Hair accesories help! katie vale please read!

sineadw, 20 April, 2010 at 16:33 Posted on Planning 0 19

Im completely unorganised so i shouldnt be concerned with the small details yet, i havnt even found a dress...but i have an idea of a piece i would like making for my hair! i live in liverpool an im from manchester so someone from that area to make it would be ideal but it could be done without me actually meeting the potential maker if they are further afield, any ideas of someone that could make the piece for me? thanks, sinead x

    Hi there,

    I'm a jewellery and hair accessory designer/maker and most of my work is bespoke. I'm in the South but brides from all over the country ask me to make pieces for them as we discuss requirements and specifications in detail via email. Sample beads/crystals etc can also be sent out.

    Examples of my work can be found on www.louloubelle.co.uk - please do give me a shout on ****@***********.**.** if I can help at all.

    Lisa

    Hi Sinead,

    Welcome to Hitched and probably your new addiction.

    Thanks 3D for the recommendation. x

    I mainly work with bespoke designs taking in ideas from your hairstyle, dress, other accessories and more importantly the overall look you want to achieve. My website is www.lynseysdesigns.co.uk and email ******@**************.**.**.

    I have tons of samples that I use for exhibitions and I am happy for hitchers to borrow them for hair trials or just to try on before they buy. All I ask is for the postage to be covered.

    When I am making designs I email photographs in stages to ensure the design is being created how you want it. I spent ages working on a design for a hitcher called Delves and she was delighted. She saw the design coming along in stages and changed little bits as I went.

    I'd be happy to chat to you about ideas, lend samples and post you different colours of beads if you need colours to match up.

    You can see my Hitched reviews here if you want a read https://www.hitched.co.uk/wedding-jewellery/glasgow/lynseys-designs_4604.htm.

    Look forward to hearing how your wedding plans come along.

    Lynsey x

    Hi, its very possibly me im terrible with computers but im having trouble emailing you from your website! Your work is beautifuu for a start, the idea i have for my piece is of a flower and leaf design for a large hair clip of maybe 3inches or larger. I want it to stand out an shine with clear crystals and also blue to lift it and fit my colour scheme! Just enquiring at this point any ideas on this and is it something you would be willing to undrertake if i go ahead with the ideas? thankyou,

    Hmm thankyou i was just looking at your work its fantastic, i want it heavier in design than that with more sparcly placed crystals if that makes sence, maybe even with the mech type silver to make the piece more solid!

    I think I know what you mean as I've got a design in mid progress like that with crystals dotted all through the leaf parts. I'm sure Lisa will be able to help you.

    Hi Sinead, thanks for your comment! Rather than clicking on the "contact us" or the email address on the website (if you don't use Outlook I don't think this will open up hotmail for example), can you just type ****@***********.**.** into a blank email. I've been receiving emails fine so don't think there's a problem.

    With regards to the flower, I have a few different ideas that I'd be happy to sketch out for you to see what you think if you can send me a email that I can reply to.

    Look forward to hearing from you.

    Lisa x

    Hi Sinead

    Don't worry I won't be offended, there are lots of us on here who do similar things. But just to give you an idea is this the osrt of thing you are after? https://www.katievaledesigns.com/HappyClients.html If you scroll down my Happy Clients page Tahdah is there with a flower like this on an alice band. Is that what you mean?

    Hi Sineadw

    Thank you for this, much appreciated. If you email me: ****@****************.*** & we can go from there. Tahdah's has pink crystals in it, but you can have all clear, or another colour if you'd prefer. Anyway, as said email me & we can get sorted. I look forward to hearing from you.

    Thanks

    Katie

    Hi Sinead, I am glad you seem to be sorting your hair accessories out but just wanted to say that Lynsey from PerfectGems made me the most beautiful Tiara. As she said she e-mailed me pictures of it in progress and if there was something I didn't think was quite right, she would tweak it, send more pictures until we were BOTH happy with it. I love it! I cant praise Lynsey enough.
