Personalized Jewelry | Shop HandPicked

It's no secret that I love a good monogram. The motto "if it's moving, monogram it" is one that I can absolutely support. Ever since I got married a few years ago, my monogram collection took a bit of a hit since my last initial initial changed. My feelings towards personalized and engraved jewelry, however, remain just as strong!

A few weeks ago, I was introduced to the southern jewelry shop called HandPicked. We have a physical location here in Greenville, South Carolina in addition to 14 other stores in the southeast! HandPicked works with skilled artisans to create high quality unique pieces of jewelry, and they have a large selection of monogrammed and personalized accessories. They recently gifted me one of their rose gold plated bar necklaces and let me choose what I wanted engraved on the bar! 

At first, I thought it would look pretty to have my monogram engraved on it, but since the bar was a bit small for a monogram, I ended up going with our wedding date in Roman numerals. I am in love with this necklace for so many reasons: 

No. 1 - It's personalized to me, and I love wearing pieces that tell a story and have meaning behind them. 

No. 2 - It's a high quality piece of jewelry, and can be purchased at such a great price! 

No. 3 - It's the perfect length. I find that sometimes with chain necklaces, I can feel like they're tight or choking me if they don't hit me in just the right spot. The length of my necklace was just right - not too short, not too long! 

This piece would make the perfect gift for any of your best girls! You could have it personalized with a special date, a Bible verse, a word to remember, or the coordinates of a place that's special to you. I recently saw someone had bracelets made with the coordinates of the place that she delivered her children - how sweet is that! These are just a few ideas to inspire you to create your own personalized piece.

If you're local to Greenville, I highly recommend checking out the HandPicked store over at the shops at Greenridge. Take a minute to browse through the monograms and personalized jewelry on their website, and then go watch this video to get a chuckle! 

XOXO,
