    Q: Selecting Charms
    How do I order additional charms to go onto a bracelet?

    A: We offer many different types of charms. Most of them we can easily attach onto a sterling charm bracelet, or one of our beaded bracelets. Our customers really like to select ones that are symbolic and meaningful to their own story.
    Simply decide on the charm you'd like, enter in the text box provided "attach to bracelet" and click "Add to Cart". In each of our charm descriptions, you can also select one of our chains available.

    Q: Ordering Crystals
    How do I order additional crystal dangles for my charms?

    A: In most of the product details, there is a drop down list for you to select one crystal dangle. If you'd like additional crystals attached to a charm, go to the "Swarovski Crystal Dangle" category. Use the text box provided to instruct us which charm to attach the crystal to.

    Q: Change a product's elements
    I like one of your bracelets, but want to change the crystal colors and charm attached. How do I do this?

    A: Each of our products are custom made for you at the time of your order. If you'd like to change a design element, crystal color, or charm, please email us first to make sure that we can accomodate your request. Usually we can, and we strive to have satisfied customers.

    Q: Item out of stock
    I saw a charm I like the last time I visited your website. But I don't see it anymore. Do you still have it?

    A: We keep a small inventory of items on hand. If there are no more physically in stock, the item is temporarily deleted from our listing, so that you can't order an item that we can't ship right away. When we receive more stock in, the listing will reappear. If there is an item in particular that you'd like to have, but don't see, email us to ask when it will be available. Most of the time it can be replenished in 1 week.

    Q: Multiple quantities of the same piece
    I want to have 6 of the same piece made so I can give them to my family as gifts. How do I do this?

    A: There is a quantity box in each product listing. Enter the number you want to order and then "Add to Cart". You may receive an error message if we don't have adequate stock on hand. Please email us with your request and we will order the amounts needed for you.
    «Previous Top  Next»




    Q: Wish List
    I'm not ready to place an order yet, but I want to remember which items I liked. How do I do this?

    A: We have a feature called "Wish List", which is available in every item detail. You will need to create a user ID and password, so choose something you can remember easily. Then you can add as many items as you like to your wish list for later viewing. You can also email your wish list to yourself, or a friend with a note attached. If you forget your password later, the system can email it to you.
    Please do not place items in "Add to Cart" if you do not intend to place an order. It creates extra time and paperwork for us trying to determine if you intended to place an order and trying to collect payment. Use the Wish List feature instead.

    Q: Custom Work
    I'd like for you to make me something special, that I don't see already available in your website.

    A: We know that your keepsake has to be special for you and your story. We will gladly try to fulfill your request to your satisfaction. Custom work does take extra time and additional components may need to be ordered. Please email us to discuss what you'd like. We will then give you a price estimate. All orders must be paid before any work is started.
    «Previous Top  Next»




    Q: Gift Cards
    I'd like to ship your products directly to my friend, how will she know that I sent it to her?

    A: We do not include invoices in the packages sent directly to the gift recipient. At Checkout, you can specify a Gift Card Message, which will be handwritten on a gift card and attached to the outside of the jewelry pouch. That way, the first thing your friend will see is the personalized message from you.

    If no gift card message is stated at checkout, we will include a Packing Slip which shows the order information, without the pricing information.

    Q: Ordered Improperly
    I placed my order online for a charm but did not select the engraving option box. I specified the engraving desired in the text box, without paying the additional charge.

    A: If you don't order an item completely, we reserve the right to charge your credit card for the difference.
    «Previous Top  Next»




    Q: Engraving Info Wrong
    I received the order confirmation (invoice) in my email. I noticed that the engraving details are wrong. I only wanted one apostrophe in "Daddy's", but 4 apostrophes show up as "Daddy''''s".

    A: The extra apostrophes are a system glitch. We are aware of it, but can't fix it at this point. When we create your order, only apostrophe will be entered in the engraving.

    Q: Order Processing Time
    How Long Will It Take to Receive My Order?

    A: We know you are anxious to receive your special jewelry for yourself or a gift. Each of our pieces (except for charms) is handcrafted specifically for your order. Due to the high volume of orders we receive, the processing time is averaging 5-7 business days, not including Saturdays and Sundays. Small orders under $20 and orders for standard charms are generally shipped in 2-3 business days. Items that are engraved average 7-10 Business Days to be processed. Custom orders may take 2-3 weeks. We do encounter high volumes of orders particularly in the few weeks before a holiday, and then our processing time can be longer. Please see our HOLIDAY ORDERING DEADLINES to plan when you ned to place your order by.

    Please make note on your order at the time you place it if a specific date is requested to have your order by, such as for a birthday or death anniversary gift.
    For extenuating circumstances such as funeral and memorial services, please email or call us BEFORE placing your order to see IF we can rush the processing of your order. You may need to pay for USPS Express Shipping ($25) in order to have your pieces reach you in time. Remember that items can be shipped directly to the recipient in order to save time.

