Jewelry isn't just for your neck anymore! Help me create a full line of elegant and sexy shoulder jewlery. Any help is appreciated!

Epaulettes

I have been designing and creating jewelry for a few years now, making the usual: bracelets, rings, necklaces, and earrings. One day I really wanted to wear a piece of jewelry that would transform a simple dress that I had and that was the first piece of shoulder jewelry that I made. Once people started to see those pieces the demand to make them skyrocketed.

After being on the design competition show I knew that I had to dive deeper into this line. Unfortunately I didnt win and dont have the funding for this project and need your help.

With the help of you and Kickstarter I can raise the money that I need to create the samples, have them photographed and to help create the linesheets and lookbooks which is a must for any new line. Being an artist can be tough on the finances but the support of everyone is what makes it all worth it!

 I truly appreciate any help that you guys can give! I'm excited to share this journey with you! Updates will be posted on my webpage: www.ninacortes.com, my twitter: www.twitter.com/ninacortes and soon the line that you helped to create will be on www.ninaloren.com

Thank you!

Nina

FAQ

  • It is one of the pieces that I pretty much never take off. 

    It's a delicate Sterling Silver chain with Three Semi-Precious Stones in the center. The three stones lay right at the crook of your neck. It's the perfect piece to layer with your favorite necklaces or to wear alone for a delicate touch. 

    In the survey at the end, I will give options for the stones. (i.e. amethyst, garnet, peridot, etc.) The stones are 3mm and the chain is 16" with a 2" extender.
