For modifications to existing designs. 

This package is for making changes to an existing Captive Collars® design. Examples include:

A Custom Design Consultation is required before any custom order can be placed. The $30 consultation fee covers my design time and services and satisfies the required custom order fee for that design. If you move forward with the approved design, you will not be charged an additional custom order fee.


📷 Package 2: Custom Design + Prototype Photos — $75

For designs that require alterations to accommodate different chain or pendant sizes.

This package is for existing designs that need structural or sizing adjustments to ensure the components work together properly. A prototype may be created and photographed to confirm the design before the final piece is made.

Includes everything in Package 1, plus:

  • Prototype assembly

  • Product photographs

The $75 consultation fee covers my design time, prototype creation, and custom order services. If you proceed with the approved design, no additional custom order fee will be charged.


🛠 Package 3: New Product Development — Starting at $150

For developing a new product or extensive custom work that goes beyond modifying an existing design.

This package includes everything in Packages 1 and 2, with the development of a new design.

  • Material sourcing and pricing
  • Prototype development when needed

Final pricing depends on the scope of the project. The consultation fee covers my design time, and custom order services. If you proceed with the approved design, no additional custom order fee will be charged.


🔄 Additional Design Changes

Once a custom design has been started, priced, photographed, or a custom order has been prepared, any additional design changes or new custom requests require a new Custom Design Consultation.

Each request requires additional design time, pricing, and preparation.

How to Measure Your Neck for a Necklace

Finding the perfect necklace fit can elevate your style and comfort, whether you’re selecting a casual piece or a special day collar. Here’s a step-by-step guide to accurately measure your neck so your necklace sits exactly where you want it.

1. Gather What You Need

To measure your neck, you’ll need:

  • A soft, flexible measuring tape (fabric tape works best)
  • A mirror (optional, but helpful for seeing the fit)
  • A string and ruler if you don’t have a measuring tape

2. Find Your Neck Measurement

  1. Wrap the measuring tape snugly around your neck, right at the base. This is typically right above your collarbone. Make sure the tape sits comfortably, without pulling too tight.
  2. Record the measurement where the tape meets. This number is your neck’s circumference.

If you’re using a string:

  1. Wrap the string around your neck in the same spot.
  2. Mark where the end meets.
  3. Lay the string flat against a ruler to measure the length.

3. Add Length for Desired Necklace Fit

Use your neck measurement as a starting point, then add length to determine where you’d like the necklace to sit:

  • Choker Fit: Add 1-2 inches to your neck measurement for a close, comfortable fit.
  • Standard Collar Fit: For day collars and discreet pieces, add about 2-3 inches to your neck measurement.
  • Pendant or Lariat Style: Adding 3-5 inches or more will create a looser, longer style that falls at your collarbone or lower.


Ring Size Guide

All ring sizes listed are US standard ring sizes. If you are located outside the United States, we recommend checking a ring size conversion chart before ordering to ensure the best fit.

If you're unsure of your size, a local jeweler can typically measure your finger quickly and accurately.