    Q: Shipping Prices
    How much does shipping cost?

    A: Since the price of the US postal mail increased in May 2007, the current shipping cost is $10 for US Priority Mail with Insurance. The standard delivery time is 2-3 days from when the item is shipped. We will email you with the date that your order is shipped.

    For orders under $50 total, you have the option to have it shipped First Class WITHOUT insurance or delivery confirmation for $5. The delivery time is longer than Priority Mail, and can take around 1 week or longer to reach some destinations.

    The US Postal System does not track shipments in progress. It only gives an update when the item is delivered to it's desination. This can obviously be a frustrating situation if you are waiting over 3 days to receive your order. Unfortunately, Priority Mail has been known to take over 1 week or more to be delivered in certain areas, particularly around major holidays. So we ask that you refrain from inquiring about the whereabouts of your package until at least 1 week after your receive the shipping email.

    EXPRESS SHIPPING:
    For faster delivery time, you also have the option of Express Service, which is 1-2 day shipping delivery for $25. When selecting this shipping method, make note in the comments box with the particular date needed by. Custom Handprint-Footprint items and Photo Jewelry cannot be rushed.Please note that there is still a processing time of 1-3 business days for us to create your order before it is shipped by Express Mail.

    Q: International Shipping
    Do you ship to other countries outside of the USA, and how much does it cost?

    A: Yes! We can ship to many other countries besides the USA. We have a Currency Converter so that you can calculate how much an item would cost you in your own currency. All prices on this website are in U.S. Dollars (USD)

    Simply order through the website's shopping cart system, making sure to enter the most complete address possible. Select "International" shipping. The cost is $16.00 US for Global Priority Air Mail, which normally takes 5-10 business days to arrive. Global Priority to Canada is $14.00 US. If you'd like an upgraded service, such as registered or global express, please email us and we will inquire about a cost estimate, which you would be responsible to pay for any additional postage costs.

    Your local government may require you to pay a duty or customs fee based on the total product value. We are required by law to fill out a customs form on the package. However, we cannot predict how much, if any, your fee will be. Please inquire at your local post office beforehand with the approximate product dollar amount to calculate your customs fee. We are NOT Responsible for any local customs or duties fees that you may have to pay.

    Most of our international customers use the Paypal option to successfully complete payment. You can also use your major credit card to pay. If the system does not allow you to use your credit card, we will send you a Paypal invoice so we can complete payment.

    Q: System Wouldn't let me advance
    I was in the checkout process, but I received an error screen, so I closed my browser. Now what?

    A: As with all electronic systems, there are sometimes glitches for unknown reasons. First try to click on the Back button or Refresh button in your internet browser. Sometimes this does the trick. Double check that the information you previously input still shows.
    If you truly cannot advance, close your browser and enter a new order. Please be aware that you may receive an email for the order you were not able to complete. Since there will be no payment attached to it, we will delete the erroneous order in our system.
    Please check your email for receipts of your invoice, payment confirmation, and any questions we may have for you regarding your order.
    «Previous Top  Next»




    Q: Credit Card Rejected
    I entered my credit card information in the payment screen (blue background), but it said my card was rejected. What do I do?

    A: For security purposes, the billing information you enter must match the address of where you receive your credit card statements. If you would like your order to be shipped to a different location, enter that in the shipping fields. Address mismatch is the most common reason for a card being declined. Please double check the card number and expiration date you input before hitting the submit button.
    You can try clicking on the Refresh button in your internet browser to reenter your information. If the credit card is still not accepted, please call us ASAP at 1-888-325-2828 so that we can process your card information over the phone and get your order scheduled for completion. Please do not send credit card numbers by email, as this method is not secure.

    Important Note for Debit Cards: Even if a transaction is declined, your debit card may show that the amount was taken out. This is only an Authorization. Since the transaction was not completed, the charge will reverse in approx 3 business days, and the funds will be available again.

    Q: Warranty/ Repairs
    What is your policy on repairs?

    A: We try to make our jewelry as sturdy as possible. We are constantly trying new methods and components to minimize breakage. However, jewelry can break from normal wear and tear, and from getting caught on items like sweaters. Please keep this and all small parts away from children, as it could pose a choking hazard.

    We stand by our products and offer a 60 day warranty on our jewelry. We reserve the right to determine if you will receive a replacement piece, or a refund of the product price. Gift recipients will receive either a replacement piece, or store credit; a cash refund will not be issued.
    Shipping charges are non-refundable.
    Please read our Care and Cleaning Guide.
    Metal items that become scratched may need to be reworked and polished. There may be a nominal labor charge for this or to replace lost components. If charms are lost from your bracelet, you can purchase a replacement at half price. You must send back your items for us to repair to take advantage of this special.
    Email us first to discuss your needs before sending back an item for repair.

    If you are sending back an item for return or exchange, please Insure the item for the full retail price. We cannot be responsible for uninsured items that get lost, stolen, or damaged in transit. Our mailing address:
