Adoption Love

November 20, 2009

Julie T.  ordered a necklace to celebrate her adorable baby Owen.  Please read her moving story below:

“Thank you so much for my very beautiful photo necklace!! I couldn’t be more thrilled!!! I am also truly amazed that you and your artists were able to complete my order so quickly. I placed my order on a Tuesday morning and by Thursday afternoon of that SAME WEEK, I was wearing it! I had told you that it was a special gift to celebrate our adoption day and that I was very excited to start wearing it so you made sure that I was able to do that as soon as possible!!! Thank you so much for that!

It is also every bit as beautiful, if not more,  than I imagined it would be. Those tiny sterling frames hold very precious cargo…. my little guy Owen, who was adopted after ten long years of trying to start a family and two failed adoptions.

We live in Houston and we were supposed to leave town to be there for his out-of-state birth the day that hurricane Ike hit our area last year. Our trip was delayed for several days because of the heavy damage to our area, and then 2 hours before we left town, we also found out from his birthmother that our baby was going to be a boy and not a girl!!! We left Houston that evening in the dark, since there was no electricity in Houston at the time, and returned 2 weeks later with the light of our lives!

His adoption has been final for one year this month, National Adoption Month, by the way! I am so grateful to you for giving me a very special way to commemorate such a big event in our lives. I will treasure it always, and Owen is enjoying it too!! He holds it in his little hands and points at his pictures everyday! I have also had several compliments on it in just a few days. I have given out your web address to two of my friends who already can’t wait to place an order!!!

Thank you so much again for such a beautiful necklace and for your excellent customer service!!

Sincerely,

Julie T. “

Susan Family Pictures

“Dear Kathy,

My mother has three sisters, Susie, Margie and Cathy and a half-sister Frances.  They have been through a lot of loss in their lives recently and are very close.  I wanted to do something really wonderful for my aunts because they had been through so much.

I sent a picture of my mom with her family when they were very young and the last picture that was taken of all of them (including their younger sister Frances) together with their mother. These gifts were presented to them last week at the party with all their family around them (nieces, nephew, grandchildren and spouses).  They started crying with emotions when they saw the picture of them with my mom, their beloved sister.  It made the whole party and I am sure my aunts will never take their photo charm off.

Kathy Lo was wonderful to work with.  I was crazy with nervousness to get these gifts in time and wanted them to be perfect.  Kathy sent them to me overnight without my even asking because it was important to me and they were perfect.  All her staff is so kind and a pleasure to work with.  It’s rare these days that you get to work with a company that puts their customers first.

Thank you Kathy for everything you did to make my aunts so happy”

Coley-Furstow-NecklaceI must just tell you…that I ordered a necklace last week.  Not only did it show up faster then I expected but the end product was exactly what I was looking for! I had done a lot of research to find this type of necklace/pendant for months. when I finally can across your website I was excited. Plus I like how you can download you own images and crop and place them exactly how you want on the pendant. I also like the option of using black and white or sepia. SMART! fantastic idea kathy! I was happy with the end product that I ordered another one. so excited to see the next end product!
Thank you for me being able to make my mother’s and friend’s 50th birthday gifts so fantastic. They will definitely tear up!
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

- Coley

So happy kathy! I’ve ordered 4 more in the last 2 days. Think everyone I know will be getting your creations as gifts! Absolutely love it. Almost wish I could make it myself. But it wouldn’t turn out as fantastic as yours!

- Coley again

Thanks Coley.  We love making our customers so happy!

When we receive a nice letter from a customer, we put it on our “Wall of Love”.

Here is one we received the other day.

Custom Photo Pet Keepsake Necklace

A Custom Photo Necklace to Honor Weezer

“Thank you so much for the wonderful piece you made for me (really, for my girlfriend). Our dog’s name was Weezer and we had to put her to sleep last week. The piece of jewelry you made came so quickly — my gal is wearing it as we speak. Thanks again.”
Chris

A toast to what matters the most!

October 16, 2008

In these times of economic hardship we have to keep things in perspective, and realize that its not the “things” really matter that much, but the people in our lives. Our American ideals of materialism and individualism which got us into this mess to begin with, and what is happening now maybe a good wake-up call for all of us to re-examine our values. One of our customers had us make her a charm to remind her of this.

And lets raise of toast to the praise she gave us as well! (…and yes this is shameless self-promotion.)

“The picture is of my 2 teenagers. I’ve worn it everyday since i got it and i don’t want to take it off. I get so many compliments on it every single day, and now have 2 coworkers that want the internet site info! Thanks again, you did an amazing job!”
-Carrie Sicard Flynn

Who matters the most to you? If there are people in your life that you want to raise a toast to, shoot us an email with a photo and their story, and we’ll post it on the blog.

Love and Marriage Momento Necklace

This was a gift from a newly wed to his wife on their first Valentine’s Day just after the birth of their first child. What a wonderful keepsake reminder of a special day and a very special newborn.
