My darling husband, if you’re reading this, I WANT THIS for my non-cheesy present for Valentine’s day. You send in your child’s drawing and this wonderful jeweler, Mia van Beek, makes a piece of jewelry from it. Prices start at $59 and the process is really easy. So, so cool.

special gift – special request

My friend Mia gave me this delightful bracelet the other day, as a belated holiday gift and thank you token. I am especially enthralled with the fig leaf charm, which is a silver replica of my leaf print. Mia is a talented goldsmith and jewelry designer, specializing in beautiful wedding and engagement rings and elegant pendants. Last year she also introduced an adorable line of jewelry that can be customized from your child's drawings. Thank you for my treasure Mia!

Make Jewelry Out of Your Child’s Art!

December 20th, 2009

We’re simply all over this one – turn your child’s drawings, doodles and even masterpieces into one-of-a-kind wearable art!  Made especially for you from award winning designer Mia Van Beek at Formia Design.   

It’s easy.  Simply email your child’s drawing to Formia, and they’ll design a replica that is beautifully built into a pendant, bracelet, key chain, or earrings. Prices vary with customization, but generally fall in the $100-$200 range.  Fabulous – that’s what we think of this idea!

But, it doesn’t stop there!  How about taking your business logo and making it into a keychain ~ cute, cute, cute!!
