Bracelet for commemorating birth of our boys?

9 replies

Hi, wonder if anyone can help.

I had a son last year and another one on the way next month. I want to have a piece of jewellery to commemorate their births (after years of infertility we are soooo lucky ) but I don't want an eternity ring as I don't have pretty delicate fingers!

I would love some sort of bracelet that I could engrave their names/DOBs on, but the problem is I don't have dainty wrists and I'm really struggling to find anything. I did buy something at a craft fair but cos it wasn't gold it caused an allergic reaction!

I don't have an unlimited budget, but am basically looking for something that can be tailor made for me, or a jewellery retailer that sells bracelets for 'larger' ladies.

Any ideas?

Hi,

I've just had some lovely silver jewelery made by fingerprintjewelery.co.uk. They do pendants, bracelets, charms etc. with your child's fingerprint and name engraved, or you can have footprints and handprints too! They do a lovely sweetie bracelet that stretches to fit.

What about a pandora bracelet, you choose the length you want and then could pick charms like their birthstones or initials to personalise it.

Thanks Lisa, that looks really interesting.

I have emailed them to see what other stuff they have available, as they mainly list chains so am hoping they will do bracelets too!

vjg, do you have any links for pandora bracelets? Have tried googling but they all seem astronomically expensive , is this right?
