Build Your Own

One thing that has always been important to me with my jewelry is that it has some meaning -that there's something personal about it. I like the idea that when you wear it you carry a little reminder to "choose joy" or "laugh". I have been mulling over some ideas on how to make it a little more personal, more interactive...a way for you to put together exactly what you want. So this is what I have come up with, a step by step way for you to choose exactly what you want!

Here's the deal: first of all this is all You! You pick whatever you want, whether that is one thing or twenty, it's entirely up to you.

Here's a quick run down of how I would build mine:

  • I want a necklace, specifically an 18in. chain, so I pick that, add it to my cart and then click on continue shopping.
  • Then I think I'd like a couple of the rectangle word charms, I add 'em to my cart and click keep shopping.
  • I know I want a resin and herb charm - purple! Add it and keep shopping.
  • And last I wanna whole bunch of funky stones - a large black stone, a medium pink, a medium green, a medium blue, a medium orange, and a small white...so I add each one indivdually to the cart and keep shopping.

Then I think I'm set!

I have tried to make it as simple as possible, but if you have any problems or questions just shoot me an e-mail.

Step one - choose either a Necklace or Bangle Bracelet
