Unique Jewelry Gifts for Her

This post contains affiliate links. Please read my disclosure policy for details.  This post is not sponsored by TomDesign Shop and the opinions on their jewelry are my own.  I did have the wonderful opportunity to work for this shop from Dec 2016-May 2017 and I used my employee discount well. 😃

If you have seen any of my Stitch Fix posts, you may have noticed the beautiful necklaces that I usually wear.  Most of the jewelry that I wear comes from Tom Design Shop on Etsy, and I have been wanting to write a post about this jewelry for some time.  With Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day coming up, now just seemed like a great time.  Whether you are looking for something for yourself or a gift idea for the women in your life, you will love the ideas in this post!

Personalized Locket

These lockets are one of their bestsellers, and it is the necklace that I wear most often in my photos.  The front can be engraved with a letter, word, symbol, or date.  You can also have a message engraved inside on the left, right, or both.  Small lockets come in 3 shapes (heart, circle, oval). Medium and large lockets come in a circle.  All 3 sizes are available in gold, silver, and rose gold.

When I purchased my locket (medium in silver), I was at the beginning of a difficult life challenge and I wanted a message that would help me focus on being positive.  I had my initial engraved on the front (upper script font).  On the inside (thin script font), I had “Choose to be Happy” on one side, and “I am Strong” with a heart below on the other.  It is a wonderful reminder to me every day that no matter what is going on in my life, I am strong and loved and can choose to be happy.

Customized silver locket

I chose an 18-20″ chain for this locket because I like that type of chain and the option of different lengths. It is different than the chain that usually comes with this locket.

 

Three Heart Necklace

This is one of my favorite necklaces and it is a perfect gift for Valentine’s Day, a birthday, or an anniversary.  This necklace usually comes with 3 hearts (gold, silver, and rose gold).  I added an additional rose gold charm to mine so it represents my four kids.  You can choose the color (gold, silver, or rose gold) and length of the chain.  My chain is silver and is 16-18″.  *If you want to add additional hearts or charms, you would need to click on the listing to add a charm to your jewelry and then tell them which charm to add.*

Gemstone Necklaces

In November 2018, TomDesign introduced a new natural gemstone collection and I absolutely loved them.  There are 20 different stones you can choose from in a bar necklace or 13 stones in a raw gemstone necklace.  My oldest daughter knows how much I love purple so she bought me the Tanzanite necklace (with a 16″ gold chain) for Christmas.  My daughter’s boyfriend got her the Raw Aquamarine necklace and it is beautiful as well.

Birthstone Bar Necklace

I enjoyed helping with these necklaces when I worked for TomDesign because each one was unique.  My necklace is a 1.5″ thick gold bar on a 20″ chain.  I had our family birthstones put on the front, and a message engraved on the back to remind me that my family is forever mine.

Vertical Engraved Birthstone Bar Necklace

This necklace was a family gift for my mother-in-law for Christmas 2016.  I was in charge of the group gift for my in-law’s, and I wanted to do something for my mother-in-law that would have the birthstones of each of her grandkids.  The vertical birthstone bar necklace was perfect for this gift. These necklaces also come in gold, silver, and rose gold. I chose a rose gold 1.25″ thin bar and had 3 additional bars added to the necklace.  The top initial is her son or daughter, the next initial is their spouse, and then each grandkid in that family in order. *If you would like to create a necklace like this, I suggest contacting the shop so they can make a custom listing for you.*

I loved how my mother in law’s necklace turned out, so I got a second necklace made for me.  Font: Modern

Vertical Birthstone Bar Necklace

For Mother’s Day 2017, I had this vertical birthstone bar necklace made for my mom with all of her grandkids birthstones in order.  This necklace was made with a 1.75″ gold thick bar.  At the time, she had 10 grandkids and I knew there would eventually be a few more added.  She now has 2 more grandkids, so we plan on adding another bar with their birthstones to her necklace within the next couple of years.

Initial and Date Bracelet Set

In February 2017, the Today Show with Kathie Lee and Hoda featured these bracelet sets on the Valentine Gifts segment.  It was a popular gift that Valentine’s Day, so of course, I had to have a set too. 😃❤

Engraved Birthstone Bracelet

My father-in-law was looking for a gift suggestion for Christmas the year we gave my mother-in-law the birthstone necklace above.  This rose gold bracelet was the perfect compliment to her necklace.  It has her kids’ birthstones on top and then my inlaw’s initials underneath.

 

 

I also had a birthstone bracelet made for my mom for Mother’s Day with each of her kids’ birthstones. Her bracelet is gold and has “mom” engraved on it with the brush script font.

Other Ideas

TomDesign has many wonderful ideas for personalized jewelry.  They can take a signature of a loved one or a fingerprint/paw print and engrave it on a necklace, bracelet, or keychain. I don’t have personal photos of their handwriting and fingerprint/paw print items, but I love to see examples of them and read the stories behind certain pieces that they share on social media.  They also have a new line of zodiac items that I think are pretty cool.

TomDesign also carries custom items for Men (cuff links, tie clips, money clips, keychains) and Children.  My daughters love the butterfly necklaces that I got them, but there are many different necklace and bracelet options to choose from.

 

As you can see, I love the jewelry that I have gotten over the past few years from TomDesign Shop.  The owners (Debbie and Mark) were wonderful to work for and they offer incredible customer service.  To see everything that they carry, check out TomDesign Shop on Etsy!
