Design Philosophy: Why Your Custom Jewelry Experience is Always Free

I often get asked, "How much is the custom design fee?" The answer is always the same: Zero. Zilch. Nada.

And I know that probably sounds too good to be true in the world of bespoke jewelry, where custom work often comes with a hefty surcharge before a single bead is strung. But here’s the honest truth: I don't see my custom work as a financial transaction to be taxed; I see it as a privilege.

It's a Love for the Craft, Not the Ledger

The deepest root of Sacred Sol Design is my genuine, unqualified love for the craft. The fun part—the part that gets me out of bed—is the challenge of meticulously fine-tuning every element that makes a piece uniquely yours.

• The Hunt for the Perfect Stone: Finding that one ideal stone with the perfect flash of color.
• The Color Palette: Making sure the Bright & Colorful beads play nicely with the Earthy & Neutral accents.
• The Fit: Getting the length and the clasp just right so it feels effortless when you wear it.

When you're driven by the joy of that creative puzzle, the money is secondary. Not charging an extra fee for the design phase allows me to focus completely on making your piece absolutely, undeniably perfect.

You Get to Be the Co-Designer

When you trust me with your custom vision, you aren't waiting anxiously for a surprise delivery. You become a co-designer in the process!

I make sure you are kept in the loop every step of the way with photo updates. You get to watch your vision come to life, from the initial sketch to the final beading. It ensures two things:

1. It's Perfect: There are no last-minute "wait, that's not what I imagined" moments. We adjust and fine-tune until it meets your highest standards.
2. It’s Personal: You get to see the care and attention to detail that goes into every piece of handcrafted jewelry. It transforms the accessory into a truly one-of-a-kind keepsake.

If you have a special gemstone in mind, a specific uniform color you need to match, or just a beautiful idea rattling around in your head—let's bring it to life. I'd love to make you the centerpiece of my next passion project.
