Mother’s Day is less than one month away. I don’t know about you, but I think there is much to be said about personalized gifts. It becomes one of those keepsake items that you actually want to hold onto. It also shows that thought and love were put into whatever the personalized item is. This Mother’s Day I’ve created the “Mom” Hammered Envelope Necklace and of course you can personalize the hand stamp to whatever word you want. I’m doing an early special for $23 for this necklace until April 30th, so be sure to get yours soon.
I’ve been on quite a hiatus for the past two months, but it’s with good reason. Since little man decided to make his grand appearance 3 weeks earlier than planned, I’ve been living and breathing motherhood with a newborn. I can finally understand when I hear other mother’s say that this is the greatest challenge, but most rewarding thing they’ve ever done. Check out some pics of my little pumpkin.

One of the many things I love about designing jewelry is creating customized jewelry pieces. Whether it’s jewelry for a birthday, remembrance, wedding or other occasion, I love being able to help create symbolism for people. Over the course of the years much of my jewelry sales have actually generated from “customized” jewelry. A lot times when people think of “custom” jewelry they equate it to being too expensive, which is not necessarily true.
This Holiday Season, I’ve added a section called “Customize IT” on my Etsy site for those shoppers who would like to have personalized jewelry pieces created. After all why not capture and share memories??
