It’s a milestone in your life when one of your children graduates. Whether it’s from PreKingergarten or college, it’s a moment you remember for years to come. And moments like that deserve to be marked in time. I think there’s no better way to do that than with jewelry. Let me tell you a little story…
Years ago, a dear friend and long-time customer purchased a gift from me when her beautiful daughter graduated from high school. She gifted her a pair of our petite diamond huggie earrings. This particular young lady was headed off to the dream job of many young girls – a professional ballerina. And these sweet earrings marked her passage from graduating from a top high school to heading off to pursue her dream. Years later, she came to me, having recently gotten engaged, and told me that she wanted me to make her wedding jewelry. (What an honor!) I suggested that we make drops to hang off of the petite diamond huggie earrings she had been gifted at graduation. That way, should could continue to wear her wedding jewelry daily for years to come – something that can’t be said of a wedding dress! She loved the idea and we got to work. And the result was beautiful.
The key takeaway there is that classic jewelry choices are timeless and are a wonderful way to commemorate special moments in your life and that of your children. And we have LOTS to choose from! Below are some gorgeous, classic gift ideas for your graduate. . .
If you REALLY want to do something fun, we have done several custom pieces for graduates this year and they are really something special! One of our favorites is a hinged 14k yellow gold bracelet that is engraved on the inside with a special message from her parents and her year of graduation. This is definitely a piece that she can wear for 50+ years to come, as it will never go out of style and the sweet words are on the inside. What a fun idea this mama had. And I LOVE making your special ideas come to life!
