my every day necklace

Do you have a "go to" necklace that you wear every day because it goes well with any outfit and makes you happy? My new cube necklace is my go to necklace. I love that it's small and simple, classy and casual. The pendant is a solid 6mm sterling silver cube. It can be hand stamped with an initial on all four sides. I made mine with the first initial of my husband and two boys then added a little heart to the fourth side. I love, love, love it!

the perfect earrings

These are my new favorite earrings for every day! I love the size, shape, and dome. The three little hand stamped dots add a simple style that will go with any outfit.

The sterling is cut, filed, domed, and stamped by hand. The squares are 1/2". The ear wires are also high quality sterling silver.

March sneak peek & an announcement

Here's a sneak peek at some of the new personalized sterling silver pieces I'll be adding to my shop soon.

The sterling silver baby bracelet is a cuff that can be personalized with baby's name and/or birth date, or a sweet message. With a gentle squeeze or pull this cuff will fit baby for years! (It's amazing how little a baby's wrist size changes over the first few years!)

The square raised edge pendant is very unique...personalize it with up to three short names or initials. It would look fabulous customized with a monogram for a wedding gift.

The mixed up charm bracelet features lots of tiny charms in rectangles & circles. They will accommodate small initials in any three of my fun fonts (block, script, or typewriter). This is a great gift to give grandma with the initials of all her precious grand kids.

The copper and sterling mini name necklace is a cute combo of circle & square, copper & sterling. It will accommodate a short name on each. If you have longer names, I can make the charms larger!

On April 1st I will be giving a PROMO CODE for my Mother's Day sale!

Ode to Shakespeare

You've gotta love some of old William's most famous lines. This is one of my favorites, "to thine own self be true". Seriously, if you're not true to yourself then to whom can you be? I decided to engrave these words onto a 1" sterling silver pendant. I love how it turned out. This pendant is the largest available in my sterling silver line. It comes with an Italian made sterling silver ball chain. If your heart so desires you can also add a Swarovski birthstone crystal or some other goodie.

This cutie is available at my shop. http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=19357103
