet time before going to sleep expressing feelings by putting together a collection on ArtFire. I thought you might enjoy it...




The death of one man does not heal our wounds or bring back our loved ones. But it is a step toward closure and hopefully a more peaceful world. Thank you to our soldiers who work tirelessly every day to keep us safe. Thank you to the soldiers who gave us this victory. And thank you to all the military families who sacrifice just as much for us. We salute you. God Bless America.

♥ Support Our Troops & Remember Our Veterans ♥

My heart goes out to all those who have lost loved ones...

I'm happy to say that Julz was thrilled with her jewelry. I was honored to be the one she selected to make her wedding jewelry and had quite alot of fun doing it! And, in the process of emailing back and forth about her jewelry, Hawaii and a host of other things, we found out we have alot in common and have become friends!

Congratulations to Julz & Joe on this very special day! I wish you a lifetime of love and happiness ♥Aloha♥

And I hope you've all enjoyed following this project. I wanted to show you how easy it is to have jewelry custom designed for you ...whether you live around the corner from me or around the world. I hope I've succeeded and next time you want something  special I'd love to hear from you!

Follow Me As I Create a Custom Jewelry Set for a Maui Wedding ~ Part 3

Ready to see photos? There were 2 steps of approvals for this project. The first included a photo of 4 possible earring designs and one of a section showing how I was planning to string the bracelet and necklace...

 


The next round of approvals came when the jewelry was almost finished to be sure she was pleased with everything and didn't want to make any changes.

the bracelet...


the necklace...

and the earrings finished in the design she selected...

She was thrilled with everything and gave me the ok to finish them up. So next time I'll have the photos of the finished pieces. And I think I'll reveal those in celebration of her wedding day... this Wednesday ♥ So be sure to check back :)
