Bonus Details From a Grateful Owner

Handmade freebies and gift boxes

The first time I ever ordered from Etsy, I was deeply touched by the attention to detail—the handcrafted piece, the thoughtful packaging, and the personal note that accompanied my order. When I opened my own Etsy shop, I set out to give my customers that same meaningful experience.

I’ve long been passionate about repurposing and upcycling to create something new, and that philosophy is at the heart of New Life Jewelry. While I’m shifting to a new platform, I’ve intentionally chosen to carry forward the culture of personal touches that has always mattered to me.

Every jewelry box you receive is embellished by me, and the bookmarks and charms are also handmade. From my (trademark pending) logo, name, colors, and photography to nearly every creative detail of the business, this work is a true reflection of my creative energy—though being married to a tech nerd certainly helps!

I genuinely love what I do. It’s a passionate hobby and a heartfelt labor of love. I care deeply for my customers and hope each person feels the gratitude behind the “bonus” touches—small gestures meant to say "thank you" for every single order.

Thank you for your continued support and for allowing me to do what I love.
