Handmade Gifts for Her

A caffeine molecule, laser-engraved on real hardwood. The universal symbol for "don't talk to me yet." Clip it to your keys, your bag, or your coffee-stained lanyard. Lightweight and durable with a metal split ring.

Each keychain is laser-engraved in Hamilton, Ohio from sustainably sourced hardwood. Natural grain means no two are identical.

A matched wood set with real personality. This bundle pairs my Art Deco wood earrings with a wood bar necklace with a metal inlay drop, two grainy, handmade pieces that wear well together for everyday or as a gift.

Materials and craft

I cut every piece from solid hardwood, inlay the necklace bar by hand, and finish each one with food-safe oil and beeswax. Pick your earring wood, your necklace base wood, and whether the necklace inlay is sterling silver or brass. Made in my one-person studio in Hamilton, Ohio.

What is included

• Earrings: One pair of Art Deco wood drop earrings on sterling silver earwires, in walnut or maple
• Necklace: One wood bar necklace with a metal inlay, on an adjustable 18 to 20 inch sterling silver chain
• Necklace base wood: Walnut, redheart, orangeheart, olivewood, cedar, or purpleheart
• Necklace metal: Sterling silver or brass, set into the wood
• Hardware: Hypoallergenic, nickel-free earwires
• Finish: Hand-finished with food-safe oil and beeswax
• Made to order: Ships in 3 to 5 business days
• Packaging: Arrives on a plantable seed paper card that grows wildflowers; add a gift box at checkout
• Made in: Hamilton, Ohio

Care: Keep both pieces dry, wipe with a soft cloth, and refresh the wood now and then with a drop of food-safe mineral oil or wood butter.

Buying the set costs less than the two pieces separately. Because every wood has its own grain, no two sets look exactly alike, which makes this an easy anniversary, birthday, or thank-you gift.

Gives back: Every order plants 2 trees, recovers 6 ocean-bound plastic bottles, and protects 20 bees through Greenspark.

Small, warm, and a little fierce. I cut this flame-shaped stud from solid hardwood and set it on a hypoallergenic sterling silver post, so it stays light enough for every day but catches the eye up close.

The wood is sustainably sourced, and the grain runs differently through every pair.

Some nights you never want to lose. Give me a date, a time, and a place, and I engrave the exact night sky from that moment onto a solid wood pendant, then send you a preview before I make anything. It hangs on a sterling silver chain, so the sky you remember goes with you instead of sitting in a drawer.

How I personalize your star map

• You give me a location, a date, and a time
• I generate that exact sky and send you a preview to approve
• Once you approve it, I engrave it on solid wood and finish it by hand

Materials and craft

The pendant is solid Maple or Olivewood, cut and engraved in my one-person studio in Hamilton, Ohio. Maple keeps the sky crisp and high-contrast; Olivewood brings a warm golden grain that makes every chart feel a little different. The chain is genuine sterling silver, adjustable from 18 to 20 inches. I finish each piece with food-safe oil and beeswax and check it by hand before it ships.

Details

• Pendant: approximately 1 inch, solid wood (Maple or Olivewood)
• Chain: sterling silver, adjustable 18 to 20 inches
• Finish: food-safe oil and beeswax
• Personalization: your date, time, and place, with a preview before I engrave
• Made to order: ships in 5 to 7 business days after you approve the preview
• Packaging: ships on a plantable seed paper card; add a gift box at checkout and it still ships on the seed paper
• Made in: Hamilton, Ohio

Care

Keep it dry when you can and wipe it with a soft cloth. If the wood ever looks thirsty, refresh it with a drop of food-safe mineral oil or my Wood Butter. With basic care it holds up for years.

A meaningful gift

Wood is the traditional fifth-anniversary gift, which makes a star map of your wedding night, or the night you met, a natural choice. It also marks a birth, an engagement, or any date you do not want to forget.

Gives back: every order plants 2 trees, recovers 6 ocean-bound plastic bottles, and protects 20 bees through Greenspark.
