we love handmade

We absolutely love designing everything that is unique, different, special and handmade. Our handmade jewelry is unique in that only very few pieces are reproduced, our ornaments are different in that different colors and textures are created, and our hair accessories are special in that much detail is put into creating them using resin liquid. We also enjoy adding a touch of personality to our items with our Handmade Cards and Tags.

We designed these especially for this Christmas Holiday.

Handmade Jewelry with Benefits

So often I come across something I really like on the internet and then contemplate so much on buying it. What holds me back, what is the reason for my grudging? Firstly, I think about the photo. Am I really going to get what I see? Sometimes I wonder if the photos really represent the item. Secondly, is the quality as great as how it is described? Thirdly, what are my benefits? and lastly, if only the cost was a bit lower.

This is why we here at Catz-Kato take much emphasis on making sure that our photos match up with our items. We try our best to capture the details of every jewelry piece and make it a point to carefully describe the item in full detail.

The benefit of purchasing a handmade jewelry piece of the Catilla Collection is that it is carefully made with you in mind. Our pieces are not mass-produced and very few pieces are reproduced. We do take into consideration to our Brides who often need several items reproduced for their bridesmaids. Also, you can always come back to us with that very same item and have us retouch it up, fix it if it breaks and even add onto it for a minimal fee. Also, take a peek at what our customers are saying. Check us out at Catilla.etsy.com and view our Feedback.

Our Daily Deal gives our prior customers and potential customers the opportunity to purchase our jewelry pieces at a lower price. Our Daily deal lasts for two days and then new items are offered at lower prices than the value price. Now that is a deal worth looking at!

The Deal is Here at Catz-Kato Designs

Just a reminder that the daily deal is on and ends tomorrow at 12:01am.

The Wire Wrap Technique

I so often like to write about how I designed a piece of jewelry. Today I would like to share with you how I designed the Ring of Pearl Necklace. This is a new piece that is available for purchase at my Etsy Shop . The materials I used to design this amazing necklace are tiny 3 and 4mm size white cultivated freshwater pearls. These tiny pearls are A rated fine quality pearls. I also used a Silver plated non-tarnish 26 gauge jewelry wire for wire wrapping, a 25mm German Silver metal washer and a .925 Sterling Silver chain.

Firstly, I began by wrapping the silver wire around the ring to create a knot. Secondly, I individually wrapped each tiny pearl by wrapping the wire around my german washer once for each pearl, repeating this technique until all of my pearls were individually wrapped around the ring. Thirdly, I cut the sterling silver small link chain to measure 16.50 inches in length. And finally, I passed the chain through my wrapped ring and then I added my jump rings and spring ring clasp to close the chain.

This beautiful chain is completely handmade and ready to wear.

Forest or Pine Needles are nice

These intricate earrings have a special look that make them quite unique. They remind me of the forest or pines needles because of their needle-like inclusions of rutile. The Rutilated Quartz stone is a form of the mineral quartz. It is often cut and polished to be used in jewelry designs.

Natural Rutilated Grey Quartz stones encased in 14 karat gold plating over sterling silver. These amazing stones measure approximately 16mm x 12mm and dangle from 14 karat gold plated Sterling Silver French Ear Wires. Dangle 32mm long.

.925 Sterling Silver $72.00/$82 Value

These beautiful rutilated dangle earrings are available for sale at our Catilla Shop.
