So here we are 21 days to go to the big day, I absolutely love Xmas and everything that goes with it, Tradition, Carol singing, Turkey, Puddings, Playing with the kids toys and then falling asleep. The only thing ever missing here in good old blighty is the snow, Well it looks like I’m only going to get this blog started as it’s our local Xmas shopping night here and I’ve been chomping at the bit to get on with a blog for about 2 weeks! Literally haven’t had two minutes all week until now and it is literally two minutes I’m going to get, We have been so busy making new pieces and finally got round to photographing them all with a week of very late nights only for Black Friday to come round and then that was it – Eat  – Sleep – Work – Repeat, Don’t get me wrong I want you guys to buy as much of our stuff as you like other wise I don’t have a job! I think we have managed to get five new products on in the last week so I have plenty to write about just no time to write it. Just had a look at the last blog more time has elapsed then I had thought, Better watch I don’t sleep through Christmas Day! OK so back in from the madness that is a late night Xmas shopping night, Only took a couple of hours! So let’s start with what I’m here for, Our new  personalised sterling silver secret message droplet necklace  We are always trying to expand our secret message range and we came up with a more simple design but nonetheless a cute little charm necklace. We have come to realize that sometimes simple is the best, Not everyone wants something extravagant so this necklace does the job. The dimensions for this droplet are 2.5cm and that’s from the top of the loop to the bottom and is 1cm wide, You get 30 characters and that includes spaces so it’s not the longest piece we have but that was the thought behind the design but as always if you wish to have it bigger then just contact us and we have also given you a few lines of text in the product description to give you a helping hand to start you off if you cannot think of anything. The hardest part of making this droplet was trying to solder the loop on, It can get a little frustrating lets say when it moves by the smallest of movements when everything is lined up and then you think maybe it’s time for an eye test in the new year!  So I hope Black Friday wasn’t to stressful for you all, I have to admit I just dodge it all together I can never make up my mind what I want so best to have nothing I say then all the stress and save my pennies, Can’t go wrong really! Joking aside thanks for those of you who bombarded us with orders on Black Friday we really appreciate your custom, We can make things all day long but it takes you guys to make our business work so thanks. Well that’s that for today well tonight now I hope to be back with another new product shortly so don’t be like the rest be an IndiviJewel.

Well it’s been a sad and tough last couple of weeks for us, We have had a couple of family bereavements one of which was our beloved fur-baby Broxi who was suddenly taken from us. We have had some great times over the last 12 years home and abroad and the workplace feels very empty without him. So we haven’t being making much over the last couple of weeks as you can image but we have got our new Mother’s Day personalised pearl necklace on the website, It’s a couple of weeks overdue to the above mentioned but sometimes work isn’t the most important aspects of life when it really comes down to it. It’s nice to see the nights getting lighter and a little bit more sunshine to boot, It makes you feel a little bit more happier. Anywho back to work we decided to go for more of a tradition necklace with this design and you cannot get more traditional than a pearl necklace! Of course we added a modern twist to the design with some personalisation.  The pearls we used were 5.5-6mm and are a  light cream colour, The quality is  AA+  and they have a lovely lustre to them making them a wonderful starting componant  for a new design. We added some sterling silver ball spacers between the pearls, It  gives it that more elegant and classy look we feel, We do this with all our pearl range, It just adds something extra to it. Now the heart we cut measures 1.8cm wide by 2.5 high and is a nice sturdy 1.2mm thick, Because we cut our own shapes and sizes we can make the heart bigger if required but for what text we were using we decided on this size. There is so many personalised bits of jewellery out their that we wanted to design something a little different to your bog standard “Mum” centered on a heart. So we came up with idea of having “Mum” at a funky angle, It looks great, Something different but it did leave a big space on the heart so we thought about adding an image and the first one we thought of  was a Rose as it goes hand in hand with Mother’s day really. Looking at adding other images at some point but we will just add that to the job list at the mo. On the reverse of the heart is where you can add your personal text, Depending on how much text someone wants we have the option of cutting  the heart bigger but that’s a good thing! Flexibility that’s one of our main strengths. Overall this really does make a unique necklace, It has elegance,Class,Love all rolled into one necklace but if you would rather have something a little more subtle then we do offer this in a more simple design with it just on a sterling silver chain of which you have two choices, Trace chain or a Snake chain. Already I have a few new ideas for this design just from writing this blog, So onto the next challenge! Not sure what idea to start next but that’s all part of the adventure.
