THE ITEM I WANT TO BUY IS SOLD OUT. WILL YOU BE RESTOCKING?
I make my magical wearables in small batches, and have always been a one-lady operation. Due to my ongoing chronic illness as of mid-2022 thanks to long covid, it is no longer feasible for me to continually keep every design I’ve ever made in stock.
Most new collections will be released as capped pre-orders to help me with managing my energy levels and workload, extra quantities will be released after all pre-orders have shipped, and may also be made available via my retail stockists.
Older designs that are still visible on the website may receive a re-release in the future, the best way to be notified of these restocks is by subscribing to the Celestial Closet email newsletter.
Some pieces are one-off in nature due to special limited edition materials or jewellery findings that are no longer available, these will be clearly marked in the listing.
Recycled wearables are all one-of-a-kind due to the unique patterns and textures that occur during the material pressing process.
DO YOU DO CUSTOM LASER CUTTING PROJECTS?
As of March 2023, I am taking on limited medium to large laser cutting projects, including business signage and bespoke market stall/retail displays for other small businesses. I am also able to assist other jewellery designers and makers working with acrylic and wood with laser cutting jobs, dependent on my availability.
Please view the Bespoke Laser Cutting information page for more information on my requirements for custom laser cutting projects. Unless I am designing bespoke signage or displays for you, I will require laser-ready vector artworks in AI or SVG format, with specific stroke weights and colours.
I am unable to offer customisation or personalisation of existing Celestial Closet jewellery and wearable art designs, with the exception of swapping earring findings or necklace chains to another type of metal (such as gold tone > silver tone stainless steel, or stainless steel > titanium)
HOW CAN I GET STARTED WITH LASER CUTTING AND JEWELLERY DESIGN?
I offer some tips and tricks on my Instagram about my #lasercuttinglife and give some insight into how I work, so other makers can get started with laser cutting. I also plan to film some live streaming content for my Twitch and YouTube channels on the topics of laser cutting and acrylic recycling, and hope to offer paid content via Ko-fi in future.
