Memories Made in Silver - Personalised Gifts

I always think personalised gifts are a lovely thing to both give and receive and not just at Christmas!  As my name is hypenated and my son has a name that seems to be unusual in the UK I struggle to find personalised items but no longer!

Memories Made in Silver is owned by the lovely Karen, she sells handcrafted and personalised items in both silver and pottery. She always provides excellent customer service and I cannot recommend her enough (and no I'm not getting paid for this post!).
Karen creates handcrafted bespoke silver fingerprint jewellery, each piece goes through 13 stages and is 99.9% pure silver.  The fingerprint charms can be attached to keyrings, bracelets, necklaces etc.  Prices range from £35 to £55 for the charms.
I think these are fantastic prices for something that you will treasure forever, I will be ordering charms in the new year and I like the idea of putting them on a bracelet.

You can read all about the silver process here and you can find a list of prices here.
Karen creates casts of hands and feet, they come in two finishes bronze or opal pearl.  Look at the detail on that cast! It would make a perfect present for parents of a new born or for newly weds.

Prices range from £30-£65 and you can find the information here.
Karen also commissions pottery items, from personalised plates to vases to mugs. 

This picture is of a plate made for a friend for her special birthday, Karen used the personal messages to create a wonderful personal keepsake.

There is a gallery of pictures on the website that you can view here.

You can find Karen on Facebook or email her at karen@memoriesmadeinsilver.co.uk

I did try and add some pics of items I have had from Karen but blogger is playing up! I will add them ASAP!
