Our New Website is Live!

We are so excited to announce our new web site, after many long months of planning, deciding, creating, working, working and working on it!  We love the new, clean design and hope our categories and layout will make it easier for everyone to find what products they are looking for.  We have a lot of hand stamped necklaces, bracelets, charms and key rings and customers would often say it was difficult to find just what they’re looking for.

We have now simplified a bit with fewer categories to browse through, but have added a Collections menu and Gift Ideas menu.  We hope this allows people to browse through to just look around or to browse and find something specific they have in mind.  But of course, as always, we are here if you need any help!  You can email us, chat with us or just give us a call.

Oh and to celebrate, we are having a 15% off sale through Thursday!  So check us out…

Our New Website Coming Soon!

With summer ending and school starting, we at Heart On Your Wrist are now looking at what’s next for us!  We are so excited to be working on our new website, which we hope to unveil soon. Over the years, we’ve made a lot of changes around here. We’ve moved to a bigger studio, added many new products and product lines, and continued to improve how we make & deliver our jewelry. One thing that hasn’t changed as much has been our website. Sure, we’ve made some small changes here and there, but the underlying site hasn’t changed much for several years.

Heart On Your Wrist Unique Personalized JewelryThat’s changing shortly, and we’re excited to share it with you! We try to provide truly the best service you’ll find when shopping for h and stamped jewelry. But having great service includes having a friendly, easy-to-use website, and our current falls short of where we want to be.

The new site will be easier for customers to navigate & use, and will be nicer to look at, too. It will also allow us to make future improvements more quickly, which means we can continue to make it even better going forward. We hope to make shopping on our site just as much fun as receiving your jewelry!  And we can’t wait to start getting some great feedback from our favorite people, our customers!

Chunky is the New Black

We here in our studio have been playing around with lots of new materials and ideas this summer, and have decided that chunky is definitely the new black.

I’ve always loved substantial jewelry – not necessarily huge charms but materials that have substance, that you can feel when you hold them and wear them.  This is why I’ve always, since day one of my business, used thicker metals for charms whenever possible.

Stamping on thicker charms just looks better, and keeps customers coming back for more quality hand stamped jewelry.

Chunky Resting Hearts NecklaceOur new “Chunky Resting Hearts Necklace” takes charm thickness a step further by being what can only be described as “chunky”, and beautiful of course!   Jewelry like this can make a statement with or without personalization.  The copper metal we use comes out in this gorgeous hue of orange-brown.  You really have to see it in person to fully appreciate it, it is just so pretty.

The small silver heart is made of solid fine silver.  Both hearts are handmade here in our California studio.  Check out the video below to see for yourself how substantial and pretty these charms are!

Rock Art Transformed into a Necklace

Rock Art turned into jewelry

Ah yes, it’s summer.  And when the kids are not in camp, they are tasked with finding ways to entertain themselves, much as we did when we were kids.

We are lucky to have a few kids in the neighborhood who don’t live far from us, and our kids are able to congregate and hang amongst the houses and yards. 

I was impressed the other day to find that my daughter and her friends had occupied themselves for a few hours with ‘rock art’ (a term we came up with, but I’m sure we didn’t invent).  They used pretty Sharpie pens on the rocks in front of our house, and decorated each one with designs, words and pictures.  When they showed me their collection, I was so impressed with their creativity.

Infinity Rock Art

There were a couple rocks in the collection that caught my eye – I just loved the images on them. The infinity with ‘love’ incorporated into the line was so unique and sweet. I decided it would look great on a necklace, so I took a close-up photo of it and got working on the photo in Photoshop.  I cleaned it up a bit and had to get rid of the little gold dots, but what I ended up with was a beautiful and sweet image to etch onto a charm.  A few hours later we had a sterling silver version of it, ready for photos! 

We had a lot of fun with this idea and wanted to share it with our customers.  If you see an image or draw an image you just love and would love to wear, let us know!  We would love to make it into a charm for you.

They took the rock art a step further by decorating rocks with the names and themes of each of the businesses on our little strip where our studio is.  Each business got a set of rocks that represented their business or had the business name.  They left the rocks at the doorstep of each unit.  What a sweet surprise for them to find at their doorsteps the following day!
