Sneak peek | Connections get personalized

Wednesday, April 27th, 2011

Mother’s Day is fast approaching — and we’re working on adding the option of further personalizing our modern family necklaces by having the option of engraving names on each Connection necklace ring (on both sides).

Here’s the first tiny personalized ring:

Our connection necklaces are already a great way of keeping your family close to your heart, and inscribing their names just makes it that much sweeter.

Update: The option is now available in the store:

Shop news | Written in the stars: new zodiac pendants

Wednesday, April 6th, 2011

We’ve just added a couple of new high-polished stainless steel tab pendants — they join our QR barcode pendant and our Twitter handle pendant.

Both new pendants are stellar (yes, pun intended!) as they are zodiac pendants – one for traditional astrology, and the other one based on the Chinese Zodiac.

Shop news & giveaway | New: QR code and Twitter handle pendants

Tuesday, April 5th, 2011

We’ve just added two new high-polished stainless steel tab pendants to our collection: a new Twitter handle pendant and a QR code pendant.

Social media geeks: rejoice! We’ve added another addition to our Twitter handle jewelry, a pendant that is graphical and simple in design and of course, personalized with your Twitter handle. :)

Perfect for the guy or girl you know who loves’em some Twitter!

Our QR code pendant is available with pre-set QR codes (“I love you”, “I <3 geeks” and “Barcodes FTW”), or you can choose a custom QR code, where you just give us the message, and we’ll generate a QR code for you. They’re great for secret messages, or allowing someone to quickly link to your website with a scan of your pendant using a code-reading phone app.

Both are perfect gifts for that high-tech loving geek in your life!

We’re giving away a QR code pendant this month!

To enter this giveaway, comment on this blog post with your name and tell us:

What message or URL would you encode if you won the QR code pendant?

Please, only one comment/entry per person. We’ll randomly draw the winner on Monday, May 2nd at noon (EDT), but if the comment doesn’t have the above question answered, we will re-draw. Good luck!

Sneak peek | New geek chic: QR code pendant & Twitter pendant

Monday, March 28th, 2011

Here’s a quick sneak peek to two upcoming additions to our modern necklace pendant line. We wanted to do a Twitter-inspired jewelry piece that was a little more guy-friendly, since there are plenty of women out there now how are sporting their own Twitter charmer necklaces.

Two months, we introduced the QR code cufflinks and we had always hinted that a QR pendant would be coming too! Expect them to be available for purchase by next week!

Shop news | New products: QR code geekery and daisies

Tuesday, January 25th, 2011

In the past few weeks, we’ve added a number of new products to the shop! In addition to our latest Charmer necklaces, we’ve also added some geek chic QR code cufflinks:

We’ve already got a new pendant design underway for new QR code pendants, and they’ll be available in a couple of months. However, in the meantime, we did make some custom QR code pendants with our existing large solid stainless steel pendants:

(If you scan the above image with a barcode scanner, you’ll see that the pendants link to the customer’s website! :)

We’ve also just added a new line of family necklaces that are much like our Connection necklaces, but with a flowery twist:

They’re available with one to nine flowers, so that you can have each daisy represent a family member. Or you can get a necklace to play ”He loves me/He loves me not” — but make sure you get an odd number of flowers ;)

Sneak peek | Lucky elephant!

Wednesday, September 29th, 2010

This is a little sneak peek of the Select Blend contemporary jewelry piece for October 2010. The first image shows some of the really quick sketches — and we do mean quick! — along with the first engraved wood prototype.  The second image shows the final design, which is the same illustration, but done in the negative so that the whole elephant appears raised.

We’ve always wanted to do something with an elephant, because they’re a symbol of good luck — and I heard they were even more lucky if the trunk was pointed up.

The engraved wood elephant necklace will be available from October 1 to 31st, 2010. Once the month is done, it won’t be available again!

P.S. If you’re interested in seeing other new product sneak peeks, check out our Facebook page.  We usually post photos there first ;)
