I created this custom bridal hair comb for Samantha. Swarovski crystals were artistically hand sewn and wire twisted to create this stunning one-of-a-kind special hair piece to finish off her formal bridal look. She had me created matching earrings for herself and her bridesmaids. I could easily make this a clip or pin. This piece takes a bit to create. Custom shades of crystals are available to match your wedding colors. Please allow a few weeks for your completed project.

I, Melinda Jernigan, a wife of Christian worship leader, recording artist, and author, Dennis Jernigan, mother of 9, (plus four sons and three daughter's-in-law), grandmother to 12 and beaded jewelry artist, understand God had designed and created each of us to be different and unique. Just as the Lord has designed us each to be unique individuals, I have a deep desire to use the creativity He has placed in me to design and produce beaded jewelry and accessories made by my own hand - meaning each piece is one of a kind. If more than one item of the same kind is needed, (each one may vary slightly), chalk it up to artistic flare!
I use an eclectic array of materials: sterling silver, copper, gemstones from around the world, Swarovski crystals, artisan glass beads, plated metals, varied glass beads, guitar picks, and more…I have some fun custom ordered handbags and accessories available as well.

Custom orders (weddings, graduations, Mother’s Day, Prom, Christmas…) are available and encouraged. Personalized service is one my specialties. I am passionate about my beaded jewelry art and love to work with other passionate, art-loving people.

For Custom Swarovski Crystal Beaded Bridal NecklaceMelinda was a joy to work with. She was very creative and designed a solution I was very happy with. She consistently communicated with me in a prompt and professional manner and, in my opinion, over delivered on her promises. I would not hesitate to work with her again and highly recommend her services.

For Remember Mom ~ Crystal Pearl Sterling Charm BraceletI had been searching, to no avail, for ankle bracelets for my daughters. I'd wanted an angel wing with a purple stone- a remembrance piece. Their grandmother had passed. Her favorite color purple. I'm so happy to have stumbled onto the custommade website. Melinda's talents go beyond wonderful. These pieces are exactly what I'd hoped for and more. I am so excited to give these pieces to my daughters, at Christmas.
