2016 Build A Line Master Class Challenge, Part 2

BALC 2016 Image

Well the second Blog Hop for the 2016 Build A Line Master Class Challenge is here and I want to say that I’m a lot more conscientious of where I am, or need to be.  I have learned so much in just these few weeks and we still have a few weeks to go.  I have discovered that I am a hobbyist.  I also learned a lot more about pricing.  One of the participants, Christine Cravens, provided a pyramid explaining the different tiers of pricing and it is of great value to me.

I have been working and reworking the pieces I plan for the “Big Reveal”.  I’m pretty comfortable with what I have defined as my style and hope that my work is as pleasing to your eye as I am envisioning.

Here are a few pics of some of the components I will be using.

PMComponents

The five (5) pieces I have and will be working on are pendants, a statement necklace, a bracelet or cuff, earrings and a ring.  A few months ago I posted some sweet and simple (bottom tier) pendants and my line will take off from those pendants.  Here they are.
PMHeartPendants

I have had so many ideas come to mind with these sweet little inverted hearts.  They work up quickly and inexpensively and they are bound to make a nice gift.  So I look forward to the next blog hop and the “Final Reveal”.

Thank you for visiting and please take a moment to visit the other Participants’ blogs below.  Until next time…the “Final Reveal”.  See ya then!!

  35. I love to see your past and the latest creations. Both are beautiful but I can see how much technique you have gained in the path. Your line is very cute and I think they sell well too.
