Where to look for jewellry?

chidsmumdrum · Jul 27, 2017 2:09PM

I'm 30 this year, and i'm thinking i'd like a nice necklace off H, but i aren't sure what i want. I would like something a bit different, and something that perhaps symbolises H and the babies in some way.

I like to go to independant jewellers when I get something special. You get better quality stones and there is movement on prices. Where do you live? I love Brighton and Bournemouth for jewellery shops. What item do you want? Bracelet, earrings, ring necklace?

How about looking at birth stones if you want it to symbolise the children and H?

Have you seen Poppy Sparkles on FB? I love her stuff and she is an ex hitcher.

I also love Bianca Jones jewellery x

I've had a look on notonthehighstreet, there's a few pieces on there i'd like so i've emailed links to H.

I'll check out the other recommendations though ladies thank you.

Lauren, i'm in Stoke on Trent, not really known for it's jewelry stuff, if i wanted a plate or a bowl, i'd be fine.

Don't know if there's anything suitable here, but might be worth a browse in case you see anything (my H is one of the businesses involved in this website so I can highly recommend them)

i got this from H when i had coco:

www.notonthehighstreet.com/.../gold-and-silver-mummy-baby-necklace

but if you wanted both babies on there, you could go for something like this:

www.notonthehighstreet.com/.../new-years-mummy-and-children-necklace

www.notonthehighstreet.com/.../personalised-family-necklace

or something like this, you could maybe have their birthstones?

Bluewater, thanks. I can't get the first 3 links to work but the others look ok. I only wear silver, so i'd like the bottom one in silver.

I was about to ask if you're from Stoke! I knew from the way your OP was worded Smile I'm from Crewe originally so not far! Anyway, sorry for derailing.

I agree there's some nice personalised bits on NOTHS and also any little independent jewellers seem to have some unique bits.

McSquirtle, as if my posting style gives my location away.

McSquirtle · Mar 15, 2013 3:04PM

Very much so to someone whos local anyway Big Smile

chidsmumdrum · Mar 15, 2013 3:17PM

that's amused me that has. Big Smile

thanks for all your lovely links ladies, i've sent about 20 that i like. He can narrow it down from there and at least get an idea of the kind of thing i'm after.

I'd head to the jewellery quarter and have something designed and made especially for you perhaps even by your H as a surprise? I'm guessing with you wanting something different that a links or Pandora type is out? Tiffany also do some that you can add charms to if you wanted symbols for your family though some really aren't cheap
