This February at our biggest tradeshow in Tucson, we received customer requests for a variety of jewelry charms: a cheer leading megaphone, a howling wolf, baby shoes and a baby carriage, a water polo ball and a soccer ball, and a head of garlic, just to name a few. One of the most often requested items were more stamping blanks in different shapes. Stamping, where small steel letters are used to create an impression in metal, is a huge trend right now. It allows for customization and a way to tell a personal story. Many mothers wear pendants stamped with their children’s initials; an anniversary date can be stamped onto a heart; or a short uplifting poem can be stamped onto a jewelry charm and worn on a bracelet as motivation to “begin again” or “enjoy the journey”.
In response to the numerous requests we received, we have designed a line of stamping blanks that provide an elegant palette for expressing personal sentiments. They are 19 gauge thick – nice and substantial for receiving stamped letters. Two of the charms feature 24k gold plate accents. For instructions on stamping, visit our classroom.

Great new stamping blank silver jewelry charms!
Upcoming dog bone charms in the making.
I think these are going to be great. Congratulations they are beautiful!

We always appreciate suggestions – they’re a great jumping off point for creating new items. I’m also excited to get these new charms in stock as I’ve been making some personalized stamp jewelry for myself! It seems like everywhere I look, I see shapes that would make great stamping blanks – window shutters, the pointed arches on the porch across the street, the paisley shape of a serving dish, etc.
