I am happy to have received orders from customers asking for the same spiral designs that they saw on my blogshop. I am very glad that they like my designs and would want the same for their own bands. Having said that, I usually encourage customers to choose their own colours instead of getting a replicate. That way, the band will be a personalised one that reflects their choices.

This is one of those. My design, your colours.

I was asked to make a spiral and a name band for R* and her friend respectively. R* requested that a heart follow after the name for the name band. She picked 2 colours for each band and from the combination, I figured out that she was after an "candied-effect".

As I ponder over for the best presentation possible, it struck me that a cursive font would lend an elegant touch to the name band. I also felt that using title case would give a softer effect, blending well with the "candied" colours. I brought up my suggestions to R* and she promptly agreed. The cursive font is a more complicated one to weave and is also bigger than the straight conventional one. I spent a considerable length of time designing the letters and finally getting the band woven.

As for the spiral band, I designed it with patterns which alternate between baby blue and pink. The end product is really cute!
R* has been a gem since her first email to me and I really wanted her and her friend to have really pretty bands, and I took care to ensure that.

For R* and her friend:
