J Fonts

J seems to be a very popular initial, & I get lots of request to view the J in different fonts.  My most popular initial font- large Monogram has a (J) dilemma. The Monogram J has a line through the middle; therefore, some people prefer the (i) instead (which oddly enough does look like a J to me as well).

 The picture below shows the fonts as follows on 1/2" charms:
-Top left- Large Block Font J
-Top right- Medium Whimsy uppercase J
-Lower left- Large Monogram J
-Lower right- Large Monogram I


If you do order an J initial charm in the Monogram font, please let me know if you are ok with the J with the line through it or if you would like the (i) to represent a J.  Thanks!

I only carry 2 large fonts: Uppercase Block and Uppercase Monogram, but I do have other fonts/sizes available as well.  You may view all fonts at: http://www.wearablewhispers.blogspot.com/p/font-choices.html  Please note- fonts only come in one size, so I can't make them larger or smaller to fit on a charm.  Just let me know if you have questions:)

Necklace Lengths/Types

Length:


I get lots of questions on necklace length and thought it might be helpful to do a post on the topic. The standard length I recommend is 18" (not too long, not too short on most people). However, I carry many different lengths of chain. Sterling Silver necklace prices include either a 14, 16, 18, or 20" ball chain. I do also have 24" and 30" ball chains available for an additional $2.50 -24" ($17.50 total) and an additional $3- 30" ($18.50 total).
Gold Necklace prices include a 16, 18, or 20" cable chain.

This bust shows the following lengths of ball chain: 14, 16, 18, 20, & 24".
This model shows the following lengths: 14, 16, 18, 20, and 22" (I no longer stock 22", but 24 and 30" instead)

This image was found at http://theaveragegirlsguide.com/2011/12/necklac/ found via Pinterest.  I thought it might be helpful as well.

The model above and below shows the gold cable chain necklaces: 16, 18, and 20" lengths


Necklace Types:

Sterling Silver

Most sterling silver necklaces include/show the ball chain, as I stock large quantities of the multiple lengths.  The other necklace types are available upon request (in place of the ball chain).  The price is the same.  If you would like one of the different chains on a necklace, please list this in the "note to WearableWhispers" area upon checkout.  All the necklaces below are also available for purchase alone as well.

-Ball Chain Necklaces: 16, 18, 20, 24, 30" (this type comes standard with most silver necklace orders)
-Snake/Smooth 1mm Chains: 14, 16, 18" 
-Popcorn Chains: 18" 
-Flat Cable Chains: 16 or 18"

Flat Cable chain

Necklaces in the picture above are (starting at the top): Popcorn chain, Snake Chain, Ball Chain, Cable Chain

Gold Cable Chain verses Silver Cable Chain

The gold and sterling silver cable chains I carry are slightly different.  The silver is considered a flat cable chain and just slightly larger.  They are both still very dainty-shown below with 1/2" charms.
