CHRISTMAS!
Wow - can't quite believe its "that time" again. This year really has whizzed by. But despite the unseasonally warm weather (here anyway), October is drawing to a close which means that Christmas is not too far off.

NEW!
It's been a rather busy summer for us, but in-between making lots of beautiful fingerprint and handprint jewellery and looking after three small boys, we managed to find a moment to create some new designs. All of the below can be found in our 'New!' edit

FOR FAMILIES
We are often asked what pieces we do for people with more than one child. As we ourselves have three sons, we have always tried to create designs that will incorporate prints from more than one person. We can also often adapt a design so that extra prints can be included, and can deep engrave handprints, footprints and ink fingerprints on both sides of a charm or pendant.

Kind words
It's been a very busy time for us recently, in the run up to father's day. We work very long days during these busy periods, so it's always a boost to receive positive feedback from our customers letting us know that they love their fingerprint jewellery. We spend so long making each piece from start to finish, that we feel like a little bit of ourselves go into them.

from the heart
This week we were asked why we don't use silver clay to make our jewellery, and it got us thinking of how much we have progressed since we started making fingerprint jewellery, back in 2012. These days we either fabricate our jewellery from solid metal, the old fashioned way, using saws and drills, files and flames, or we capture exquisitely detailed life size fingerprint

FATHER'S DAY GIFTS
Father’s Day is the perfect day to say to show Dad how amazing he is, and to say thank you for all the little things he does for your family, day in and day out. I know that our little family would be lost without Daddy, for a start, no one else seems to know how to stack the dishwasher! Finding a thoughtful gift for those special men in your life can be tricky, the men in

NEW PERSONALISED PRINTS
We have a couple of new personalised print designs, both inspired a little by my own childhood I must admit. The first is our 'Sand between your toes' print, which is seaside inspired.
AS UNIQUE AS YOU
From time to time we post up a photo of us at work in the studio as we think its nice for people to see what actually goes into making their jewellery. One question that seems to crop up with each photo of us at work, is 'how do we tell whose print is whose'.
CHRISTMAS HOLS
We have been very busy over the last few weeks making lots and lots of jewellery, all destined to be given as Christmas presents. We are beginning to understand how Santa's elves must feel!

THANK YOU
Just wanted to pop a little note thanking our customers who have supported us over the years, and also to thank those of you who still shopped with us on Black Friday, despite us deciding to not discount our work. This enabled us to make a donation to the National Autistic Society as promised :)

NO BLACK FRIDAY - WE PREFER RAINBOWS
Black Friday is looming - signalling a weekend of slashed prices at many large retailers, but not here at Hold upon Heart. You see, it really doesn't make sense for a small business like ours, where each product is carefully hand made to order. We will however, be donating 10% of our sales made on Black Friday to the National Autistic Society, a charity close to our hearts.
