Making

How are the creations made?

Glitter spends a lot of time sculpting designs to bring her creations to life. Once the original design is finished, it is kept as a prototype to be reproduced, then a mold is made from it, a resin is poured into the mold for reproduction, it must dry for a few hours, up to 72 hours depending on the realization, Once the creations are completely dry, they are removed from the mold, sanded, polished, the adapted fasteners glued, then varnished and dried about 24 hours more.

The creations can also be made with plastic, fabric, wood, glass, bamboo, polymer clay, ropes, shells, metal, recycling, and anything that can fall into the hands of Glitter at the moment.
Glitter is 'Flex' and also uses stainless steel, to create many of its assemblies, brackets, chains and surgical steel for sensitive people on all models of earrings.

How long does it take to make the jewelry?


The manufacturing time varies between three days and four weeks, depending on the selected items and the order flow.

Please keep in mind that most of the creations are specially designed for you, they do not yet exist, which means that there is a manufacturing time necessary to give them life.
