Personalised Sterling Silver Secret Message Moon Necklace

It’s a day of ponder and thought today across our Great Britain and afar as we remember the brave men and women of our armed services past and present and the world over, Words cannot say enough of their sacrifice ” Lest We Forget ” So I hope everyone’s Fireworks night went off with a bang and you all kept safe, We went to my hometown and thankfully the rain held off, Such a wonderful sight to see. I know everyone is gearing up for Xmas but really you would think it was coming up in the next week, Just ridiculous, I love Xmas, It’s the best time of the year for me but to have such a long run up to it just takes that special charm away from it. Well that’s my take on it, So let’s crack on with our new personalised sterling silver secret message Moon necklace, As usual completely unique to IndiviJewels  you are only going to be able to purchase this from us unless someone does a bad job of copying us lol. We are always trying to think up new ideas for expanding our Secret message range which can be more trickier then you think, You have to think of size you don’t want something that is to big or small, It has to have enough room for a decent sized message or the point of it has gone. Shape is also another problem, You could rattle off no end of shapes but depending on angles the person receiving the necklace won’t be able to see it!  So with all things moon themed at the moment we thought we would make an IndiviJewel take on it and we think it’s done the job. When you make a piece of jewellery unique as this it takes time to make and this is no exception, We cut out two lengths of sterling silver sheet, Same width but one a little longer than the other, Etch the text of your choice to which you can have 24 and 15 characters including spaces then comes the hard part shaping the two pieces of silver into the shape of a half moon which as you can imagine  could be a little tricky. We then solder the joins together then file away all the excess solder and using various sandpapers to get it to the point of polishing, The two loops for the chain and star are also soldered on, Once all this is finished it needs a good polish to make it all shiny, Clean all the polishing compound off them heat it up and put in the pickle pot to rid the piece of any last dirt and then drop in the tumbler for a few hours and Hey Ho one lovely unique personalised necklace ready for you to wear. As you can see a lot of time and effort goes into making just one of these piece’s but if you want to make a unique piece of jewellery then hard work is a must. So with Xmas insight this would make a unique personalised keepsake so hopefully you will like our latest necklace. OK time to go so till the next time ” Don’t  be like the the rest be an IndiviJewel “.

Personalised Sterling Silver Vintage Tag Necklace

It’s the spookiest day of the year again and what a nightmare this week has been, When the change in season comes so do all the germs as well, I have had more shakes,Shivers and sweats this week than John Travolta in Saturday night fever! The kids have gone trick or treating so I’m sure they will come back with next weeks dinner, Haribo’s and Drumsticks, Those were the days! So it feels a little weird at the moment going to work, As I go in the dark and then when I’m finished I come back in the dark but not to worry my workshop is only at the bottom of my garden! Warmth and sunshine would be most welcome right about now as I sit here wondering if I should put my open fire on as I’m absolutely freezing. Maybe a pair of those glasses with the pictures of beaches and cold cocktails in would keep me in fine spirits these coming Winter months or I could just relocate to Australia. I suppose I should really write about our new product as that is my job! Well we are more than over the moon with this little creation, As always we try to make something a little different and this personalised sterling silver vintage tag we feel is a little gem of a unique charm that we can go on and make some more great creations with. So we like all things vintage here at IndiviJewels so why not make a piece of vintage jewellery, We wanted it to have a modern feel but from a period of time when things looked classy, Hence the very cool font we used on the main image as you can see but no worries we do offer other fonts if this is not to your liking, Just check the product info. Now this charm maybe small but it’s a little intricate when it’s been cut out, As you have to smooth all the edges without filing them away or making them look uneven, So you have to have a soft touch for this which to my surprise I’m not that bad! Must be my small hands. Now this may be a little confusing so I will try my best to un-confuse you, We have added this tag as two separate products, One is called ” The most precious gift ” which is for the birth of a newborn with all those important details. This product will not change but the necklace I’m writing about now you can have whatever text you can fit on, Hopefully that clears up that little problem. Now as you can see in the middle image you have the choice of a natural finish or if you want to look a little more vibrant then a blackened finish is for you. If by any chance you would like a different shape tag then just contact us and we will see what we can do for you. I have already made another piece with this tag but haven’t had the chance to photograph it yet but that’s one to look out for. As this was our new charm we have just added it to a sterling silver chain because we wanted everybody’s eyes to be focused on the charm itself. Right the kids have just come back with two huge pumpkin bags of sweets so I’m off to see what they will give me, Till the next time don’t be like all the rest, Be an IndiviJewel! Happy Halloween
