Jewelry Makeover
Lots and lots of jewelry
Tracy came to us with many jewelry pieces. Some of them were inherited from her family. Some of them were gifts. Some of them were things that she had for many years. Although these items had been in her collection, they didn’t match with the style of jewelry that she owns and loves and the kinds of jewelry she is usually attached to.
It seemed to us that Tracy is a jewelry lover with eccentric taste and we wanted to make something we knew she would love. With so much jewelry and stones to work with we were excited to work on a project that had a lot of room for us to play with to create something new that she would be excited to wear.
The first thing we had to do was dismantle all of her jewelry. With so many pieces that we were working with, this ended up being a lot of work! Once we worked with Tracy to pick out the stones we wanted to keep and work with for the new pieces, we got started on brainstorming with Tracy what it is that she would want out of her new redesigned pieces.
