What size should I order? TOP
The following are average sizes only.
To ensure a proper fit for bracelets, I recommend measuring the wrist with a non stretchy string and then measuring the string using a ruler. Add 1/2 inch to your measurement for a proper size.

Should I let my toddler wear jewelry? Is it safe? TOP
Being a Mother myself, I believe we can never be too careful with our children. Please watch your children anytime they wear jewelry as small pieces may break off and be a choking hazard.
I try my best to create my polymer clay beads durable, but they are not indestructible. Let your little ones know that Creme De La Gems beads do not like to be placed in mouths or even worse...bitten!
Proposition 65 warning: Some Creme De La Gems Jewelry pieces include Swarovski® crystals which contains trace amounts of lead, a chemical know to the state of California to cause cancer, or birth defects, or reproductive harm. If you prefer your jewels to be free from these crystals, kindly let me know and I will design with a high quality glass bead.
Does your jewelry include an extender chain? TOP
My necklaces each include a 1" grow chain and Bracelets include 1/2" grow chain unless additional length is requested. There is a $3 charge for each additional inch of chain requested.
All of the chain I use is Sterling Silver closed oval chain.
When is your Christmas order deadline? TOP
To play it safe, the cut off date for accepting orders to be delivered by Christmas is Sunday, December 7th.
***All orders placed before the cut off date are guaranteed to arrive in time for Christmas.
Do you make all of your Clay Beads? TOP
Yes :0). I handcraft every clay bead that you see in my designs from the sculpted little characters down to the simple dotted lampwork. No molds are used and all lampwork are hand rolled.
After the beads are created, they are then reinforced using liquid clay, baked at the recommended temperature. At times I add glazes and glitters for added "glam," otherwise my beads are left in their natural state.
I believe that when clay beads are glazed, they lose the integrity of pure organic artistry. However, if you prefer a glazed appearance to your beads, I can add glaze to your design. I do not glaze faces.
Any hand painted accents are heat set on all beads.
