Charm bracelets have been around for ages and are still thought of as a timeless style, hence why they are often heirloom pieces. They usually signify different aspects of the wearers personality and interests. These unique, one-of-a-kind bracelets make for excellent gifts that will leave your loved one touched by the thoughtfulness and detail. We've had the opportunity to make quite a few of these personalized bracelets. Here are some of the creative ideas our customers have had when giving and designing charm bracelets:

For mom or grandma, customize a charm for each of the children or grandchildren. Depending on her style, you can keep it simple with single initials or you can have full names with birth dates and even birthstones. This is a great gift option "from the family" that everyone can take part in.

Create a narrative story with various charms representing monumental events. For example, design charms that mark achievements throughout their schooling and give it to them on graduation day. Or for every birthday design a new charm that symbolizes the past year. Give them a charm on each birthday or wait until a special one and give them the completed bracelet. The example below is a bracelet that we helped a dad create for his daughter.  We used our online jewelry designer to customize a variety of different charms for him.

Describe the recipient with each charm. Let the bracelet show their attributes, aspirations, hopes, and dreams. You're sure to leave them speechless with this concept - they will feel complimented and motivated every time they wear it.

Give them a starter charm bracelet. Design one charm to get them started and either you or the recipient can add charms down the road for special occasions.

Looking for a non-traditional design? Add a few charms that represent their hobbies and interests to separate bangles - this way they have the option to wear them all together or individually.
