Personalized Jewelry!

2009-09-03T09:45:00.000-07:00

I am SO excited about our new line of personalized sterling jewelry. These hand-stamped necklaces are fabulous and can be completely customized. They make great gifts whether for a mom, grandma, bride, or even just as a treat for yourself. Reasonably priced, these necklaces come in various shapes and designs and are hand-stamped to include names, design charms, and even sparkly swarovski crystals.

COMING SOON - Stay tuned for the release of our new exclusive design for pregnant moms - they're super cute! Gold-filled designs will also be released shortly. Visit our boutique or online store to see our collection, or, design one of your own.

Here are a select amount from our collection:

The outside ring/washer can say whatever you'd like--a quote, names, it's completely your choice. The center mini locket can have a design or initial on the outside and a name and crystal inside.

Great as a wedding or anniversary gift, this locket features the couple's initials and includes a wedding date--or any other special date--as well as the phrase "Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow." The quote can be replaced with the couple's names, as well.

Hold a new baby close to your heart with this locket featuring footprints on the outside and your baby's name on the inside. You can also include a birthdate. Finish your locket off with a birthstone swarovski crystal or any color you'd like.

Perfect for a mom of two or a couple, this necklace has to charms that can feature two names and two swarovskis. You can also add a design charm.

A special way to show off your family tree - or a symbolic tree of life.

There is also the option to select a cup or flat disc and have just your name printed. Add a crystal and/or a design charm to add personality to your design.

Save the Date!

2009-08-25T17:30:00.001-07:00

Save the Dates have become the norm. While at one time they were used primarily by Brides and Grooms who hoped to secure their out of town guests and simply have them “save the date,” they are now sent out for all types of events, including Bar/Bat Mitzvahs, and are often sent to entire guest lists. If nothing else, they force planners to start organizing their guest list, beginning the often tedious task of gathering guest addresses. This saves money--and added stress--helping to avoid spending rush fees for invitation calligraphy, or corrections due to hasty typing mistakes. It also allows planners to have a better idea of their budget.

Save the Dates can range from simple announcements asking guests to save the date, giving minimal information such as names, dates, locations, and the typical "formal invitation to follow" text. They can also include website information, accommodation information, other weekend event information, or anything else you'd like to include.

The Save the Dates offered at Sweet Emotions range in styles and prices. Here are a few of our recent favorites:

Blake's Save the Date was designed to complement his "Tree of Life" and Nature theme. This letterpress design was customized on arturo paper with a dual ink design.

(Front of Postcard)

(Back of Postcard)

Ashleigh & Justin's Postcard Save the Date was designed using a romantic picture of the couple as the postcard front, with an informative back. We played on the letters of the couple's name to play up the wedding theme by highlighting "I Do"

Amy & Chad's Save the Date was designed with multiple pages to include the couple's wedding information and accommodation information while still exuding an elegant feel. The black and white design is highlighted with a Claret hued ribbon--tied in a "knot"-- which binds the pages together.

If the color palette or "theme" is known at the time of selecting the Save the Dates, many planners are opting to coordinate the Save the Dates with the rest of the event stationery. Here are a few samples of some various types of save the dates:

This accordian tri-fold styled Save the Date is another style perfect for a planner who has more to say.

A simple yet elegant way to ask guests to save the date.

Scratch off designs are a cute way to reveal your special date

This self-mailer design is economical and environmentally conscious--reducing the need for envelopes.

This design provide guests with a sticker which can be applied directly to their calendar.

This save the date doubles as a notebook.

These luggage tags are particularly apropos for desitnation weddings or for any out of town guests.

One of many magnet designs.

Other trendy styles for Save the Dates include photo booth style pictures, messages in a bottle, picture viewers, wine bottles, golf bottles, edibles, etc.

This signature tunnel burn means the carved candle is yours to enjoy for years to come. It's the perfect keepsake!

From start to finish, these soaps and candles are custom carved. Soaps and candles can be carved with an initial, a monogram or a completely customized name or phrase. Custom logo work and private label are also available.
