Special Orders

Many times when I list squares, which are my most popular bead, they will be slightly graduated.  I make that clear in the listing and people know exactly what they are going to get when they purchase them.  However, when someone places a special order I try to get them as close as possible to the same size since they are essentially buying them sight unseen.  I usually make many, many more than the order just to make sure I have enough the same size.  Yesterday I had an order for 12 squares....


40 beads later, I'm still one short of the full order.  Glad I never promise next day delivery! But one more torch session should cover this order, and I have lots leftover to list!

Omg! I can totally relate! I'm guessing you're being very particular and that your customer would love each and every one of those, but I totally get where you're coming from. And at least you can list the leftovers.
