Many Variations On Personalized Pendants

By Casandra Newton


Personalized pendants are part of the handmade jewelry revolution that is sweeping across the world these days. They make wonderfully thoughtful presents for family, friends, and loved ones and are sure to bring a smile on their face. You can, of course, order some for yourself, and declare your mind to the world through them, in a subtle way.

Personalized pendants are not just about engraved names these days. There is so much more that you can do with them. Here are just a few ideas of the ways in which you can have a truly personal and thoughtful gift made for someone you care about:

This might be the first things that occurs to people, but that is no reason to not mention it. Names can be added on to pendants in interesting ways: they can be written in runes or in fancy writing. Numbers are also a very basic idea: you can have birth dates added to jewelry, making it truly the property of the person it is meant for.

Favorite colors can also be incorporated into these pieces of jewelry. As they can be made from all sorts of substances, such as resin, clay etc., it is possible to make them in an array of colors. You can have green pendants for a nature lover, with their name on it. You do not have to stay limited to just one color: you can even have pictures added to the jewelry or have a sketch made on it.

Hobbies are another idea to incorporate into jewelry. For example, if someone loves writing letters, you can have a stamp embedded into a pendant. For lovers of cartography, maps can make wonderful pendants: this idea is even better if the map shows a place that is significant, say, some place they love or want to visit some day.

You can even take items to be converted into a pendant. For example, anything that has special memories can be made into jewelry. Say, a pretty china plate which was a gift at your wedding but broke due to an accident can be incorporated into jewelry. This would make an absolutely delightful and special gift.

Natural substances such as dried flowers can also be made into jewelry. Dried flowers coated with resin are very popular as pendants and some sellers of jewelry will allow you to take your own collection of dried flowers to them.

There really is no end to the kind of pendants that you can have created. You can look online for some ideas and pictures and then take them to a seller of jewelry to see if they can replicate it for you.

If there is no shop in your vicinity that offers to make such pendants for you, you can easily find one online. There are many sellers of personalized pendants online, and you can tell them, over chat or e-mail, exactly how you want your piece of jewelry to be made.
